Professor Mike Motley’s research team, Dakota Mascarenas, graduate student, and undergraduate Abbey Serrone, an undergraduate, traveled from University of Washington down to Oregon State to conduct a suite of tsunami-debris experiments in the facility’s large wave flume. The pair offer advice for engineering students who want to do hands-on research. They talk about working with the NHERI at OSU team and what it is like working on a (nearly) all-female research group.Related Links: NHERI Coastal Wave/Surge and Tsunami Experimental Facility Tsunami Debris Experiments in the OSU Large Wave FlumeOrder from Chaos: A Statistical Approach to Predicting Tsunami Debris Flow
