Vessel Motion Based Assessment of Pipeline Integrity During Installation

If weather conditions become rough, vessel motions with an increased amplitude are excited due to the presence of waves. The sagbend region of a suspended pipeline catenary may experience high loads due to these motions. When the loads become too high, the pipeline integrity cannot be guaranteed. In such case, the pipeline is lowered to the...

The dynamic influence of wave-in-deck forcing on a structure and the role of material non-linearity

Offshore assets experience wave forcings on a daily basis. Whilst the assets are designed with an airgap to protect the deck from these impacts, environments are prone to change, leaving the airgap to be insufficient. <br/><br/>Wave-in-deck (WID) is the phenomenon of waves hitting the deck despite of the airgap. The forcing exerted on the deck...
