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 ...

Environmental Statecraft, Fragmented Authoritarianism, and Technocratic Governance: The Structure and Agency of China's Local Environmental Politics

Environmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Local environmental politics in China is often said to be dominated by state‐controlled modes of multi‐level governance. However, top‐down governance is embedded within and transformed by local politics, adding complexity to governance practices and environmental outcomes.

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 ...
