First, the paper introduces the toroidal propeller concept and modeling method before analyzing the impact of grid size on numerical simulations. The correspondence between numerical results and experimental data is then established to validate the computational model's accuracy. Following this, the study explores the hydrodynamic performance of the toroidal propeller, including pressure distribution on the blade surface and the flow field dynamics in the propeller's wake across varying advance coefficients. Subsequently, it examines the influence of geometric parameters such as axis span ratios, lateral angles, roll angles, and vertical angles, on the hydrodynamic performance, elucidating their effects on the pressure distribution profiles at radial sections, thrust coefficient, and open water efficiency. The findings provide substantial guidance for the geometric parameter selection in the optimal design of future toroidal propellers.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":19403,"journal":{"name":"Ocean Engineering","volume":"314 ","pages":"Article 119704"},"PeriodicalIF":4.6,"publicationDate":"2024-11-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142586596","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Current design codes often overlook swells, leading to underestimations of environmental loads and structural responses, especially for flexible structures, potentially causing resonance and instability. Wind-generated waves and swells have distinct generation mechanisms, but their characteristics, such as significant wave height and average period, show a statistical correlation due to their interaction. Thus, a mixed stochastic wave model is needed to reflect both wave types and their correlation accurately. This study investigates the correlation of wave characteristics and the power density spectrum (PSD) between wind-generated waves and swells using measured data, providing a comprehensive understanding of mixed wave interactions. The joint probability density model of wave characteristics is discussed via Vine Copula theory. A framework for obtaining mixed wave loads is developed using the Proper Orthogonal Decomposition (POD) method, treating waves as a 1 dimension - 2 variables (1D-2V) stochastic vector process. The model is applied to assess the dynamic response of a 5 MW mono-pile offshore wind turbine (OWT). Results show that swells significantly increase the internal force and bending moment demands, highlighting the necessity of including swells in offshore structure design and analysis.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":19403,"journal":{"name":"Ocean Engineering","volume":"314 ","pages":"Article 119671"},"PeriodicalIF":4.6,"publicationDate":"2024-11-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142586595","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The results show that effective coupling between corrosion and fatigue can be achieved by gradually reducing the load frequency as the stress intensity factor amplitude increases throughout the crack growth process. It is consistent with the trend of fatigue crack growth rate in the seawater environment.

Our method provides a principled means to utilise a probabilistic representation of weather forecasts derived from ensemble forecasting for the purpose of route planning and allows for a user-defined threshold of risk tolerance. Another key advantage of our method is its ability to dynamically choose candidate route waypoints using weather-dependent estimates of fuel and safety information.

In response, the overall turbine number decreases due to economics-constraints, leading to an overall reduction in overall array energy yield. Thus, array profit decreases with increments in break even power.

Survey data of the pipeline profile and seabed bathymetry are adopted along with the pipe-soil interaction (PSI) inputs from the original design allowing a like-for-like comparison of the two approaches to management of lateral buckling. The comparison shows that, for the assumptions made in the numerical modelling, use of a pre-deformed pipeline results in lower strain than using ZRBs. Furthermore, the performance of the pre-deformed pipeline is robust, and shown to be unaffected by uncertainties in horizontal out-of-straightness, PSI input and seabed features. This study shows that pre-deformed pipelines can be an effective alternative for controlling the lateral buckling of subsea pipelines, which eliminates the need for buckle initiation structures to be installed along the pipeline route.
