Research Fellow at the National Decommissioning Centre Dr Alicia Terrero Gonzalez recently shared her work “Dynamics of a nonlinear shallow-draft floating offshore wind turbines and its towing operations” at the prestigious International Symposium on Dynamic Problems of Mechanics (DINAME 2025). The DINAME conference is organized biennially by the Committee of Dynamics of ABCM, the Brazilian Society of Mechanical Sciences and Engineering. Alicia was invited to present her industry-academia collaborative research at the 2025 conference, which took place in Águas de Lindoia, São Paulo, Brazil, in March.

Since 1986, DINAME has attracted the active participation of scientists, academics, graduate students, and engineers from Brazil and various other countries to share, discuss, and present the recent developments and state-of-the-art techniques related to dynamic problems. Alicia’s attendance at the conference was sponsored by The National Decommissioning Centre (NDC) and SEN Hub, which actively promotes research on energy transition, interdisciplinary collaboration, and industry-academia partnerships to drive the Net Zero transition. The hub is part of the Supergen Programme, which is funded by UK Research and Innovation (UKRI). The SEN Hub aims to advance the transition to a low-carbon, sustainable energy system by focusing on innovations in Net Zero whole systems, large scale energy networks and regional distribution systems.

Reflecting on her experience Dr Terrero Gonzalez said: “It was great to once again attend this high-profile conference to develop meaningful connections, explore areas for collaborative opportunity and to hear the latest research in this field. I am grateful for the funding I received from the SEN Hub and would encourage others to apply if they get the opportunity”.
