معرفی
Haoyu Ding is a Researcher in the Department of Architecture & Civil Engineering at the University of Bath. His work contributes to UN Sustainable Development Goals related to affordable and clean energy and climate action. He holds a PhD from the University of Bath, supervised by Jun Zang and Colin Blenkinsopp, focusing on integrated wave energy converter-breakwater systems. His research interests include coastal engineering, fluid dynamics, and machine learning applications in structural analysis.
Key areas of study include nonlinear wave loading on offshore structures, floating solar systems, and hydroelastic responses under extreme wave conditions. He has published widely in journals like Coastal Engineering and Physics of Fluids, with notable work on Gaussian process models for predicting wave forces on vertical cylinders. His research is funded by EPSRC grants, including the SEASWALLOWS project investigating severe storm wave loads on offshore wind turbines.
Collaborations include institutions such as the University of Oxford and DTU (Denmark), leveraging computational fluid dynamics and experimental facilities. His contributions address challenges in renewable energy infrastructure resilience and marine structural integrity.
