学术访问
2026 年 4 月 20 日,国际海洋波浪研究专家 Frédéric Dias 教授访问宁波东方理工大学,并作题为 Ocean Waves: The Perfect Example of a Mathematically Challenging Problem 的学术报告。
Dias 教授长期从事波浪动力学、极端海浪和海洋新能源等方向研究,工作融合应用数学、物理与工程方法。
讲座与交流
报告围绕海洋波浪的跨尺度特征和相关数学挑战展开,涉及多尺度耦合、非线性演化以及极端波浪的形成与发展,并展示理论分析、数值模拟和现场观测相结合的研究范式。
随后,Dias 教授参观海洋可持续发展实验室,并与团队成员围绕气象海啸、漂浮式光伏结构及其水动力特性、新概念海洋工程装备等方向开展讨论,同时交流未来研究合作的可能性。
学术联系
本次访问由韦雁机助理教授邀请。Dias 教授为韦雁机博士阶段导师,双方长期保持学术合作。
Academic visit
On April 20, 2026, ocean-wave researcher Prof. Frédéric Dias visited Eastern Institute of Technology, Ningbo and delivered a lecture titled Ocean Waves: The Perfect Example of a Mathematically Challenging Problem.
Prof. Dias works across wave dynamics, extreme waves, and marine renewable energy, combining applied mathematics, physics, and engineering approaches.
Lecture and exchange
The lecture addressed the multiscale nature of ocean waves and associated mathematical challenges, including scale coupling, nonlinear evolution, and extreme-wave formation. It highlighted research approaches that combine theory, numerical modelling, and field observations.
Dias also visited Sustainable Ocean Lab and discussed meteotsunamis, floating photovoltaic structures and hydrodynamics, and new ocean-engineering concepts with lab members, as well as possible directions for future collaboration.
Academic connection
The visit was invited by Assistant Professor Yanji Wei. Prof. Dias supervised Wei during his doctoral studies, and the two have maintained a long-standing academic collaboration.
