The GB power system will see huge growth in transmission connected wind farms over the next decade, driven by European clean energy targets. The majority of the UK’s wind development is likely to be offshore and many of these wind farms will be interfaced to the grid through pow…

A study is made of the dynamic response of wave-excited structures. The inertia and drag components of the wave excitation are first examined separately to identify the dominant factors involved in their definition and in their contributions to the structural response. The actio…

The static and dynamic analysis of thin plates and shells, empty or fluid-filled, has been the focus of many researches. Most of these theories were originally developed for linear analysis of the plates or the closed shells, empty or fluid-filled, based on the first approximati…
