Abstract Background Movement to spawn in offshore waters provides numerous benefits to inshore marine fish and crustacean species, but there is often limited empirical data on the behaviour and ecology of this key aspect...

Offshore wind farms (OWFs) are becoming a key component of Poland’s energy security. Due to location and nature, they are vulnerable to hybrid threats. The author of the article discussed OWFs as a new component of cri...

Process safety management (PSM) systems in offshore petroleum operations require systematic prioritization owing to complex technologies, harsh conditions, and resource constraints. This study develops an integrated fram...

Currently, subsea mining is primarily limited to sea sand extraction and deep-sea mining that focus mainly on mining activities at the seabed surface. These conventional methods not only pose significant environmental ri...

INTRODUCTION: With the rapid growth of offshore wind power integration and increasing wind power penetration, accurate power forecasting has become essential for maintaining grid stability and supporting economic dispatc...

Abstract In order to address health monitoring issues on offshore wind turbines, while taking into account engineering know-how and constraints, we propose a robust model identification procedure based on reliability of ...

This paper presents a two-way coupling methodology between the robust Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH)-based fluid solver DualSPHysics and the lumped-mass mooring dynamics solver MoorDynPlus. Such integration enable...

Abstract Seafloor networks detect earthquakes and tsunamis more quickly than those on the mainland in the subduction zones. N-net was constructed in the western portion of the Nankai Trough subduction zone to fill the ga...

Based on maintenance data from over 1000 onshore and offshore wind turbines covering more than 4200 operating years, this study presents an analysis of failure rates, repair times, and maintenance resource requirements, ...

Designing floating wind turbine systems requires integrated load assessments (ILA) using fully coupled hydro-servo-aero-elastic models. In most cases, floater hydrodynamics are represented using potential-flow models for...

Abstract The reservoirs in the western South China Sea oilfield are characterized by low permeability, poor pore connectivity, high laminated content, severe pollution, and prominent interlayer contradictions. For this r...

Since 2020, offshore wind turbine prototypes have experienced a substantial increase in size. At the same time, wind turbine design standards have not specified requirements for marine atmospheric turbulence. The impact ...

This paper presents a comprehensive review of Medium Voltage (MV) Wind Energy Conversion Systems (WECS) with the integration of Wide-bandgap (WBG) semiconductor devices. With the growing demand for high-power offshore wi...

Deep beams are an important element in infrastructure and offshore structures. This paper investigates the shear capacity of glass fiber reinforced polymer GFRP reinforced high-strength fibrous concrete deep beam. (12) s...

Population growth debates often posit that depopulation would reduce ecological strains. We explore that premise through the case of Japan, where population decline coincides with rising affluence, dietary change, and gr...

Abstract Large-diameter monopiles are extensively used to support onshore bridges, port terminals, and offshore wind farms due to their high load-bearing capacity, low settlement and excellent seismic performance. Meanwh...

The regulation of ocean observation in the context of the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS) and the evolving regime related to the Biodiversity Beyond National Jurisdiction (BBNJ) draws attention t...

Morskie farmy wiatrowe (offshore wind farms, OWFs) stają się kluczowym elementem bezpieczeństwa energetycznego Polski. Z uwagi na lokalizację i charakter są one podatne na zagrożenia hybrydowe. Autorka artykułu om...

This benchmark case study introduces recently developed state-of-the-art general purpose multi-modal nonstationary reliability assessment method for marine, offshore, and naval structures, suitable for physically measure...

Floating offshore wind turbines (FOWTs) raise concerns among coastal communities due to their potential impacts on marine biodiversity and fisheries. This issue is particularly striking in France, where the government is...

Coral reef systems on the southeastern Cuban shelf are exposed to rapid warming and increasingly frequent marine heatwaves (MHWs). However, the physical drivers of local sea-surface temperature (SST) variability remain...
