Abstract: Peridynamic theory is the reformulation of classical mechanics mathematical theory compatible with cracks while performing structural analysis. The present study models the tubular joints having T, Y, K, and X configurations ...

Abstract: This paper focuses on load mitigation by implementing controllable trailing-edge slotted flaps on the blades of an offshore wind turbine (OWT). The benchmark NREL 5 MW horizontal axis OWT is subjected to coupled stochastic ...

Abstract: Surface gravity wave interaction with a novel composite pile–rock breakwater having a stack of porous plates fixed on its top is investigated in the present study. A numerical code based on the dual boundary element method ...
