OC6 Phase I: Investigating the underprediction of low-frequency hydrodynamic loads and responses of a floating wind turbine
(Institute of Physics (IOP), 2020-09)
Article
Open AccessPhase I of the OC6 project is focused on examining why offshore wind design tools underpredict the response (loads/motion) of the OC5-DeepCwind semisubmersible at its surge and pitch natural frequencies. Previous investigations ... -
Analysis of structural second order effects on a floating concrete platform for FOWT's
(Elsevier, 2016-09)
Article
Open AccessThe irruption of the floating wind energy in the offshore engineering is changing the paradigm of the structural analysis for those new structures, which are significantly smaller and more slender than those previously ... -
Tensile strength and slip model for steel reinforcement anchorages and lap splices
(Elsevier, 2024-08)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyA unified analytical model to compute the slip response and maximum tensile stress capacity of both steel bar anchorages and lap splices is presented. The model assumes idealized bond stress distributions along the anchorage ... -
Efficient beam-based model for reinforced concrete walls considering shear-flexure interaction
(Elsevier, 2024-09)
Article
Open AccessThis paper presents an efficient beam-based modelling scheme for the seismic analysis of reinforced concrete structural walls. The model combines a force-based beam element with a fibre section for flexural response and a ... -
Experimental modelling of a novel concrete-based 15-MW spar wind turbine
(Elsevier, 2024-10)
Article
Open AccessPhysical model testing is a crucial step in the validation process of floating offshore wind concepts that can be used to contribute to the worldwide decarbonization objectives. It is also important to understand the coupled ... -
Mechanical loads caused by handling during in-house transport with main focus on Munch’s porous paintings
(2022-12)
Article
Open AccessLoose paint, which occurs in Munch’s paintings after exhibitions caused by mechanical loads during transport, handling and storing in deposit or exhibitions, is a recurring challenge and a major concern. An essential feature ... -
Simplified analytical approach for calculating the transverse load distribution of precast slab bridges with and without concrete overlays
(American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), 2024-07)
Article
Open AccessPrecast slab bridges are an attractive option for short- to medium-span bridges; however, the presence of longitudinal joints and concrete overlays adds great complexity to the transverse load distribution (TLD) analysis. ... -
Experimental analysis of the compressive behaviour of perforated brick masonry using digital image correlation
(2024-06)
Article
Open AccessThe paper presents an experimental program on the characterisation of the mechanical behaviour of perforated brick masonry (PBM) under uniaxial compression. The study is aimed to provide a better understanding on the ... -
OC6 project Phase IV: validation of numerical models for novel floating offshore wind support structures
(Copernicus Office, 2024-04)
Article
Open AccessThis paper provides a summary of the work done within Phase IV of the Offshore Code Comparison Collaboration, Continued with Correlation and unCertainty (OC6) project, under International Energy Agency Wind Technology ... -
Exploring the utilization of activated volcanic ash as a substitute for portland cement in mortar formulation: a thorough experimental investigation
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2024-03)
Article
Open AccessThe manufacture of natural pozzolans as cement products is economically affordable and contributes to CO2 mitigation in the cement-based materials industry. Through two experimental stages, this study evaluates the feasibility ... -
Effectiveness of project-based learning in a reinforced concrete course of civil engineering
(OmniaScience, 2024-02)
Article
Open AccessThe application of Project-Based Learning (PBL) in a Reinforced Concrete course through the development of a real-life civil engineering project from its conception, as a coursework, is a challenged experience for students. ... -
Damage detection in a fiber reinforced polymers based tower of a floating offshore wind and tidal power platform using structural dynamic parameters
(2022)
Article
Open AccessThe development of offshore renewable energy structures is growing at a fast pace, and their maintenance will become critical in further years. Because steel corrosion on offshore structures is one of their highest maintenance ...
