Experimental characterisation of small-diameter ropes for representing synthetic moorings in tank testing
(Elsevier, 3 April 2025)Offshore renewable energy (ORE) developers are increasingly choosing synthetic ropes in their mooring designs. In hydrodynamic tank testing, the scaled elasticity of these ropes is typically represented by springs, which ... -
A Spatiotemporal Machine Learning Framework for the Prediction of Metocean Conditions in the Gulf of Mexico: Application to Loop Current and Loop Current Eddy Forecasting
(Society of Petroleum Engineers (SPE), 2025)We are entering an exciting new era of data-driven weather prediction, where forecast models trained on historical data (including observations and reanalyses) offer an alternative to directly solving the governing ... -
Optimizing Fatigue Life Predictions for Floating Offshore Wind Turbines: Impact of Binning and Data Duration
(American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 2025)Floating Offshore Wind Turbines (FOWTs) experience dynamic environmental loads over their lifetime, making accurate fatigue assessment crucial for structural reliability and optimised design. Binning methods simplify ... -
A Data-Driven Approach to Offshore Wind Forecasting in the Celtic Sea
(American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 2025)Accurate weather forecasts are critical for various industries - including offshore wind - which, has a significant part to play in realizing global net zero energy goals. Traditionally, such forecasts have been made using ... -
Identifying Opportunities for Uncrewed Vessel Technology in Offshore Wind Projects Using Automatic Identification System (AIS) Data
(American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 2025)Automatic Identification System (AIS) data holds significant potential for capturing and analysing activities at sea. For offshore wind developers and operators seeking lower emissions using uncrewed surface vessels (USVs) ...
