When subjected to seismic activity, tall isolated buildings with a high aspect ratio are susceptible to overturning as a result of the failure of rubber isolation bearings under tension. In order to address this issue, a guided-rail tension device (GR) h...

As a key component connecting a floating wind turbine with static sea cables, dynamic cables undergo significant tensile and bending loads caused by hydrostatic pressure, self-weight, waves, and ocean currents during service, which can lead to fatigue fa...

Fibre ropes offer beneficial properties for mooring of floating offshore wind turbines (FOWTs). However, the mooring line?s stiffness is both load-history and load-rate dependent. A quasi-static stiffness is observed for slow loading, with a higher stiff...
