This paper reviews research in ocean engineering over the last 50+ years with the aim to (I)
understand the technological challenges and evolution in the field,(II) investigate whether …

Propeller wake instability mechanisms are investigated using the improved detached-eddy
and large-eddy simulation approaches under heavy loading condition. Simulations involving …

Modal decomposition techniques, flow field, and spectral analysis are employed to
investigate the wake dynamics and destabilization mechanisms of a four-bladed marine …

Contra-rotating propellers (CRPs) are widely used in different kinds of underwater vessels,
owing to their excellent stability, propulsive efficiency, and balanced torque distribution …

In many aeronautics and marine applications, the unsteady forces generated by propulsion
rotors due to turbulence ingestion are a significant source of noise and create serious …

This research aims to extend our understanding of propeller wake dynamics under a light
loading condition, thereby laying a foundation for design optimization and flow control of the …

Severe wake-structure interaction induces intense vibrations and noises. In this study, the
rudder is simplified into a plate fixed at two ends. The vibrations of the plate operating in the …

The propulsor is one of the main noise sources of an underwater vehicle. The pump-jet
operating under hull condition is in a typical non-uniform strong anisotropic turbulent flow …

Pump-jet propulsors, which exhibit high efficiency and low noise, are widely used in
underwater vehicles. In a marine environment, a nonuniform wake and an oblique flow affect …

Autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) provide a unique and cost-effective platform for
conducting ocean acoustic measurements and surveys such as marine mammal monitoring …
