Early Detection Mitigation Tsunami by Acoustic-Gravity Waves – Supervisor: Dr Usama Kadri

Title of project:
Early detection & mitigation tsunami by acoustic-gravity waves

Code:
UK2122D

Supervisor:
Dr Usama Kadri

Project description:
Acoustic-gravity waves (AGWs) are compression-type waves propagating with amplitudes governed by the restoring force of gravity. They are generated, by wind-wave interactions, surface wave interactions, and movements of the tectonic lithosphere plates. They travel at the speed of sound in water carrying information on their source. Employing AWG theory we aim to improve current sea-state warning systems with a particular focus on early detection and mitigation of tsunami.

Project offered as double module, single module, or both:
