Dynamic Inversion Model of the Mooring Force on a Floating Bollard of a Sea Lock
Sea locks that connect inland canals and rivers to the open sea are crucial links that ensure the efficient navigation of ships. Floating bollards (FBs) are significant components of sea locks, and they are affected by factors such as large ships, speed ...

Hydrodynamic performance of floating photobioreactors driven by wave energy
Background Unlike conventional cultivation systems, liquid mixing in floating photobioreactors (PBRs) is solely induced by their hydrodynamic movement in response to waves, and this movement is affected by the wave conditions (wave height and wave period)
