Earthquake Spectra, Volume 40, Issue 1, Page 143-173, February 2024.This study develops a method for estimating site amplification that combines instrumentally observed site‐specific amplification factors with adjustment factors from nonlinear site‐response analyses. This approach provides estimates of site response for large‐strain motions based on observations and sophisticated nonlinear modeling.

Coupled modelling of a non-linear wave energy converter and hydraulic PTO
, 2018 The mechanical motion of a wave energy converter (WEC) is converted by the power take-off (PTO) system into electricity, but these two systems are not independent, as they have been treated in WEC modelling. Treating them as such leads to inaccuracies in

International Journal of Energy Research, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.This study aimed to improve the design of an automatically controlled sail wind power station (SWPS). The peculiarity of the considered SWPS design is that its working body (WB) is rigidly connected to the upper platform of a Sholkor parallel manipulator that has six degrees of freedom.
