Investigation of Dynamic Behavior of Ultra-Large Cold-Water Pipes for Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion by Yanfang Zhang, Miaozi Zheng, Li Zhang, Chaofei Zhang, Jian Tan, Yulong Zhang, Menglan Duan

“…We verify the correctness and validity of our model by comparing it with the finite element simulation results using OrcaFlex software. We also analyze the effects of operating conditions—such as wave intensity, clump weight at the bottom, and internal flow velocity—on the dynamic response of the CWP using numerical simulation and the orthogonal experimental method. …”

A new diminutive fossil ziphiid from the deep-sea floor off northern Chile and some remarks on the body size evolution and palaeobiogeography of the beaked whales by Giovanni Bianucci, Walter Sielfeld, Nicole A. Olguin, Guillermo Guzmán

“…Such recent shift of the ziphiids towards a larger size could be the result of a progressive change of diet from fish to cephalopods, to the competition with the delphinids, and the predatory impact of the white shark Carcharodon carcharias and/or of the killer whale Orcinus orca. This new Chilean ziphiid further supports the hypothesis that crown beaked whales originated and firstly dispersed in the oceanic waters of the Southern Hemisphere. …”
