Newswise — In the field of civil engineering, empty cylindrical steel tanks are highly susceptible to wind-induced buckling. Conventional stiffeners (ring, vertical) have limitations: ring stiffeners ...

Ice–structure interaction dynamics encompass the mechanical processes by which sea ice contacts, deforms against and ultimately fails around offshore installations such as platforms, wind-turbine ...

An international research team led by the Helmholtz-Zentrum Hereon has, for the first time, succeeded in visualizing and quantifying the complex airflow dynamics directly above the ocean surface in ...
