In recent years, multi-bucket foundations have been studied and gradually adopted in engineering practices as a novel foundation for offshore wind turbines within a range of water depth of 30 to 50 m. This study investigated the motion characteristics of...

Insects are good examples of ground locomotion because they can adapt their gait pattern to propel them in any direction, over uneven terrain, in a stable manner. Nevertheless, replicating such locomotion skills to a legged robot is not a straightforward...

The foundations of offshore wind power can be classified as floating, tripod, jacket, monopile, or gravity-based, depending on the support type. In the case of tripod- and jacket-type supports, the structures require precise construction. There are two m...

Based on a series of physical model tests and numerical simulations, the bearing characteristics of a tripod-bucket foundation are investigated. It is found that with the decrease in aspect ratio (L/D), the rotation center of the foundation will decrease...

Bucket foundations, especially multi-bucket foundations, have become an alternative for large offshore wind turbines. Vertical responses of a single bucket are critical for the serviceability design of tripod or tetrapod bucket foundations. Centrifuge te...

The study aimed to assess the quality of spraying of ornamental conifer using a multi-rotor drone. We examined how the speed of drone movement and the propellers? spin speed can affect the deposition quality of the sprayed liquid in the crown of blue spr...

In this study, the local scour around tripods in random waves is numerically investigated. The seabed-tripod-fluid numerical model with an RNG k-e turbulence model is built and validated. Following that, the scour characteristics and flow velocity distri...

Comparative hydrodynamic loads caused by a focused wave acting on differently sized slender vertical cylinders placed in a wave canal were predicted at model scale using an unsteady Reynolds-averaged Navier?Stokes (URANS) solver and the Morison equation....

Evapotranspiration (ET) is a critical component of the hydrological cycle, and it links water and energy budgets in the form of latent heat (LvE) released into the atmosphere. However, ET is difficult to measure and is not always well described in arid r...
