Project Description | The structural dynamics of the aquaculture farms in unsteady flow are essential to assess the performance and resilience of aquaculture farms in environmental change. Moreover, the feedback of the aquaculture farms to the flow is significant for the environment, ecology, and coastal management, such as hydrodynamics impacts, habitat resilience, nutrient transportation, wave attenuation, coastal erosion control, etc. The computational fluid dynamics (CFD) method is used to analyze the interaction between aquaculture farms and the flow. The longline aquaculture farms such as kelp farms and mussel farms are consisting of multiple flexible structures such as mussel droppers and kelp blades. Considering hundreds or thousands of large deformed structures in the fluid-structure interaction (FSI) computing is time-consuming. Therefore, computer science research and parallel computing implementation are essential to make progress on this project. The computer science aspects we initially envision are converting the FSI code to c++ from MATLAB, as well as parallelizing the code. If you have any ideas beyond that, we would love to hear them. |
