Geophysics-based method of locating a stationary earth object

A geophysics-based method for determining the position of a stationary earth object uses the periodic changes in the gravity vector of the earth caused by the sun- and moon-orbits. Because the local gravity field is highly irregular over a global scale, a model of local tidal accelerations can be compared to actual accelerometer measurements to determine the latitude and longitude of the stationary object.

Wave-powered water wheel type generator

A Styrofoam-filled plastic cylinder that has collapsible paddle wheel fins attached about the circumference. Two shafts extend from the ends of the cylinder. The shafts are held by bearings. The bearings are attached to a frame structure that is embedded into the seabed. The shafts then extend past the bearings and are connected to a gear drive system that, in turn, connected to generators or other mechanical devices. When installed in the sea, the cylinder will turn in the swells / tidal action for as long as the ocean produces waves. Platforms on either side of the cylinder rise and fall with tidal action to maintain effective contact with the water at all times. Moreover, because the structure is positioned at or near the water surface, maintenance is much simpler for this device.

Tide predicting method

The invention relates to a tide predicting method for the tide is influenced by various factors, including cyclical factors, such as tidal generation force, and non-cyclical factors, such as wind power, atmospheric pressure, coast characteristics, rainfall, dip angles of the lunar orbit and the like. The predicting accuracy of the traditional harmonic analysis method is influenced by partial tide number, and the traditional harmonic analysis method cannot analyze the influence of non-cyclical factors; the artificial neural network method developed recent years overcomes the defect that the non-cyclical factors cannot be predicted by the harmonic analysis method to a certain extent, but has great data volume required by study training samples and wide involve range, can cover various possible conditions, but has less station historical data of non-cyclical factors. The invention provides a predict model, wherein factors which influence tide non-cyclically, such as wind directions, rainfall, storm surge, coast characteristics and the like, can be fused into the model, and small sample data can receive more accurate results. In the method, a support vector machine (SVM)-based predict model is established, wherein, an SVM toolbox is imported into MATLAB 7.8; training sample data is trained by utilizing svmtrain function; the formed model is tested by using a test sample svmpredict function; and the trained and tested data can predict the tide in the same tide test station.
