Forecasting long term jack up vessel demand for offshore wind [PDF]
, 2013 Offshore wind deployment has greatly increased in the last decade. The number and size of installations have historically determined the requirement for jack up vessels, as installation was the only driver for heavy lift vessel requirement.

Frequency-domain modeling of floating wind arrays with shared mooring lines [PDF]
Wind Energy ScienceA frequency-domain model for floating wind turbine dynamics has been extended to model floating wind farms with couplings from shared mooring systems. The model, called RAFT, could previously calculate the mean offsets and wave-induced response spectra ...

Assessment of Spray Drift with Various Adjuvants in a Wind Tunnel
Agronomy, 2022 When pesticides are sprayed, a significant portion of the droplets drifts away from the target. Using an adjuvant in spray liquid is an easy option for reducing droplet drift because there is no need to make any changes to the sprayer.

Impact of Selected Methods of Cogging Torque Reduction in Multipolar Permanent-Magnet Machines
Energies, 2020 This paper focuses on the matter of cogging torque reduction by combining various methods of cogging torque minimization. Due to the high costs of prototype construction, cogging torque is minimized during the design phase by using numerical methods ...

IMF-induced escape of molecular ions from the Martian ionosphere [PDF]
Annales Geophysicae, 2013 Since Mars does not possess a significant global intrinsic magnetic field, the solar wind interacts directly with the Martian ionosphere and can induce ion escapes from it.
