Abstract: The dynamic responses of a TLP (Tension Leg Platform) in regular and irregular waves were investigated by model tests and calculations in both frequency and time domain. Hydrodynamic forces in ...

Abstract: The effects of the thickness, lubricant, and temper of metals on pure stretchability of aluminum sheets have been studied. The pure stretchability of the sheet metals was markedly deteriorated ...

Abstract: The influences of the frictional coefficient at the tool-work interface and of the metal properties, such as n-value or r-value, on the stretchability of sheet metals have been examined both ...

Abstract: Two operating advanced power plants, a supercritical steam plant and a gas-steam turbine combined cycle, have been analyzed using a methodology of graphical exergy analysis (EUDs). The comparison ...
