Stephanie&#8217;s work builds upon our <a href=\"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/mdl\/publications\/\">previous research<\/a> involving wavemakers that were designed to aid in <a href=\"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/mdl\/research\/marine\/\">launch and recovery operations and towed body dynamics<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<h4>Project Description:<\/h4>\n<p>To study advanced marine engineering applications such as ship motion and tow-body dynamics, reproducing the free surface of the ocean on a laboratory scale is essential. The study and validation of wavemakers is therefore critical to generate accurate results. Of the existing wavemakers, plunger-types are the only wavemakers that allow for flow across its boundary; however, research has focused on water without a steady current. The proposed research therefore aims to determine how the inclusion of a steady water current impacts the design and operation of a plunger-type wavemaker.<\/p>\n<p>The influence of the input parameters, including the water current, on the output of the theoretical plunger-type wavemaker model will also be investigated through a sensitivity analysis. Insight to the wavemaker model&#8217;s behaviour will allow for improvements to the wavemaker&#8217;s theoretical and experimental design. Investigation of the influence of water current on the plunger-type wavemaker will contribute an important advancement to marine engineering applications. The work will also assist the applicant&#8217;s current M.A.Sc. research which focuses on using a stereo-vision camera to quantify the free surface of the ocean in real-time. Ocean technology is a priority research area in Canada and the outcome of the proposed project will provide meaningful knowledge towards future studies on plunger-type wavemakers. The work will impact both academic and industrial research where the inclusion of a steady water current is important. Additionally, the skills and knowledge gained by the applicant through the project will provide useful and transferable skills to the multibillion-dollar maritime industry in Canada.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We are very proud that Stephanie Lowell has just received a Mitacs Research Training Award (RTA) &#8212; Congratulations!
