Time-critical design methods for suction caisson foundations
This thesis is centred around the development of a family of computationally efficient design methods called ‘oxCaisson’, that can predict the behaviour of suction caisson foundations under six degrees-of-freedom loading. These design methods were developed for applications where timeliness or speed is a crucial factor; hence the term ‘time-critical ...

ABSTRACT This study presents an experimental investigation into the influence of anchor–soil interaction on the dynamic behaviour of tension leg platform (TLP)–type floating wind turbines. A 1/100 scale model of the NREL 5‐MW reference wind turbine was fabricated using a 3D printer, with scaling parameters determined based on Froude scaling laws to ...

Field trials of suction caissons in sand for offshore wind turbine foundations
A programme of testing on suction caisson foundations in an artificially prepared sand test bed near Luce Bay, in Scotland, is described. The tests are relevant to the design of either monopod or quadruped foundations for offshore wind turbines. Records are presented for suction installation of the caissons, cyclic moment loading under both quasi ...

Application of Magnetic Resonance Imaging in Postoperative Cognitive Dysfunction: A Narrative Review
While POCD diagnosis currently relies on subjective assessments and lacks objectivity, MRI provides an objective means to visualize related brain changes (structural MRI being the current routine standard). Advancing to multiple MRI modalities holds promise for enabling early detection and intervention.

Plasticity of maize (Zea mays L.) roots in water‐deficient and nitrogen‐limited soil
Abstract Maize (Zea mays L.), a versatile global crop with diverse application in food, feed, and industry, experiences production challenges due to water deficits and concurrent nitrogen (N) limitations. Maize relies on multiple root types, including primary, seminal, crown, brace roots, and associated lateral roots, to acquire water and nutrients ...
