Exploitation of marine environments

The sustainable exploitation and use of marine environments can make a significant contribution to solving the prevailing challenges in the field of energy conversion/generation and food supply. With a focus on hydrodynamic processes, this working group deals with the following topics, among others:

 

 

  • Marine renewable energy 
    • Wave energy conversion
    • (Floating) Offshore-Wind
    • Floating solar power
    • Tidal energy
  • Dynamics and loads of floating structures
    • Wave-structure interaction
    • Wave-current interaction
    • Wave-structure-soil interaction
    • Wave kinematics
    • Seabed liquefaction
    • Influence of marine growth on loads on offshore-wind systems
  • Scour and scour protection around marine structures
  • Erosion and deposition processes around marine structures
  • Dynmics of aquaculture systems
  • Analysis of mooring systems
