Search and Rescue (SAR) at sea is one of the most important humanitarian activities and also an extremely complex operation based on the coordination of each unit within search and rescue event. Taking real equipments to do SAR rehearsal has many disadvantages such as high cost and great danger. In order to overcome these shortcomings and enhance the flexibility and the collaborative ability of each...
A new method for nearshore wave simulating is introduced. Firstly, parabolic mild-slope equations are set up according to the simulation area and input waves. After solving the equations, the integral wave parameters such as the root mean square wave height, the peak wave period and the mean wave direction can be calculated. Instantaneous surface elevations can also be obtained from the model. Then,...
Based on the previous work of modeling dynamic 3D cloud using Cellular Automata, this paper renders realistic 3D cloud for Marine Search and Rescue Simulator visual system in real-time. Physically based light interaction is implemented by Open Scene Graph with a common PC. Light scattering and absorbing is considered. After the 3D cloud integrated into the visual scene, experimental results show that...
