Understanding exam access arrangements in practice: Challenges and opportunities
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
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)

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

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