Journal of Polymer Science, EarlyView.Hydrolytic aging in seawater produces markedly different mechanical responses among commercial Aramid fibers. While some fibers exhibit progressive degradation, others maintain stable or even improved tensile behavior. Experimental yarn‐scale testing combined with mathematical degradation modeling and Arrhenius‐based lifetime prediction provides new ...

Aerodynamic Behavior of a Floating Offshore Wind Turbine [PDF]
AIAA Journal, 2019 The flowfield around the rotor blades of a wind turbine may be quite complex due to the occurrence of several aerodynamic phenomena. It is all the more true for floating offshore wind turbines (FOWT), for which the six rigid-body motions of the floating platform can induce blade/wake interactions.

Quality and Reliability Engineering International, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Corrosion remains a critical threat to the integrity and service life of infrastructure in industries such as oil, gas, construction, renewable energy, and transportation. Traditional inspection methods, being labor‐intensive, hazardous, and often subjective, fall short in addressing modern inspection demands.

Key Issues on the Design of an Offshore Wind Farm Layout and Its Equivalent Model
Applied Sciences, 2019 Offshore wind farms will have larger capacities in the future than they do today. Thus, the costs that are associated with the installation of wind turbines and the connection of power grids will be much higher, thus the location of wind turbines and the
