Marine habitats are being targeted for the extraction of offshore renewable energy (ORE) as part of the drive to decarbonise electricity generation. Unmanaged biofouling impacts ORE devices and infrastructure by elevating drag forces, increasing weight, ...

Maritime enterprises have long sought solutions to reduce the negative consequences of the settlement and growth of marine biofouling (micro- and macro-organisms) on virtually all surfaces and materials deployed at sea. The development of biofouling cont...

In this paper, a cleaning robot is designed to remove the marine fouling attached to a marine steel pile. In the following study, in order to analyse the process of cleaning marine fouling attached to a rough substrate, the barnacle is taken as a typical...

Oil-infused ?slippery? polymer surfaces and engineered surface textures have been separately shown to reduce settlement or adhesion strength of marine biofouling organisms. Here, we combine these two approaches in fluorogel surfaces infused with perfluor...
