Mooring systems are a critical component of all floating wave energy converter (WEC) systems, yet the impact of amooring system on the WEC dynamics is often neglected during the initial assessment of candidate designs. The purpose of this study was to in...

An efficient graphical acoustic computing (GRACO) method is introduced. Referring to the rendering of semi-transparent objects, the depth peeling (DP) technique is compounded with the GRACO method, forming a combined GRACO and DP method (GRACO?DP) to con...

The longitudinal dynamic response of a large-diameter-bored pile is investigated considering the bottom sediment and the radial unloading of the surrounding soil. First, the sediment between the pile tip and the bedrock is treated as a fictitious soil pi...

The weak layer has good attenuation performance when it comes to the explosive stress wave, which can be used in protective structures. In this paper, a cement mortar specimen was designed, cast, and tested. Under inner explosion, due to the expansion of...

In earthquake engineering, acceleration has played a major role, while wave energy has rarely been considered as a demand in design. In order to understand earthquake damage mechanism in terms of energy, the demand in terms of wave energy in surface soil...

A vibration absorber consisting of a one-dimensional waveguide with a reflectionless termination extracts vibrational energy from a structure that is to be damped. An optimum energy dissipation occurs for the so-called power adjustment, i.e, the same lev...

Based on the Navier?Stokes equation for compressible media, this work studies the acoustic properties of a human cochlear model, in which the scala vestibuli and scala tympani are filled with compressible perilymph. Since the sound waves propagate as a c...

Since the end of the last glaciation, the United Kingdom?s land surface has been altered by isostatic rebound, rising in the north and sinking in the south. Numerous studies have been published documenting the impact of isostatic rebound on relative sea ...
