Passive wake detection using seal whisker-inspired sensing
… display the harbor seal's ability to track the wake of an object several seconds after it swam by. In this work, I elucidate the basic fluid mechanisms that seals may employ to accomplish this detection. Key are the unique vortex-induced vibration (VIV) properties resulting from the geometry of …

Passive wake detection using seal whisker-inspired sensing
… harbor seal's extraordinary ability to track the wake of an object several seconds after it has swum by. They do so despite having auditory and visual cues blocked, pointing to use of their whiskers as sensors of minute water movements. In this work, I elucidate the basic uid mechanisms that seals …

Machine Learning and Data Fusion of Simulated Remote Sensing Data
… workflow to develop a means of simulating a ship wake followed by simulated synthetic aperture radar (SAR) and infra-red (IR) images of these ship wakes. A parametric study across several different ocean environments and simulated remote sensing platforms is conducted to generate a preliminary …

Dynamic wind turbine wake trajectory control: Strategies and real-time validation
… power production enhancements using yaw-based wake steering. However, slower yaw actuation rates compared to inflow change rate cause time-varying downstream-rotor-wake overlap conditions, diminishing its benefits. To accommodate for inflow variations, closed-loop wake control can be an …
