Other projectsWithin our site we felt you might find it useful to have links to other projects we have discovered that have not had links elsewhere. You will find others under seacrete and VLFS, that we have not duplicated here. The objective in giving you these links is to allow you to look at the technology they are proposing where it is specified. Nexus floating city for 50,000 http://www.tdrinc.com/nexus.html Insufficient detail to help very much. Floating Caissons http://cem.www.ecn.purdue.edu/CEM/Sim/Examples/caissons.htm This is a live service that produces floating extensions to ports and other similar structures building units that go together. The page shows the building process in great detail, where parts are built in a floating dock and units go together to create large floating areas. The page is a summery and comment upon the prefabrication operation, and includes a great deal of detail including dimensions. Ocean colonization http://www.telesterion.com/ocean.htm an article with a number of illustrations, written in 1993, more a beginners thoughts on the topic than of great help, and finishes mid sentence. The advantages of such an operation are clouded by a somewhat negative view, principally from the view of an individual amassing a fortune, and creating it single handed against a lot of opposition. Floating cities list archive 285 messages on the topic index at http://reality.sculptors.com/~hyprmail/floating-cities/author.html there may be links we have missed amongst the chatter. Allocate a lot of time if you decide to look around. You can sort the messages by various keys, try putting them in date order it makes the conversations flow. You will find the number of correspondence is small and most of the larger projects we have mentioned is not mentioned, neither is our project. Ocean Power Delivery Ltd another method of harvesting wave power. http://www.oceanpd.com/
