...K. A. Abhinav, PhD; Nilanjan Saha, PhD This paper describes the stochastic dynamic response of National Renewable Energy Laboratory 5 MW offshore fixed-based wind turbine (OWT) under various soil conditions – medium dense sand, stiff clay and layered profiles in 20 m depth of water. The aerodynamic...

...Jasmine E. Low, MEng, PhD; Fleur A. Loveridge, BA, MSc, PhD, CEng, CGeol, MICE, FGS; William Powrie, FREng, MA, PhD, CEng, FICE Soil thermal conductivity is an important factor in the design of energy foundations and other ground heat exchanger systems. Laboratory tests in a thermal cell are often...

...Ru J. Hon, BEng; Chung Y. Kwok, PhD, PE; Tse H. L. Lee, MSc, CEng, MIMMM, MICE, MHKIE, FGS Over the past two decades, research on embodied energy has been associated with construction projects in an effort to tackle sustainability issues. In this study, the embodied energy of two types of tunnels...

...Phil Hemmingway, BE, PhD, MIEI; Mike Long, MEngSc, PhD, CEng, MIEI, MICE Despite an increasing worldwide use of geothermal energy foundations, there is a lack of published guidelines and results from thermal response testing of such installations. In this paper the results are presented from...
