Flash butt welding corrosion of mooring chains

Corrosion Engineering, Science and Technology, 2022
Flash butt welding is a resistance welding process that offers great advantages due to its high thermal efficiency, simplicity and high speed, makes it ideal for welding mooring chains. Despite its advantages, numerous corrosion problems are still being found in practice, both in the heat-affected zone and the weld line.

On chain conditions in moore spaces

General Topology and its Applications, 1974
AbstractA space Y has the countable chain condition (CCC) (discrete countable chain condition (DCCC)) provided each (discrete) collection of mutually exclusive open sets in Y is countable. In [16], the author showed the DCCC, the CCC and separability to be equivalent conditions in completable Moore spaces.

Design and comparative analysis of mooring systems for a combined wind and wave energy system at intermediate water depth

Journal of Ocean Engineering and Science
For intermediate water depths (typically ranging from 50 m to 80 m), designing steel catenary mooring systems for floating marine renewable energy (FMRE) platforms can be challenging due to the limited weight of suspended mooring lines.

Do Eco‐Emotions and Climate Change Perceptions Influence Environmentally Conscious Decisions? Implications for Business Strategies

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Despite growing research on explicating travelers' decision‐making processes regarding greener travel options, there remains potential for exploring nuances of different factors and mechanisms that may encourage higher green travel. Grounded in the propositions of the push–pull–mooring framework, our study attempts to explicate whether eco ...
