In this paper, fully coupled time-domain analysis of three different semisubmersible floating
offshore wind turbines (semi-FOWTs) is performed. The focus of the present paper is to …

Currently, there is a rapid demand for the development of floating offshore wind turbines
(FOWTs) for deployment in sites with deep water depths. FOWTs are highly complex …

This paper describes an experimental study conducted on a multi-column tension leg
platform (TLP) floating offshore wind turbine (FOWT). A prototype model of the TLP FOWT …

This paper deals with a modified anisotropic stress-state-dependent plastic-damage
continuum model incorporating combined hardening and softening rules to predict the …

The hot tensile and fracture behavior, as well as damage mechanisms of Ti6Al4V alloy are
investigated by the hot tension tests and microstructure observation experiments. For …

The fracture properties of a high-strength steel with a body-centered cubic (bcc) crystal
structure have been characterized at–196° C by performing tensile tests with different …

In engineering practice, it is critical to accurately forecast the fracture initiation of ductile
metals. Currently, various uncoupled ductile fracture criteria (DFCs) have been constructed …

Failure in lightweight metal forming is a big challenge currently and prevents their widely
application in weight reduction of automobile and aerospace structures. A stress-based …

To understand comprehensively the relationship between material ductility and stress state,
the new shear, shear-compression, and shear-tension specimens were specially designed …

A multiscale finite element simulation approach based on the probabilistic mean-field
method is proposed to predict the strength and ductile fracture of the cast aluminum (Al) …
