Numerical simulations are conducted to investigate the near-bed flow behaviors of submarine canyons with periodic ridge-valley topography on continental slopes. In the numerical simulation, two topographic parameters are defined: α represents the basal slope angle of the continental slope, and β denotes the side slope angle of the submarine canyon. The topographic modulation of these two parameters on near-bed flow velocity an...

Proper configuration of aeration tubes is crucial for improving water quality and promoting the welfare and growth of cultured organisms in Recirculating Aquaculture Systems (RASs). To investigate the effects of aeration tube shapes (arc-shaped, disc-shaped, and linear-shaped) and positions (d = r, 1/2r) on performance, this study conducted experiments in a circular RAS tank. Methodologically, feed pellets were used to simulat...

As global aquaculture ventures further into offshore environments, the safe transport of large-scale aquaculture net cages across varied marine conditions has become a critical technical concern. This study conducts a detailed numerical simulation of the wet towing process for an octagonal aquaculture cage using AQWA software, systematically examining the effects of towline length, towing speed, towing configuration, and envir...

The rapid expansion of large-scale aquaculture has created a demand for more efficient and sustainable farming systems. Among these, land-based circular tank aquaculture is emerging as a key solution due to its high efficiency, scalability, and effective waste management capabilities. Optimizing the hydrodynamic characteristics of these tanks is crucial for improving water quality management and ensuring the health of cultured...
