Dynamic soaring mechanisms in the ocean boundary layer (2016)
Journal Article

Copyright © 2016 Inderscience Enterprises Ltd. Dynamic soaring is a flying technique which extracts energy from an environment where wind gradients form, such as the air-sea interface above oceans that sees such gradients developing through multiple...

An improved local remeshing algorithm for moving boundary problems (2016)
Journal Article

© 2016 The Author(s). Three issues are tackled in this study to improve the robustness of local remeshing techniques. Firstly, the local remeshing region (hereafter referred to as ‘hole’) is initialized by removing low-quality elements and then conti...
