Sea surface displacement (SSD) is a crucial parameter in environmental engineering. The measurements of SSD are susceptible to the failure of instruments and equipment, data losses, and other unpredictable events. In this study, we developed an innovative nonlinear regression trees (NRT) technique to retrieve the missing data of SSD.

The experimental test setup was a unique construction installed in the flume tank equipped with advanced flow generating and measuring systems. The test setup consisted of a bearing mounted platform with rotor drive and sensors measuring the hydrodynamic force.
