Buoyancy and Stability for Submerged and Floating Bodies01:11

Buoyancy and Stability for Submerged and Floating Bodies

In fluid mechanics, buoyancy and stability are key concepts for understanding the behavior of submerged and floating bodies. When a stationary body is fully or partially submerged in a fluid, the fluid exerts a force on the body known as the buoyant force. This force acts vertically upward through a point called the center of buoyancy, which is the center of the displaced fluid volume. According to Archimedes' principle, the magnitude of the buoyant force is equal to the weight of the fluid...
Uniform Depth Channel Flow01:27

Uniform Depth Channel Flow

Uniform depth channel flow keeps fluid depth consistent along channels such as irrigation canals. In natural channels, such as rivers, approximate uniform flow is often assumed. This condition occurs when the channel’s bottom slope matches the energy slope, balancing potential energy lost from gravity with head loss due to shear stress. This balance prevents depth changes along the channel length, resulting in a steady, uniform flow.Uniform flow in open channels with a constant cross-section...
Buoyancy01:12

Buoyancy

When an object is placed in a fluid, it either floats or sinks. All objects in a fluid experience a buoyant force. For example, a metal ball sinks, while a rubber ball floats. Similarly, a submarine can sink and float by adjusting its buoyancy.  The concept of buoyancy raises several interesting questions. For instance, where does this buoyant force come from? How much buoyant force is required to make an object sink or float? Do objects that sink get any support at all from the fluid? 
To get...
Deep Sea Microbial Ecology01:18

Deep Sea Microbial Ecology

The deep ocean and its underlying sediments represent vast, largely unexplored microbial habitats that extend far beyond the sunlit photic zone. The photic (euphotic) zone typically spans the upper ~100–200 meters of pelagic waters in the open ocean, but its depth varies geographically and seasonally, where sufficient light supports photosynthetic life. Below this lies the deep sea, spanning roughly 1000–6000 meters (bathypelagic to abyssal zones), with deeper hadal trenches extending beyond...
Uniform Depth Channel Flow: Problem Solving01:18

Uniform Depth Channel Flow: Problem Solving

To calculate the flow rate for a trapezoidal channel, first, identify the bottom width, side slope, and flow depth of the channel. The cross-sectional area (A) corresponding to the depth of flow (y), channel bottom width (B), and side slope (θ) is determined by:Next, calculate the wetted perimeter, which includes the bottom width and the sloped side lengths in contact with the water. Using the values of the cross-sectional area and the wetted perimeter, determine the hydraulic radius by...
Multiple Pipe Systems01:21

Multiple Pipe Systems

Multipipe systems consist of complex configurations of interconnected pipes designed to transport fluids efficiently across intricate networks. They are essential in engineering applications requiring precise control over flow distribution, pressure, and head loss. They are categorized into series, parallel, loop, and network configurations, each distinguished by unique flow characteristics and applications.
Series Configuration
In a series configuration, fluid flows sequentially from one pipe...

Area of Science:

  • Underwater acoustics
  • Wireless communication systems
  • Signal processing

Background:

  • Previous passive multiuser communication systems in shallow water operated in the 3-4 kHz band using time reversal.
  • Existing systems faced limitations in bandwidth and user capacity.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To extend experimental results for passive multiuser communications in shallow water.
  • To investigate the impact of increased bandwidth, different shaping pulses, and adaptive time reversal with spatial nulling.
  • To assess performance degradation and data rate improvements with multiple users.

  • Employed a larger bandwidth (11-19 kHz) and higher frequencies.
  • Examined raised cosine and linear frequency modulation (LFM) chirp shaping pulses.
  • Applied adaptive time reversal with spatial nulling to mitigate user crosstalk.

Main Results:

  • Increased bandwidth proved beneficial for communication performance.
  • The time reversal receiver effectively managed intersymbol interference with low computational cost.
  • Each additional user caused approximately 4 dB performance degradation, offset by a linear increase in data rate.

  • Passive multiuser communication in shallow water can achieve high data rates using wider bandwidths and adaptive time reversal.
  • An aggregate data rate of 60 kbits/s was demonstrated with three users over 2.2 km using 16-QAM modulation.
  • The system shows potential for efficient underwater data transmission with scalable user capacity.
