Understanding exam access arrangements in practice: Challenges and opportunities

open access: yesBritish Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Secondary students with specific learning difficulties (SpLD) often face challenges with academic tasks, particularly with high‐stakes examinations. Exam access arrangements (EAA) are provided as reasonable adjustments to reduce disadvantage for students with SpLD.

Effects of shared lines with different materials on mooring response of the floating wind farm

open access: yesZhongguo Jianchuan Yanjiu
ObjectivesThis paper investigates the impact of shared lines with different materials on the dynamic response of floating wind farms in order to design a rational shared mooring system. MethodsFirst, shared mooring and traditional (without shared cables)

A Study on the Effectiveness of the Heading Control on the Mooring Line Tension and Position Offset for an Arctic Floating Structure under Complex Environmental Loads

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021
Even though interest in developing the Arctic region is increasing continuously, the standard procedure to be used to analyze the station-keeping performance of a floater considering ice loads has not been established yet.

Frequency-domain modeling of floating wind arrays with shared mooring lines [PDF]

open access: yesWind Energy Science
A frequency-domain model for floating wind turbine dynamics has been extended to model floating wind farms with couplings from shared mooring systems. The model, called RAFT, could previously calculate the mean offsets and wave-induced response spectra ...

Development of an acoustic sensor to monitor synthetic mooring lines

open access: yesApplied Ocean Research
Fiber ropes (polyester, nylon, HMPE, etc.) are being considered for Floating Offshore Wind Turbines mooring lines, as they can reduce mooring weight and cost.

Investigation on motion responses of a semi-submersible platform and its mooring system [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
More and more floating structures are used in both offshore and coastal engineering, and also under assessment for wind energy. Mooring systems are needed by floating structures for station-keeping.

Statical analysis of mooring lines considering sea bed condition and design charts of mooring lines

open access: yesJournal of the Society of Naval Architects of Japan, 1982
Multi-mooring system is one of the popular means to position a floating offshore structure on the ocean. On doing basic design of it, we have to make static and dynamic analyses of mooring lines, but of the two the static one is more basic.Till now there were no useful method to make statical analysis considering sea bed condition, and so we were in ...

Effects of water depth, mooring line diameter and hydrodynamic coefficients on the behaviour of deepwater FPSOs

open access: yesAin Shams Engineering Journal, 2020
Floating Production Storage and Offloading (FPSO) platforms are the most used floating structures in the offshore oil and gas industry. They are generally kept in place with the aid of mooring lines anchored to the seabed.

Experimental studies on seakeeping and maneuverability of ships in adverse weather conditions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The introduction of the energy efficiency design index (EEDI), which is applicable for various types of new-built ships after January 1,2013, raised concerns regarding the sufficiency of propulsion power and steering devices to maintain maneuverability ...
