讲座摘要：As global demand for sustainable food and marine biomass intensifies, offshore aquaculture has become an increasingly vital contributor to food security and environmental resilience. This keynote paper focuses on two Blue Economy Cooperative Research Centre’s offshore aquaculture projects: the SeaFisher - a submersible offshore fish pen and the SubsCI - a submersible seaweed cultivation infrastructure that can perform depth cycling in deep offshore waters.The conceptual design, modeling, structural and hydroelastic analyses, and t testing of these two offshore aquaculture systems will be presented.

讲座摘要：Floating offshore wind energy is poised to be the next frontier in marine renewable energy, unlocking the immense potential of marine resources. It is essential to accurately predict the responses of floating wind turbines. Potential flow calculations seem to deviate from experimental studies, particularly under severe sea states where viscosity plays a significant role.Focusing on a semi-submersible type of floating wind turbine, a series of experiments in a wave basin have been re-analysed using novel data analysis techniques.Interesting and new phenomena are observed and will be introduced in this presentation. Viscosity is found to affect both the response amplitude (via damping) and the natural frequency (via extra added mass) - way beyond the damping effect in a damped spring system.
