Observation of Peek Melting Peaks within the Additive Manufacturing Material Extrusion Process in Relation to Isothermal and Non‐Isothermal Processes
(Wiley, 23 November 2023)The current study investigates the melting behavior of polyetheretherketone (PEEK) using both Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) and Fast Scanning Calorimetry (FSC) thermal analysis techniques. The PEEK melting peaks ... -
Floating offshore wind turbine – Heavy construction requirements (chapter)
(CRC Press, 2 November 2022)Floating offshore wind farms are becoming an option, for marine renewable energy production. They are anchored to the seabed, in water depths greater than those used by fixed bottom offshore turbines, where winds are ... -
LIDAR-Assisted Feedforward Pitch Control of 15 MW Floating Offshore Wind Turbines
(American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 22 September 2023)Nacelle-mounted, forward-facing Light Detection and Ranging (LIDAR) technology is able to measure the wind field as it approaches a wind turbine. Knowledge of the incoming wind can be used for feedforward turbine control, ... -
Stochastic Vortex-Induced Vibration in Free-Stream Turbulence Using a Phenomenological Model
(American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 22 September 2023)Underwater dynamic power cables connected to offshore floating energy devices are subject to ocean flow turbulence and, through eddy shedding, may experience vortex-induced vibration (VIV). A high level of turbulence ... -
Evaluation of Model Predictions of the Unsteady Tidal Stream Resource and Turbine Fatigue Loads Relative to Multi-Point Flow Measurements at Raz Blanchard
(MDPI, 12 October 2023)The next stage of development of the tidal stream industry will see a focus on the deployment of tidal turbines in arrays of increasing device numbers and rated power. Successful array development requires a thorough ...
