Structural behaviour of fully coupled spar–mooring system under extreme wave loading

Journal of Civil Engineering and Management, 2014
Floating spar platform has been proven to be an economical and efficient type of offshore oil and gas exploration structure in deep and ultra-deep seas. Associated nonlinearities, coupled action, damping effect and extreme sea environments may modify its

Features of Dynamism Wharf-Cable-Dynamic-Positioning Vessel Rigid-Flexible Coupling Multi-Body System Analysis

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023
The conventional mooring positioning technique is cost-effective; however, it shows poor maneuverability and positioning precision. In this study, to calculate the mooring tension, mooring cables were discretized into lumped mass models using the lumped ...

Strategic Implications of Mandatory ESG Assurance and Its Impact on Competitive Advantage: Evidence From European Market Reactions

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The EU has recently introduced, for the first time, a market‐wide mandatory assurance requirement for sustainability reporting under the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD). The directive mandates that affected firms obtain independent third‐party assurance for their ESG reports. This study examines the equity market's reaction

Digital Twin of the Mooring Line Tension for Floating Offshore Wind Turbines

OCEANS 2021: San Diego – Porto, 2021
The number of installed Floating Offshore Wind Turbines (FOWTs) has doubled since 2017, quadrupling the total installed capacity, and is expected to increase significantly over the next decade. Consequently, there is a growing consideration towards the main challenges for FOWT projects: monitoring the system's integrity, extending the lifespan of the ...
