(Texas A&M University, 1994)The development of an airborne current measurement system that can provide a near-synoptic view of near-bottom currents in extremely hostile wave and current environments is described. A helicopter is used as the support ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2002)During tendon towing the pipe is floating in a horizontal plane parallel to the sea-surface unlike the usual vertical slender members like risers, mooring lines, etc where the pipe/cable is perpendicular to the sea-surface. ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 1994)This research study focused on the development and application of a laboratory instrument utilizing real-time video in conjunction with image processing techniques to accurately measure 3-dimensional wave surface kinematics. ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2000)Three-column TLP is a new design variation of the common four-column TLP. The objective of this study is to find the hydrodynamic feasibility of the three-column TLP. This accomplished by comparing the three-column design ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 1998)simulating the transient flow The present method solves the incompressible flow, Reynolds-Averaged Navier-stokes equations, related to free surface flow, taking into account both viscous and non-linear wave effects. Both ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 1997)The objective of this study is to assess the relative performance of a second generation (2G) model, WISWAVE (Hubertz 1992), and a third generation (3G) model, WAM (WAMDI 1988), in deep water. High-quality wind fields, ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2001)This study is focussed on investigating the applicability of the 2nd-order wave theory to different sea-states. The study was conducted by analyzing the experimental wave data and comparing the data with the 2nd-order wave ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 1995)The predicted responses of an offshore structure when the wave induced kinematics are computed from different estimation methods can change significantly. The sometimes controversial results have recently motivated the ...

(Texas A&M University, 1997)The need for accurate cost estimates is well recognized in the dredging industry. In order for a dredging contractor to efficiently execute a project from its conception to its completion, an accurate estimate of the final ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2000)Estimating the cost of a dredging project is the most important part of a project's life cycle. A precise account of the costs associated with performing dredging work begins with the production estimate and ends with the ...

(Texas A&M University, 1993)Extended well testing has emerged from the need for accurate, reliable predictions of well performance. Recent events in the Gulf of Mexico have demonstrated this need. The analysis of a moored tanker and semi-submersible ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 1998)A Semisubmersible-type bucket ladder dredge is a possible candidate to satisfy the need of PT Timah (Indonesia tin mining company) to exploit tin deposits in water depths of 50 m and deeper. The existing vessel used by ...
