Vertical Loads on Drag Embedment Anchors

Offshore Technology Conference, 1994
ABSTRACT As industry moves into deeper water and economical solutions for mooring systems are sought, anchor systems capable of withstanding vertical loads are needed. Current industry standards and API recommendations constrain a mooring line to be tangent to the seabed when a drag embedment anchor is used.

Effects of Curved Wind Barrier on the Aerodynamic Characteristics of a Train–Bridge System and Its Static Wind Load

International Journal of Structural Stability and Dynamics, 2022
Wind barriers are important measures that guarantee the running safety of high-speed trains under crosswind conditions, however, they can change the aerodynamic coefficients of a train–bridge system and the distribution of the flow field around a train ...

Behavior of drag anchor under uni-directional loading and combined loading

Ocean Engineering, 2017
Abstract Drag anchor is an economical foundation option for offshore floating structures. Although there are studies on ultimate pullout capacity of drag anchors, the drag-in installation process is still not fully understood. The approach using yield envelopes for drag anchor under combined loading for the installation behavior prediction is ...

Non Planar Span Loads for Minimum Induced Drag

49th AIAA Aerospace Sciences Meeting including the New Horizons Forum and Aerospace Exposition, 2011
Future transport category aircraft for both military and commercial customers will need to offer significant reductions in fuel burn in comparison to current technology aircraft. Non-planar lifting system configurations, such as wings with large winglets, upswept wing tips, bi-planes and strut braced configurations have been proposed as promising from ...

Gas explosion generated drag loads in offshore installations

Journal of Loss Prevention in the Process Industries, 1998
There is little guidance in place for secondary blast effects for offshore installations. In this paper, the origin of drag loading due to blast is explained, including the different nature of loading that could be expected for a range of explosion scenarios. The drag forces on pipe work, pipe supports grated decks and equipment are discussed.

Unsteady drag on a sphere by shock wave loading

Shock Waves, 2005
The dynamic drag coefficient of a sphere by shock wave loading is investigated numerically and experimentally. The diameter of the sphere is varied from 8 \({\mathrm{\mu}}\)m to 80 mm in numerical simulation. The axisymmetric Navier-Stokes equations are solved on a fine grid, and the grid convergence of the drag coefficient is achieved.

Coastdown Tests: Determining Road Loads Versus Drag Component Evaluation

SAE Technical Paper Series, 1990
<div class="htmlview paragraph">Coastdown tests as presently evaluated for establishing dynamometer settings for road load simulation are satisfactory but cannot be utilized directly for extracting accurate information on aerodynamic vehicle drag.
