A new cloaking scheme could protect boats in harbours or ports from ocean waves. (Courtesy: S Curtis) A wave-damping scheme that draws on the principles behind the much vaunted “invisibility shields” ...
Could a seabed carpet be coming to a beach near you? A synthetic “seabed carpet” that mimics the wave-damping effect of a muddy seafloor could be used to extract energy from waves passing over it, ...
(1) This article summarizes and analyzes the implementation methods of active damping corresponding to various virtual resistor placement positions, and provides suggestions for simplifying the design ...
The shive wave machine is a torsional oscillator consisting of many rods attached to a twisting wire. Many aspects of waves can be seen with it, including travelling waves, wave speed, and ...
