A set of waves of appropriate amplitude and phase are generated from our 12 paddle wave maker so they coalesce as a short sequence of extreme amplitude waves at a precise location in the tank. In this case one of our MSc in Maritime Engineering Science had built a 1:91 scale model of a spar buoy style floating platform to measure the motion response with a realistic mooring arrangement. Motions were captured above and below the water using our 12 camera Qualisys system including the mooring line response. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We were delighted to see one of our MSc Maritime Engineering Science student\u00a0John Hayes present his impressive project on the response of a moored floating offshore wind turbine at the final of this year Maritime Masters competition.
