Xiao, Q. (author), Calvert, R. (author), Yan, S.Q. (author), Adcock, T.A.A. (author), van den Bremer, T.S. (author)Floating objects will drift due to the action of surface gravity waves. This drift will depart from that of a perfect Lagrangian tracer due to both viscous effects (non-potential flow) and wave–body interaction (potential flow). We examine the drift of freely floating objects in regular (non-breaking) deep-water wave fields for object sizes that...journal article 2024

Zhang, Tianming (author), Yan, Gaowei (author), Li, Rong (author), Xiao, Shuyi (author), Pang, Y. (author)The industrially collected process data usually exhibit non-Gaussian and multi-mode characteristics. Due to sensor failures, irregular disturbances, and transmission problems, there are unavoidable outliers that make the data exhibit heavy-tailed characteristics. To this end, a variational auto-encoder regression method based on the mixture...journal article 2024
