.... The aero-servo-hydro-elastic tool OpenFAST developed by NREL is employed for the present study. The study further investigates the variation in wind power generation, wave load developing on the platform and the variation in the fairlead tension for the SPAR FOWT. For the considered wind-wave conditions...

... mathematical physics problems. INTRODUCTION Wave loads calculation is the essential work in offshore platform design, and only a few geometry shapes can be solved analytically, such as vertical or horizontal round cylinders. With the help of conformal mapping technology, the ship's cross-section can...

... based on Navier-Stokes equations is established for the investigation into a ten-pile cap structure. The wave loads are obtained by integrating pressure over the surface of each part of the structure. The effects of the interaction between the piles and the cap are investigated. In some cases...

... Hydrodynamics (SPH) method. Vertical force and overturning moment exerted on a submerged plate are obtained by the numerical model, and compared with the experimental data. Effects of a sloping beach to wave load are discussed by comparing with results on a flat bottom. More details of pressure distributions...

... of various wave properties to gain an insight into the monopile behaviour. The purpose of this study is to make recommendations for improving the design of offshore monopile foundations, when wave load is a dominant factor. KEY WORDS: Offshore monopile foundations; ocean waves; structural behaviour; scaled...

... gives smaller load than Morison s formula. KEY WORDS: Numerical wave tank; wave load; current load; circular cylinder; OWT; Morison s formula. INTRODUCTION Wind turbine foundations installed at offshore sites are subject to ocean waves and current directly. Recently the structural integrity of Ocean...

St·udy has been conducted on the hydrodynamic forces acting on H.P. bodies to test the appro- priateness of these engineering aspects. Wave load...

... with equivalent stiffness and strength, respectively. First, reliability assessment of the structure under the quasi-static extreme wave loads is performed by using the reliability analysis program package developed for spatial frameworks based on ultimate strength analysis. Next, the effect of uncertainty...

... ABSTRACT: In this paper a method is presented for reliability assessment of aged jacket structures considering increase of extreme wave loads due to marine growth and corrosion and deterioration of rigidity and resistance due to corrosion. Structures are modelled as spatial frames subjected...
