RISNew Methodology for the Determination of the Vertical Center of Gravity of In-service Semisubmersibles: Experimental Assessment
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Recently, the authors have proposed a new methodology for the vertical position of the center of gravity (KG) estimation of semisubmersibles at its production location. The procedure, called the Zero GM method, is based ...
New Methodology for the Determination of the Vertical Center of Gravity of In-Service Semisubmersibles: Proposal and Numerical Assessment
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Along its lifetime, an offshore unit is subjected to several equipment interventions. These modifications may include large conversions in loco that usually are not adequately documented. Hence, the accurate determination ...
Experimental Assessment of the Performance of CECO Wave Energy Converter in Irregular Waves
Publisher: American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The performance assessment of a wave energy converter (WEC) is a key task. Depending on the layout of the WEC system and type of power take-off (PTO) mechanism, the determination of the absorbed power at model scale involves ...
