Marinas and single pontoons consists of a floating device
secured to the sea bottom by some means. The company Seaflex AB
(at Stöcksjö nearby Umeå) manufactures mooring systems for these
floating devices, see link.
In a collaboration between the
comapny and the university, new physical models and numerical
simulation techniques have been developed. These should be
combined with state-of-the-art techniques for visual interactive
fluids to produce a simulation tool for demonstrations and
virtual experiments with the mooring system.
The simulation should include
- dynamical sea model based on
recent research results in interactive graphics
- real-time rendering of sea,
pontoon, mooring system and ships
- a gui interface for designing
demonstrarion scenarios and experiments
- of objects by computation of
bouance forces from the wavy sea surface
Previous
experience
Student
should have good knowledge from the field visual interactive
simulation.
