Abstract: Typhoon is a disastrous weather system, which usually induces strong waves, currents, and surges along the coastal area, and causes severe hydrodynamic loads on the elevated pile cap foundation, which is widely used to ...

Abstract: The stochastic waves generated by storm landfalls usually determine the design and safety of coastal and offshore structures in typhoon regions. This study developed a parametric wave spectrum model for typhoon-generated ...

Abstract: Ocean current forecasting is essential for tidal renewable energy generation and operation. However, forecasting the current direction at multiple points along the water depth are still lacking of comprehensive studies. ...

Abstract: Ocean current forecast is vital for developing tidal energy and construction of offshore structures in the strait waters. This paper developed a shortterm ocean current forecasting approach, which consists of the measured ...

Abstract: Current studies on tailoring the coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) of materials focused on either exploring the composition of the bulk material or the design of composites which strongly depend on a few negative CTE ...

Abstract: The square concrete deck is being used as an elevated transition piece in offshore structure but has a large exposure area to extreme waves. This study focused on the horizontal wave-in-deck loads on the square concrete ...

Abstract: Total talar replacement (TTR) with an additively manufactured personalized total talar prosthesis (TTP) is an emerging treatment for ankle disorders. However, how to enhance the ankle stability after TTR, which usually ...
