OFFSHORE SEABED PILE FOUNDATION ANALYSIS: SOIL-PILE INTERACTION AND LOAD CONDITIONS, AND DESIGN RECOMMENDATIONS

Rudarsko-geološko-naftni Zbornik
Offshore pile foundations are essential for supporting structures, such as wind turbines, oil platforms, and bridges. Important factors influencing soil-pile interactions and assessing the impact of various environmental loads, including axial, lateral ...

Electric Double Layer Engineering Induces O‐Down Interfacial Water Reorientation for Efficient and Long‐Term Seawater Electrolysis

Advanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
The additive EDTMPS inhibits hydroxides deposition by chelating with Ca2+/Mg2+. It also disrupts the hydrogen bond network of interfacial water and expands the thickness of electric double layer, promoting more free water to flip into adsorbable O‐down configuration.

Immigration detention centers as torturing environments: Ethical reckonings, radical refusals, and implications for a psychology of resistance

American Journal of Community Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper examines psychologists' ethical dilemmas in immigration detention centers. Using critical psychology, border, and detention scholarship, it highlights psychologists' historical complicity in state violence, from the U.S. Enhanced Interrogation Program to current border regimes.

‘Shelter is a Dignity’: Rental Racism, Stress and Housing (In)justice

Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Australia's private rental sector is in crisis, and culturally and racially minoritised renters face compounded harms through both covert and everyday direct forms of rental racism. Drawing on five community‐based focus groups in Melbourne (n = 37), the paper explores how racism manifests across the rental pathway and how it structures the ...

Description of large, well‐preserved Enchodus specimens from the Bearpaw Formation of Alberta, Canada

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Fishes of the genus Enchodus were abundant and cosmopolitan in the Late Cretaceous, but are primarily known from isolated remains in Canada. Four well‐preserved fish skulls were recovered in recent years from ammolite mines sampling the Bearpaw Formation of Southern Alberta, and are here referred to Enchodus petrosus Cope, 1874.

Fine-scale proximity to offshore wind turbine foundations increases biomass of demersal fish species

Frontiers in Marine Science
Offshore wind turbine fixed-bottom foundations provide artificial hard substrate through the water column that encourages marine flora and fauna to colonise and aggregate around the introduced structures, a well-documented phenomenon known as the ...

Multi-person selection of the best wind turbine based on the multi-criteria integrated additive-multiplicative utility function

Journal of Civil Engineering and Management, 2014
Energy generation and savings is a vital problem for the social and economic development of a modern world. The construction of wind farms is a challenge of crucial importance to Lithuania. Offshore wind farms are one of the possibilities of the multiple
