to be done in this area. Face recognition is a problem that scarcely clamoured for attention before the computer age but, having surfaced, has involved a wide range of techniques and has attracted the attention of some fine minds (David Mumford was a Fields Medallist in 1974). This singular application of mathematical modelling to a messy applied problem of obvious utility and importance but with no unique solution is a pretty one to share with students: perhaps, returning to the source of our opening quotation, we may invert Duncan's earlier observation, 'There is an art to find the mind's construction in the face!'.

Waves in Oceanic and Coastal Waters

Oceanic rogue waves are surface gravity waves whose wave heights are much larger than expected for the sea state. The common operational definition requires them to be at least twice as large as the significant wave height. In most circumstances, the properties of rogue waves and their probability of occurrence appear to be consistent with second-order random-wave theory. There are exceptions, although it is unclear whether these represent measurement errors or statistical flukes, or are caused by physical mechanisms not covered by the model. A clear deviation from second-order theory occurs in numerical simulations and wave-tank experiments, in which a higher frequency of occurrence of rogue waves is found in long-crested waves owing to a nonlinear instability.

Four-wave interactions are shown to play an important role in the evolution of the spectrum of surface gravity waves. This fact follows from direct simulations of an ensemble of ocean waves using the Zakharov equation. The theory of homogeneous four-wave interactions, extended to include effects of nonresonant transfer, compares favorably with the ensemble-averaged results of the Monte Carlo simulations. In particular, there is good agreement regarding spectral shape. Also, the kurtosis of the surface elevation probability distribution is determined well by theory even for waves with a narrow spectrum and large steepness. These extreme conditions are favorable for the occurrence of freak waves.

We present a progress report on our work on lattice Boltzmann methods for colloidal suspensions. We focus on the treatment of colloidal particles in binary solvents and on the inclusion of thermal noise. For a benchmark problem of colloids sedimenting and becoming trapped by capillary forces at a horizontal interface between two fluids, we discuss the criteria for parameter selection, and address the inevitable compromise between computational resources and simulation accuracy.

Simulating Colloid Hydrodynamics with Lattice Boltzmann

We simulate by the lattice Boltzmann method the steady shearing of a binary fluid mixture with full hydrodynamics in three dimensions. Contrary to some theoretical scenarios, a dynamical steady state is attained with finite correlation lengths in all three spatial directions. Using large simulations, we obtain at moderately high Reynolds numbers apparent scaling exponents comparable to those found by us previously in two dimensions (2D). However, in 3D there may be a crossover to different behavior at low Reynolds number: accessing this regime requires even larger computational resources than used here.

Binary fluids under steady shear in three dimensions.

Expressions have been derived, from the standpoint of Gaussian random theory, for the joint and marginal distributions of wave envelope amplitude and local wave period when the sampling frequency is equal to the local wave frequency. The new marginal p.d.f. for wave envelope amplitudes shows substantial non-zero probability density at very small amplitudes. The new joint and marginal distributions are found to compare favourably with data obtained from both high frequency measurements of real ocean waves in extreme storms and from measurements of numerical simulations of moderately broadbanded processes with Pierson-Moskowitz spectra. The new p.d.f. of wave envelope amplitudes is found to provide a better approximation to the p.d.f.s of the simulated zero down-crossing wave amplitude than either the traditional Rayleigh p.d.f., applicable for infinitesimal bandwidth; or the narrow bandwidth approximation given by M. S. Longuet-Higgins (Proc. R. Soc. Lond. A, 389: 241-258, 1983). The reason for this improvement is that our method takes into account that small waves are likely to have shorter periods than large waves, rather than assuming a constant wave period. There are, however, limitations to the approach adopted which assumes that the individual wave amplitudes can be obtained from the amplitude of the wave envelope. These limitations become more severe as the bandwidth increases. The results obtained apply not only to sea waves, but to any Gaussian linear random process.
