Time-domain hydrodynamic analysis of pontoon-plate floating breakwater

open access: yesWater Science and Engineering, 2012
The hydrodynamic behaviors of a floating breakwater consisting of a rectangular pontoon and horizontal plates are studied theoretically. The fluid motion is idealized as two-dimensional linear potential flow.

Hydrodynamic Coefficients of Heave Plates, With Application to Wave Energy Conversion [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Journal of Oceanic Engineering, 2018
Wave energy converters (WECs) often employ submerged heave plates to provide reaction forces at depths below the level of wave motion. Here, two sets of heave plate experiments are described, at varying scale. First, the Oscillator uses a linear actuator to force laboratory scale (30.5-cm diameter) heave plates in sinusoidal motion. Second, the miniWEC

Multi‐objective maritime vessel routing with safety considerations

open access: yesInternational Transactions in Operational Research, Volume 34, Issue 1, Page 337-371, January 2027.
Abstract The routing of maritime vessels is a challenging optimization problem that involves finding an adequate balance between conflicting and multiple objectives. This paper proposes a methodology based on inverse optimization to find appropriate objective weights that account for conflicting objectives. To formulate the inverse optimization problem,

Response of an Infant With Presumed Multiple Acyl‐CoA Dehydrogenase Deficiency (MADD) to Ketone Supplementation

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, Volume 200, Issue 9, Page 2140-2150, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Multiple Acyl‐CoA Dehydrogenase Deficiency (MADD) is an autosomal recessive inborn error of metabolism caused by biallelic pathogenic variants in one of three known genes: ETFA, ETFB, and ETFDH. It can cause multisystem dysfunction, including cardiomyopathy in severe cases.

Floating Platform Geometry as a Frequency‐Selective Mechanism for Triboelectric Wave Energy Harvesting

open access: yesSmartSys, Volume 2, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Ocean wave energy has enormous potential for sustainable power generation but conventional technologies often face challenges in efficiency, durability, and adaptability to specific sites. Triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs) are able to convert irregular and low frequency water motion into electrical energy, but their performance depends on ...

Spacing effects on hydrodynamics of heave plates on offshore structures

open access: yesJournal of Fluids and Structures, 2007
The nonlinear viscous flow problem associated with a heaving vertical cylinder with two heave plates in the form of two circular disks attached is solved using a finite difference method. Numerical experiments are carried out to investigate the spanwise length effects on the hydrodynamic properties, such as added mass and damping coefficients.
