The mooring system is a vital component of various floating
facilities in the oil, gas, and renewables industries. However,
there is a lack of comprehensive technical books dedicated to the
subject. Mooring System Engineering for Offshore Structures is the
first book delivering in-depth knowledge on all aspects of mooring
systems, from design and analysis to installation, operation,
maintenance and integrity management. The book gives beginners a
solid look at the fundamentals involved during mooring designs with
coverage on current standards and codes, mooring analysis and
theories behind the analysis techniques. Advanced engineers can
stay up-to-date through operation, integrity management, and
practical examples provided. This book is recommended for students
majoring in naval architecture, marine or ocean engineering, and
allied disciplines in civil or mechanical engineering. Engineers
and researchers in the offshore industry will benefit from the
knowledge presented to understand the various types of mooring
systems, their design, analysis, and operations.
This book analyzes China's climate and environmental change facts,
impacts and vulnerabilities, and mitigation strategies. On basis of
synthesis assessment, through comprehensive integration, it focuses
on four aspects: climate change and ecological environment
evolution, future climate change and risk prediction, technical
measures and action results for adaptation and mitigation, and
development path with climate resilience. In terms of change facts,
it focuses on extreme climate events, large-scale factors affecting
China's climate change, and the impact of climate change on China's
social and economic system. In terms of future risks, it focuses on
key variables such as temperature, precipitation and other key
variables and the prediction of future changes in extreme climate
events. Potential risks in resources, agriculture, cryosphere,
ecology, human settlements, health and major projects are also
discussed. In terms of adaptation and mitigation, this book
systematically sorts out and summarizes the effects, policy choices
and synergies of climate change adaptation and mitigation from two
perspectives, global and Chinese. Finally, from the perspectives of
carbon emission path, sustainable development, and building a
community with a shared future for mankind, it explains the
essentials of choosing a development path with climate
resilience.Â
This book could be divided into two parts i.e. fundamental wavelet
transform theory and method and some important applications of
wavelet transform. In the first part, as preliminary knowledge, the
Fourier analysis, inner product space, the characteristics of Haar
functions, and concepts of multi-resolution analysis, are
introduced followed by a description on how to construct wavelet
functions both multi-band and multi wavelets, and finally
introduces the design of integer wavelets via lifting schemes and
its application to discrete transform integer algorithms. In the
second part, many applications are discussed in the field of image
and signal processing by introducing other wavelet variants such as
complex wavelets, ridgelets, and curvelets. Important application
examples include image compression, image denosing/restoration,
image image enhancement, transient feature detection, numerical
solution of partial differential equations, and solving
ill-conditioned Toeplitz system. The book is intended for senior
undergraduate students and graduate students.
