Feasibility Study of using a LiDAR in the complex flowfield of an offshore platform, to measure wind shear profile. [PDF]
Offshore wind is the major growth area in the wind industry sector today. However, there remains a key, fundamental missing element - a thorough understanding of the offshore wind climatology and likely wind resource.

Analyses on docking dynamic characteristics of the jack-up platform with two-piece units guide cable
To meet the requirements of deeper offshore oil and gas exploration, a two-piece units mode jack-up rig is employed to upgrade the existing cylindrical leg jack-up rig which works in shallow areas of 50 m deep.

A comparison of jack-up spudcan penetration predictions and recorded field data
Installing jack-up spudcan foundations in layered seabed is still challenging in the offshore industry. Before operation, the stability of the jack-up has to be proven by geotechnical analyses. The prediction of leg penetration and possible soil failure (

High Strength Steel Fatigue Crack Growth Database for Offshore Renewable Energy Applications
ABSTRACT High strength steels can reduce costs and carbon emissions in offshore renewable energy, but their effect on structural integrity remains unclear. In welded structures, such as support structures for offshore wind and tidal turbines, fatigue life is dominated by crack growth from flaws at weld toes.

While many visual predators feed exclusively during the day, others exploit foraging opportunities at night, although the efficiency with which they do so is strongly influenced by ambient light levels. We investigated the influence of variation in nocturnal light on the foraging behaviour of a small pelagic seabird, the European Storm‐petrel ...
