Book Description

Vol. I: Introduction - consists of preparatory investigations and literature survey. Vol. II: Calculating ice forces - deals with ice mechanics. Vol. III: Hydrodynamical aspects: calculating wave forces on monocone structures - deals with the hydrodynamical aspects of a monocone structure, the wave forces on the structure are calculated by means of an approximating diffraction compution. Vol. IV: A cone shaped concrete structure - deals with the design and detailing of a concrete monocone structure for the southern Beaufort Sea in a water depth of 60m.

Book Description

ISO 19906 is one of a series of international standards for offshore structures. The full series is numbered ISO 19900 through ISO 19906. Standard ISO 19906 specifies requirements and provides recommendations and guidance for the design, construction, transportation, installation, and removal of offshore structures related to activities of the petroleum and natural gas industries in the arctic and in cold regions that experience similar sea ice, iceberg, and icing conditions.

Book Description

This book summarizes results of longstanding research and scientific contributions from many projects and relevant working groups. It collects and evaluates wind and wave climate projections under changing climate having design needs and marine safety in focus. Potential impact of projected climate change in met-ocean conditions on ships and offshore structures is discussed and illustrated by an example of the expected wave climate change on tanker design. The monograph is intended for students, researchers and industry based engineers who want a summary of the many studies that have been carried out on climate change effects on wind and waves and their importance for design and operations of ship and offshore structures. The reader needs only a moderate knowledge of marine wind and wave climate to follow the text.

Book Description

There is an increasing need to construct engineering structures in the Arctic sea. The requirement is principally generated by the oil and gas industry, because of the substantial reserves that are known to existing offshore in the Beaufort Sea, the Caspian Sea, the Barents Sea, the Pacific Ocean off the cost of Sakhalin, the Canadian Arctic, and almost certainly elsewhere. Structures have to withstand the severe environmental forces generated by sea ice, a subject that is developing rapidly but is still far from completely understood. Underwater pipelines have to be safe against ice gouging and strudel scour, but also have to be constructed safely and economically. The social and human environment has to be understood and respected. This important book intentionally takes a broad view, and vividly accounts for the many and often subtle interactions between the different factors. It is illustrated by case studies of actual projects.

Book Description

Course materials for an Arctic Offshore Engineering Short Course emphasizing the development of an engineering knowledge of wave and ice mechanics leading to the state of the art in determining arctic offshore environmental forcing functions. The forcing functions are used in designing and predicting the integrity of arctic offshore structures. Forces are applied to the design of a monopod (vertical cylinder), a submarine pipeline (horizontal cylinder) and a conical structure (large body).

Book Description

Marine Structural Design, Second Edition, is a wide-ranging, practical guide to marine structural analysis and design, describing in detail the application of modern structural engineering principles to marine and offshore structures. Organized in five parts, the book covers basic structural design principles, strength, fatigue and fracture, and reliability and risk assessment, providing all the knowledge needed for limit-state design and re-assessment of existing structures. Updates to this edition include new chapters on structural health monitoring and risk-based decision-making, arctic marine structural development, and the addition of new LNG ship topics, including composite materials and structures, uncertainty analysis, and green ship concepts. Provides the structural design principles, background theory, and know-how needed for marine and offshore structural design by analysis Covers strength, fatigue and fracture, reliability, and risk assessment together in one resource, emphasizing practical considerations and applications Updates to this edition include new chapters on structural health monitoring and risk-based decision making, and new content on arctic marine structural design
