Applications of Peridynamics in Marine Structures

Marine environment is a harsh and challenging for both operators analysers due to extreme weather conditions. As result of these conditions, marine structures are subjected and/or cyclic loadings. This will then lead various different damage modes including corrosion fatigue. Such major threats the reliability integrity which can cause risk on human environmental safety, yield financial losses. Moreover, climate change concern requires urgent attention. In order minimize negative effects change, energy transition from utilisation fossil fuels greener solutions, such as offshore wind, should be adapted. There currently rapid progress investment green technologies especially wind generation. Another emerging area hydrogen considered environmentally friendly fuel future.
