Investigation of heave response of the deepwater octagonal FDPSO using various heave plate configurations [PDF]
Journal of Marine Science and Application, 2017 Heave plates can be employed to control undesirable heave motion amplitudes of the deepwater octagonal Floating, Drilling, Production, Storage, and Offloading (FDPSO) platform. Numerical simulations and model tests were applied to analyze and investigate the hydrodynamic response and the feasibility of the heave plate configurations.

Experimental study on heave damping due to the heave plate addition on the SPAR keel
IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, 2021 Abstract Recent years have shown the increasing number of SPAR offshore floating platforms built and delivered worldwide. This eventually is strongly related to the generic potential of such platforms, in term of economy and performance aspects, especially for the operation in deep water.

An impedance approach to reduce the contact-instability whilst drilling with active heave compensation [PDF]
, 2012 The bit-bounce, or contact-instability, phenomenon which occurs in the drill string suspended from a floating vessel with an active drill string compensator to maintain a steady weight on the drill bit is investigated.

Secondary frost heave in freezing soils [PDF]
, 1996 Frost heave describes the phenomenon whereby soil freezing causes upwards surface motion due to the action of capillary suction imbibing water from the unfrozen region below. The expansion of water on freezing is a small part of the overall surface heave
