Offshore energy structures : for wind power, wave energy and hybrid marine platforms / by Madjid Karimirad. Cham : Springer, c.2014. xi, 301 p. : ill. ; 24 cm. Index : p. 299-301. Bibliography : p. 291-297. Introduction -- Wind turbines -- Fixed offshore wind turbines -- Floating offshore wind turbines -- Wave energy converters -- Combined wave and wind power devices -- Design aspects -- Wave and wind theories -- Aerodynamic and hydrodynamic loads -- Dynamic response analyses -- Stochastic analyses. This book provides all the key information needed to design offshore structures for renewable energy applications. Suitable for practicing engineers and students, the author conveys design principles and best practices in a clear, concise manner, eschewing complicated mathematical detail. The text connects underlying scientific theory with industry standards and practical implementation issues for offshore wind turbines, wave energy converters and current turbines. Combined concepts such as wave-wind energy platforms are discussed, as well. Coverage of design codes and numerical tools ensures the usefulness of this resource for all those studying and working in the rapidly expanding field of offshore renewable energy.     Ocean engineering.
