Dobrochinski, João P.H. (author), van Deyzen, Alex (author), Zijlema, Marcel (author), van der Hout, A.J. (author)Accurate modelling of waves in harbours and the response of moored ships to that type of forcing is of prime importance to determine the safety and workability of ships moored at berths exposed to local wave conditions. This study investigates the combination of a non-hydrostatic wave-flow model (SWASH) and a 3D boundary-integral diffraction...journal article 2023

Rijnsdorp, D.P. (author), Wolgamot, Hugh (author), Zijlema, Marcel (author)Predictions of the wave-induced response of floating structures that are moored in a harbour or coastal waters require an accurate description of the (nonlinear) evolution of waves over variable bottom topography, the interactions of the waves with the structure, and the dynamics of the mooring system. In this paper, we present a new advanced...journal article 2022

Walker, J.M. (author), Coraddu, A. (author), Collu, Maurizio (author), Oneto, Luca (author)The number of installed floating offshore wind turbines (FOWTs) has doubled since 2017, quadrupling the total installed capacity, and is expected to increase significantly over the next decade. Consequently, there is a growing consideration towards the main challenges for FOWT projects: monitoring the system’s integrity, extending the...journal article 2021

el Mansouri, B. (author), van Driel, W.D. (author), Zhang, Kouchi (author)Nowadays many applications require optical detection of some sorts, ranging from civil to military fields. Depending on the optical source, each sensing element needs to have distinct properties with the spectral range at the top. Choices such as sensitivity and environment play an equally important role, if not more important. The properties of...book chapter 2020

Middelburg, L.M. (author), van Driel, W.D. (author), Zhang, Kouchi (author)In the coming decade, the development in the area of More than Moore will certainly take over from Moore’s Law. Sensor development and sensor integration will prevail above lower node development. New packaging solutions will be developed which will fuel the integration of sensors. These developments can still be silicon based but where harsh...book chapter 2020

Peters, O.A.J. (author)Dry transporting large heavy floating structures has been an important development in the innovative history of Heavy Marine Transport. This is done by carrying these type of cargoes on the deck of Heavy Transport Vessels. Loading and discharge is preformed by submerging the transport vessel, and positioning the cargo above the deck using tugger...doctoral thesis 2019

Wang, X. (author), Dubbeldam, J.L.A. (author), Van Mieghem, P.F.A. (author)Kemeny's constant and its relation to the effective graph resistance has been established for regular graphs by Palacios et al. [1]. Based on the Moore–Penrose pseudo-inverse of the Laplacian matrix, we derive a new closed-form formula and deduce upper and lower bounds for the Kemeny constant. Furthermore, we generalize the relation between...journal article 2017

Rijnsdorp, D.P. (author), Zijlema, Marcel (author)This paper presents a numerical model to simulate the evolution of waves and their interactions with a restrained ship that is moored in coastal waters. The model aims to be applicable at the scale of a harbour or coastal region, while accounting for the key physical processes that determine the hydrodynamic loads on the ship. Its methodology...journal article 2016

(H.Ligteringen@tudelft.nl) (author), Mühlenstein, D (dm@dhi.dk) (author), Howle, M. (Mike.Howle@cavotec.com) (author)Container ships should only make very small horizontal movements at the berth for efficient (off loading of containers. This is especially a concern in ports directly facing the open ocean, where high swells at sea can cause harbour oscillations and low-frequency surge motions of the ship. Cavotec MSL has developed a new mooring unit, the...conference paper 2010

(brogueira.dias@apdl.pt) (author)The Port of Leixões is located in the northwest coast of Portugal. Its oil terminal has one berth that is somewhat exposed to rough environmental conditions and has some operational problems. In order to improve operational and security conditions at that berth (Berth A), the Port Authority has commissioned several studies along the years that...conference paper 2010

Vrijburcht, A. (author)Fender structures and dolphins form an important part of the navigable canal. They have many functions: they must be able to guide and slow down ships, they must protect structures aft of ships against impacts from ships, and must protect ships from these structures. In addition, they must act as berthing or waiting places for ships. Fender...report 1991

Fontijn, H.L. (author)In this report a mathematical model is formulated which is sufficiently accurate to describe the typical behaviour of a ship berthing to a vertical quay-wall fitted with fenders as well as to determine the response of the fenders themselves. In order to achieve this a three-dimensional set of governing equations is drawn up by which the lateral...report 1983

Hales, L.Z. (author)A multitude of conceptual models of floating breakwaters have been proposed without extensive or complete evaluation of most of these concepts. The technical literature regarding floating breakwater applicability and design procedures is fragmentary and sometimes confusing. Clear, concise guidance does not always exist for those responsible for...report 1981
