... on the re-tensile plastic region size is proposed. The validity of the proposed model is investigated by comparing the crack propagation behavior under random loadings calculated by the proposed model with that calculated by FLARP. As results, the followings are found: Wheeler's and Huang's models cannot...

Amoco have recorded wave profile data at platforms in the Southern and Central North Sea, amounting to a total data period of approximately eight years. The locations are Leman, 38 metres depth, and Lomond and North Everest...
