Grid-Based Set Point Generation Strategy for Position Control of Dynamic Positioning Assisted Mooring System [PDF]
Unlike typical a dynamic positioning (DP) system, a DP-assisted mooring system must determine a set point (SP) that can ensure a mooring tension safety range to prevent an excessive increase in mooring tension.

In this study, a newly enhanced Fluid-Structure Interaction (FSI) model which incorporates mooring lines was used to simulate a floating structure. The model has two parts: a Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) model and a mooring model.

Objective Cerebral ischemic stroke causes neuronal oxygen/energy deprivation, disrupting mitochondrial function including reduced membrane potential and bioenergetics, exacerbating neuronal injury. Mitochondrial defects are, therefore, a central neuropathological node and potential therapeutic target.

A novel mooring tether for highly dynamic offshore applications; mitigating peak and fatigue loads via selectable axial stiffness (conference paper) [PDF]
PublishedHighly dynamic floating bodies such as wave energy convertors (WECs) require mooring lines with particular mechanical properties; the mooring system must achieve adequate station keeping whilst controlling mooring tensions within acceptable ...

Efficient preliminary floating offshore wind turbine design and testing methodologies and application to a concrete spar design [PDF]
The current key challenge in the floating offshore wind turbine industry and research is on designing economic floating systems that can compete with fixed-bottom offshore turbines in terms of levelized cost of energy. The preliminary platform design, as

Moored offshore structures - evaluation of forces in elastic mooring lines
In most situations, the high frequency motions of the floating structure induce important effects in the mooring lines which affect also the motions of the structure. The experience accumulated during systematic experimental tests and calculations, carried out for different moored floating structures, showed a complex influence of various parameters on
