The purpose of this thesis is to investigate the loadings on and motion of an offshore wind turbine. The three major components of an offshore wind turbine are the wind turbine, the platform and the mooring lines. The effects of these components on the motion of the wind turbine…

Floating wind turbines have to operate under the influence of hydrodynamic and aerodynamic forces which are usually coupled in nature. Due to complicated interactions of wave and wind forces on its structure, predicting motion and performance of a floating wind turbine usually d…
Basin and Petroleum System Modeling (BPSM) is coupled-physics approach that tracks over the course of basin history, the evolution of basin geometry, compaction, pressure, fluid flow, temperature, and chemical transformation of organic matter to quantitatively predict petroleum …
This thesis presents results of centrifuge model tests and three-dimensional large deformation finite element (LDFE) analysis on axial pipe-soil sliding behaviour of partially embedded subsea pipelines. 3D re-meshing and interpolation technique with small strain (RITSS) approach…
