The stochastic wave load environment of offshore structures is of such a complicated nature that any engineering analysis requires extensive simplifications.
These differences may arise from the extensive simplifications made by Sun et al. such as neglecting the effect of osmotic coefficient and ions activities to get convergence.
The AP1000™ is a two-loopPressurized Water Reactor (PWR) with passive safety features and extensive plant simplifications that enhance its construction, operation, maintenance and safety.
Even among Eukarya, various instances of extensive evolutionary simplifications are known (see the flatworms, already mentioned, or the relative rarity of introns in eukaryotes with a prokaryotic life style, such as yeast).
The CIPM's draft proposal, which was an extensive revision and simplification of the metric unit definitions, symbols and terminology based on the MKS system of units, was put to the 10th CGPM in 1954.
The new edition features extensive rewriting, streamlining, and simplification of the chapters on mixed strategies, uncertainty and information, prisoners' dilemmas, and collective action.
Available software tools fail to streamline the modelling and analysis of this complexity, leading to extensive iterations or rough simplifications.
The former typically introduces excessive simplification in the decision space and subjectivity, the latter leads to extensive numerical effort and postpones the compromise decision-making.
Therefore, it is plausible to avoid costly and extensive numerical modeling (which also would bear many assumptions, simplifications and uncertainties).
Various authors proposed simplifications which obviate the need for the extensive computations.
This study involved extensive CFD efforts with more than 3000 CFD simulations minimizing the use of simplifications.
