The diesel engine on a ship is crucial as it serves as the primary power source, significantly influencing both the vessel’s efficiency and safety. Monitoring metal wear particles found in lubricating oil is essential for assessing the lubrication condition of mechanical equipment onboard and anticipating potential failures. Analyzing these metal wear particles allows us to gauge the wear status of bearing pairs within the mac...

The use of pile-supported breakwaters can be a cost-effective solution for wave energy dissipation when traditional rubble mound breakwaters are not suitable. For a cost-effective design of these barriers, it is essential to obtain accurate estimates of dynamic pressures and wave forces. Laboratory experiments were conducted to investigate the dynamic pressures and forces on a novel pile-supported breakwater with inclined perf...
