Meet USC: Admission Presentation, Campus Tour, & Engineering Talk
Fri, Oct 18, 2013
Viterbi School of Engineering Undergraduate Admission
Receptions & Special Events
This half day program is designed for prospective freshmen and family members. Meet USC includes an information session on the University and the Admission process; a student led walking tour of campus and a meeting with us in the Viterbi School. Meet USC is designed to answer all of your questions about USC, the application process and financial aid. Reservations are required for Meet USC. This program occurs twice, once at 8:30 a.m. and again at 12:30 p.m. Please visit https://esdweb.esd.usc.edu/unresrsvp/MeetUSC.aspx to check availability and make an appointment. Be sure to list an Engineering major as your "intended major" on the webform!

Design of a Hydraulic-Control Wave-Maker (HCW) for the Study of Oceanographic Flows
This study aims to verify new approach to generate and absorb waves by using a system termed the Hydraulic-Control Wave-maker (HCW). The experimental device would eventually permit the study of multi-scale and vertically-variable oceanographic flows. The HCW has upstream and downstream flume boundaries composed of an adjustable set of vertical chambers. Each chamber is connected to an individual pump control system, such that the vertical distribution of flow is entirely controllable. In this study, a numerical tank with a HCW is created with OpenFOAM�, and results are compared with various analytical solutions. To generate sine wave and solitary wave, horizontal particle velocity from linear wave theory and solitary wave theory are used. The optimized HCW is investigated through sensitivity analyses with respect to baffle length, height, number and position. The method of wave absorption is applied by the similar technique with wave generation to downstream boundary. For the application to deal with wave absorption in practical, numerical analyses that the velocity profile from any station to outlet boundary can be shifted by using wave celerity are performed.
Refreshments is served following the seminar in KAP 147
