Physical Modelling of Offshore Wind Turbine Foundations for TRL (Technology Readiness Level) Studies
Offshore wind turbines are a complex, dynamically sensitive structure due to their irregular mass and stiffness distribution, and complexity of the loading conditions they need to withstand.

Experimental evaluation of the pull-out behavior of suction caissons in saturated sand soil
This paper presents an experimental and analytical investigation of the extraction behavior of suction caissons in saturated sand. The extraction of suction caissons was performed at four different pullout rates (i.e., 1 mm/s, 3 mm/s, 8 mm/s, and 23 mm/s)

What's new? While the association between tobacco consumption and oral cancer is well established, the effect of cessation, particularly of chewing tobacco, the most common tobacco product in South Asia, is understudied. This case–control study in an Indian population demonstrates that a longer duration of tobacco smoking and chewing cessation is ...

Performance of suction caissons with a small aspect ratio [PDF]
textSuction caissons with a smaller aspect (length to diameter) ratio are increasingly used for supporting offshore structures, such as wind turbines and oil and gas production facilities.

If tidal electricity generation and storage replaced natural gas and battery storage by 2050, it could reduce the climate change impact of UK grid electricity by 71%, saving up to 4.4 Mt CO2 eq./y. Most other environmental impacts would be reduced by up to 24%. However, high costs and low public acceptability hinder its deployment. ABSTRACT Tidal range

Geopower, Geos and the Colonisation of Palestine
ABSTRACT While the majority of geographical work on colonialism in Palestine centres on territory and land, this article foregrounds geopower and geos in the making of spatial relations. Three arguments are made over three corresponding sections. The first draws on recent writing on geopower and geos (primarily that by Elizabeth Grosz, Elizabeth ...

ABSTRACT Background Caesarean scar ectopic pregnancy (CSEP) is defined by the implantation and development of a gestational sac inside a caesarean scar defect, but variations in classification systems and diagnostic criteria exist. Objectives This study aimed to systematically review the different criteria used in the medical literature to diagnose ...

Comparison of experimental and model‐predicted erosion rates for carbon fibre‐reinforced polymer (CFRP) and glass fibre‐reinforced polymer (GFRP) under low‐velocity (2 m/s) and at varying angles and sand concentrations (0.0, 0.05, 0.4 g/L). The results demonstrate good agreement between experimental data and model predictions across different erosive ...
