Using Data to Tune Nearshore Dynamics Models: A Bayesian Approach with Parametric Likelihood
Nusret Balci, Juan M. Restrepo, Shankar C. Venkataramani
We propose a modification of a maximum likelihood procedure for tuning parameter values in models, based upon the comparison of their output to field data. Our methodology, which u…
Optical beam shaping and diffraction free waves: a variational approach
John A. Gemmer, Shankar C. Venkataramani, Charles G. Durfee +1
We investigate the problem of shaping radially symmetric annular beams into desired intensity patterns along the optical axis. Within the Fresnel approximation, we show that this p…
Nearshore sticky waters
Juan M. Restrepo, Shankar C. Venkataramani, Clint Dawson
Wind- and current-driven flotsam, oil spills, pollutants, and nutrients, approaching the nearshore will frequently appear to park just beyond the break zone, where waves break. Mor…
