2. Improving the Accuracy of FFT-based GPGPU Ocean Surface Simulations
University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för data- och informationsteknikAbstract : In this paper, we explore how the current state of the art in real-time ocean simulations can be improved in terms of simulation accuracy, while preserving performance. Current methods, both in academia and in the industry, simulate an ocean model in frequency space on the GPU, convert said model on an approximately frame-byframe basis to the spatial domain using the Fourier transform, and then read back the resulting heightfield to the CPU as input to the application’s physics engine.

3. Wake velocity deficit calculation and wind turbine separation in the forested area using RANS
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaperAbstract : Wake has a high impact on wind turbine performance and durability. Its impact, without a doubt, should be considered in wind resource assessment. However, wakes in the forest is a niche that is only examined by a couple of countries which area has a significant per cent land covered in forests. READ MORE
