Making Value‐Chain Risks Visible: Extending ENCORE for Systemic Insights

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Businesses in all sectors, including downstream segments, depend on biodiversity and the ecosystem services it sustains, yet firms also exert pressures that accelerate biodiversity loss. The latter generates material risks for both companies and their financial stakeholders.

Occurrence of severe slugging in oil production lines and mitigation methods: A numerical simulation approach using ALFAsim®

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract Severe slugging represents a major challenge in offshore production systems, potentially compromising operational stability and the integrity of installations. Although established simulators such as OLGA® are widely used for its analysis, there is a gap in the literature regarding the application of the one‐dimensional simulator ALFAsim® for ...

Analytical solutions for dynamic response in poroelastic seabed under second-order Stokes waves

Yantu gongcheng xuebao
Based on the theory of the second-order Stokes waves, the dynamic response of a poroelastic seabed induced by nonlinear ocean waves is investigated. The governing equations for the seabed are established in Cartesian coordinates using the Biot's general ...

Research progress and current status of dynamic wave propagation characteristics in rock mass: A review

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This review elucidates the velocity–dispersion–attenuation coupling mechanisms of wave propagation in rock masses, compares six representative models, and reveals how pressure, temperature, mineral composition, and anisotropy jointly control dynamic responses in complex geological media.

Numerical investigation of non-cohesive seabed response around a mono-pile by crossing wave-current

Water Science and Engineering, 2022
The interaction between waves and currents in the ocean often complicates the flow field around structures. In this study, a three-dimensional integrated numerical model was established to investigate the seabed response and liquefaction around a mono ...

Dynamic Response of Seabed Around Suction Anchor

PROCEEDINGS OF CIVIL ENGINEERING IN THE OCEAN, 1994
The frequency response of seabed around a suction anchor subjected to a mooring force of floating structure is numerically evaluated by taking the seabed characteristics into consideration. The seabed is assumed to be a fluid-saturated poroelastic medium whose behavior is governed by Biot's theory of wave propagation, and the suction anchor is modeled ...

Ocean Governance and Marine Conservation: Institutional Work as a Lever for Ocean Sustainability

Environmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ocean governance presents one of the most complex environmental policy challenges of our time, requiring coordinated action across multiple scales, sectors and stakeholder groups. This paper applies institutional work theory to systematically examine how actors create, maintain and disrupt the governance arrangements underpinning ocean ...
