Research in ocean engineering is focused on hydrodynamic processes relevant to engineering in the ocean and coastal environment. Current projects include research on wind wave generation, wave breaking, radar scattering from the sea surface, cable deployment, sediment transport modeling, flow over ripples and dunes, scour, and flow separation.
