Experimental and Numerical Analysis of a 10 MW Floating Offshore Wind Turbine in Regular Waves
Floating offshore wind turbines (FOWTs) experience fluctuations in their platforms, owing to the various wave and wind conditions. These fluctuations not only decrease the output of the wind power generation system, but also increase the fatigue load of ...

Initial Motion in Combined Wave and Current Flows
Measurements are presented of the conditions for the initial motion of sediment under combined steady and oscillatory flow. The measurements were made in a steady flow flume with an oscillating tray set into its bed. The direction of oscillation of the tray was at right angles to the axis of the steady flow flume.

Measurement of Sediment Suspension in Combinations of Waves and Currents
The paper describes a procedure for obtaining field data on the mean concentration of sediments in combination of waves and currents outside the breaker zone, as well as some results of such measurements. It is assumed that the current turbulence alone is responsible for the maintenance of the concentration profile above a thin layer close to the ...

Semantic and Syntactic Processing During Comprehension: ERP Evidence From Chinese QING Structure
Previous studies used BA and BEI structures as stimuli to infer that syntax-first models seemed not applicable in Chinese. However, there were inconsistent results of both within same structures and between different structures. Since sentence structures

Combined Wave-Current Forces on Horizontal Cylinders
Some early results are reported from an investigation of the forces exerted on horizontal cylinders by waves and currents. It appears that the values of the inertia coefficients decrease as U/uQ increases, and the drag coefficients decrease also, for values of U/uQ up to 0.7.

Vertical Momentum Transport by Internal Gravity Waves Above the Equatorial Undercurrent at 140°W
Strong vertical shears occur in the upper Equatorial Ocean as the trade winds drive the South Equatorial Current westward above the eastward flowing Equatorial Undercurrent.
