The level set methodology for time-optimal path planning is employed to predict collision- free and fastest-time trajectories for swarms of underwater vehicles deployed in the …
As the concurrent use of multiple autonomous vehicles in ocean missions grows, systematic control for their coordinated operation is becoming a necessity. Many ocean vehicles …
We derive and apply a methodology for the initialization of velocity and transport fields in complex multiply-connected regions with multiscale dynamics. The result is initial fields that …
Predicting outcomes of marine disease outbreaks presents a challenge in the face of both global and local stressors. Host-associated microbiomes may play important roles in …
The widely-used Global Positioning System (GPS) does not work underwater. This presents a severe limitation on the communication capabilities and deployment options for undersea …
With advances in engineering and technology, mining the deep sea for untapped rare metal resources from the bottom of the ocean has recently become economically viable. However …
To cleanup marine plastics, accurate modeling is needed. We outline and illustrate a new partial-differential-equation methodology for characterizing and modeling plastic transports …
The reliability of sonar systems in the littoral environment is greatly affected by the variability of the surrounding nonlinear ocean dynamicS. This variability occurs on multiple scales in …
