Large waves cause a great number of collapsed-ship accidents, resulting in the loss of many lives and properties. It has been found that most of these collapses are caused by encountering oblique waves. As a result, the ship structure experiences a compl...

High-voltage transmission towers consist of structures that are designed to avoid the risk of electric shock and prevent the risk of collapse. Hence, for efficiency, they are generally designed as high-rise towers. The main tower posts are the primary st...
