wave breakers and ballast anchors to ensure stability in varying conditions. Flexible cableways allow the structure to adapt to fluctuating water levels and high winds. Additionally, the project hosts ...
Waves and water are inseparable—but what if you could manipulate the waves to move floating objects? A team of international ...
As detailed in a study published in early February in the journal Nature, the researchers used waves to accomplish tricks such as holding the floating objects in place or inducing them to follow ...
The idea was inspired by earlier work involving light that was conducted by Shen Yijie. A co-lead on the new project, Yijie ...
"We've shown that water waves can be used to precisely move floating objects as small as rice grains. Future research could study even smaller waves such as those on the scale of cells that are ...
A team of scientists at the Shanghai Jiao Tong University in China has assessed the resistance to waves and mechanical stress of a membrane-based floating photovoltaic platform for applications in ...
The RP FLIP – short for Floating Instrument Platform – was ... the stern helps to keep the RP FLIP upright even during heavy waves. The inside of the ship looks particularly strange, as ...
The scientists placed a small floating polyethylene foam ball in the water tank and observed how the ball moved when the waves were produced. Balls ranging from 4.8mm to 12.7mm in diameter were ...
This ambitious project is making waves in the renewable energy sector ... that's as impressive as it is innovative. TPREL's 126 MW floating solar project features 213,460 bifacial glass-to ...
