Forum MH370: From Sea to Space Research
21 February 2025 – The Institute for Mathematical Research (INSPEM) organized a forum titled From Sea to Space Research, Acoustic-Gravity Waves Theory & Application – Insights From MH370 on 21 February 2025 (Friday) at Al-Farabi Seminar Room, INSPEM. The forum featured two invited panelists: Dr. Usama Kadri from the School of Mathematics, Cardiff University, UK, and Prof. Dr. Alyani Ismail, Director of i-Putra UPM, Professor at the Faculty of Engineering, UPM. The session was moderated by Prof. Ir. Dr. Aduwati Sali, Director of the Institute for Mathematical Research (INSPEM), UPM.
The research discussed in this forum focused on the application of the Acoustic-Gravity Waves (AGW) theory in further understanding the disappearance of MH370. The forum also explored how acoustic-gravity waves can be utilized in locating objects in the ocean and other applications related to space exploration.
Dr. Usama Kadri presented his research on how AGW can assist in detecting and tracking events such as aircraft disappearances. He explained how these waves can travel long distances across the ocean and atmosphere, providing crucial clues in the search for MH370.
Meanwhile, Prof. Dr. Alyani Ismail discussed the engineering and technological aspects that can be leveraged in data processing and sensor applications to enhance monitoring and search capabilities in the future.
The forum also examined challenges and future potential in related research fields, emphasizing the importance of an interdisciplinary approach in solving the mystery of MH370’s disappearance.
