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.

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.
