Investigation on Effects of Mooring Line Fractures and Connector Failures for A Hybrid Modular Floating Structure System

China Ocean Engineering, 2022
AbstractThe present work reports a Hybrid Modular Floating Structure (HMFS) system with typical malfunction conditions. The effects of both fractured mooring lines and failed connectors on main hydrodynamic responses (mooring line tensions, module motions, connector loads and wave power production) of the HMFS system under typical sea conditions are ...

The 2025 Kamchatka Earthquake and Tsunami: Cascading Impacts and Risks to Japan

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT On July 29th, 2025, a large earthquake (Mw 8.8) occurred near the Kamchatka Peninsula. This event caused a tsunami that reached Japan's Pacific coast, even though the source was far away. In this study, we analyze the characteristics of earthquakes and tsunamis and discuss how they relate to the recurrence possibility and risk in Japan.

Mooring Failure Analysis of Semisubmersible Floating Offshore Wind Turbines Considering Mooring Redundancy at Each Azimuth Angle

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
Semisubmersible floating structures are becoming the predominant understructure type for floating offshore wind turbines (FOWTs) worldwide. As FOWTs are erected far away from land and in deep seas, they inevitably suffer violent and complicated sea ...

Deglaciation of the Burren glacio‐karst, western Ireland, during Termination 1: Implications for North Atlantic climate and karstification

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract The Burren uplands in western Ireland form one of the most extensive and best‐preserved examples of glacio‐karst in Europe. Subsumed by the Irish ice sheet during the Late Pleistocene, granite erratic boulders and in situ silica veins in the limestone bedrock provide a rare opportunity to reconstruct the timing and rate of deglaciation ...
