Focus Group Workshop 1
Thursday 14th July 2016
10:30 am
City University London
Description and Aim
The first CCP-WSI Focus Group Workshop will provide a forum for Wave-Structure-Interaction (WSI) discussions that are relevant to a broad range of offshore and coastal applications. The Workshop will bring together CCP-WSI project partners with representatives from the wider WSI Community to develop a priority list of WSI challenges and inform future targeted focus group meetings. The ultimate goal is to develop a roadmap for CCP-WSI activities and inform future UK research funding calls to maintain the nation’s world-leading status in offshore and coastal engineering.
Objectives
- Develop WSI Computation and Experiment Roadmap
- Identify WSI challenges in the context of: coastal and ocean engineering; offshore oil and gas structures; wave and tidal energy structures; offshore wind structures.
- Identify themes for CCP-WSI Workshop Series Design
- Form consortia for Research Project Proposal Development
Report
A report detailing the outcomes of the workshop is available here.
