Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The subject of hydrodynamics applied to offshore structures is vast. The topics covered in this book aim to help the reader understand basic principles while at the same time giving the designer enough information for particular designs. Thus, results are given with derivations, and applications are discussed with the aid of examples, with an overview of the advantages and limitations of the method involved. This makes the book suitable as a text for undergraduate and graduate students specializing in offshore and ocean engineering.

Download or read book Bayesian Hierarchical Space Time Models with Application to Significant Wave Height written by Erik Vanem and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-10-11 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides an example of a thorough statistical treatment of ocean wave data in space and time. It demonstrates how the flexible framework of Bayesian hierarchical space-time models can be applied to oceanographic processes such as significant wave height in order to describe dependence structures and uncertainties in the data. This monograph is a research book and it is partly cross-disciplinary. The methodology itself is firmly rooted in the statistical research tradition, based on probability theory and stochastic processes. However, that methodology has been applied to a problem in the field of physical oceanography, analyzing data for significant wave height, which is of crucial importance to ocean engineering disciplines. Indeed, the statistical properties of significant wave height are important for the design, construction and operation of ships and other marine and coastal structures. Furthermore, the book addresses the question of whether climate change has an effect of the ocean wave climate, and if so what that effect might be. Thus, this book is an important contribution to the ongoing debate on climate change, its implications and how to adapt to a changing climate, with a particular focus on the maritime industries and the marine environment. This book should be of value to anyone with an interest in the statistical modelling of environmental processes, and in particular to those with an interest in the ocean wave climate. It is written on a level that should be understandable to everyone with a basic background in statistics or elementary mathematics, and an introduction to some basic concepts is provided in the appendices for the uninitiated reader. The intended readership includes students and professionals involved in statistics, oceanography, ocean engineering, environmental research, climate sciences and risk assessment. Moreover, the book’s findings are relevant for various stakeholders in the maritime industries such as design offices, classification societies, ship owners, yards and operators, flag states and intergovernmental agencies such as the IMO.

This book was released on 1979 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a follow-on project to SSC-240, 'Load Criteria for Ship Stuctural Design', which proposed methods for the estimation and superposition of the primary loads and performed sample calculations for one conventional dry cargo ship. It involved the following bending moments: still-water due to weight and buoyancy; ships own wave train; quasi-static wave-induced, vertical and lateral combined; dynamic loads, including slamming, whipping and springings; and thermal effects. Here the service and full-scale stress data of three larger and/or faster ships (Containership SL-7, Bulk Carrier FOTINI-L and very large Crude Carrier UNIVERSE IRELAND) are examined for the purpose of the enventual development of hull-girder criteria. The examination is limited to extreme midship bending moment loads which are related to the ultimate strength. An assessment is made of the compatibility between the service and stress data of the distinctly different study ships and the analysis methods of SSC-240 and their assumptions for cargo ship type. Considerable insight is obtained into the probable correct mathematical approximations of the loads and their interrelationships. It appears that still-water bending moments can be approached probabilistically, however, considerable additional information on experienced loading conditions must be gathered to determine the statistical distributions. Additional effort is required to determine the suitable probabilistic expression and a synthesis method for the contribution of vibration to the extreme load. (Author).

This book was released on 2023-02-17 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: RELIABILITY EVALUATION OF DYNAMIC SYSTEMS EXCITED IN TIME DOMAIN – REDSET Multi-disciplinary approach to structural reliability analysis for dynamic loadings offering a practical alternative to the random vibration theory and simulation Reliability Evaluation of Dynamic Systems Excited in Time Domain – REDSET is a multidisciplinary concept that enables readers to estimate the underlying risk that could not be solved in the past. The major hurdle was that the required limit state functions (LSFs) are implicit in nature and the lack of progress in the reliability evaluation methods for this class of problems. The most sophisticated deterministic analysis requires that the dynamic loadings must be applied in the time domain. To satisfy these requirements, REDSET is developed. Different types and forms of dynamic loadings including seismic, wind-induced wave, and thermomechanical loading in the form of heating and cooling of solder balls used in computer chips are considered to validate REDSET. Time domain representations and the uncertainty quantification procedures including the use of multiple time histories are proposed and demonstrated for all these dynamic loadings. Both onshore and offshore structures are used for validation. The potential of REDSET is demonstrated for implementing the Performance Based Seismic Design (PBSD) concept now under development in the United States. For wider multidisciplinary applications, structures are represented by finite elements to capture different types of nonlinearity more appropriately. Any computer program capable of conducting nonlinear time domain dynamic analysis can be used, and the underlying risk can be estimated with the help of several dozens or hundreds of deterministic finite element analyses, providing an alternative to the simulation approach. To aid comprehension of REDSET, numerous illustrative examples and solution strategies are presented in each chapter. Written by award-winning thought leaders from academia and professional practice, the following sample topics are included: Fundamentals of reliability assessment including set theory, modeling of uncertainty, the risk-based engineering design concept, and the evolution of reliability assessment methods Implicit performance or limit state functions are expressed explicitly by the extensively modified response surface method with several new experimental designs Uncertainty quantification procedures with multiple time histories for different dynamic loadings, illustrated with examples The underlying risk can be estimated using any computer program representing structures by finite elements with only few deterministic analyses REDSET is demonstrated to be an alternative to the classical random vibration concept and the basic simulation procedure for risk estimation purposes REDSET changes the current engineering design paradigm. Instead of conducting one deterministic analysis, a design can be made more dynamic load tolerant, resilient, and sustainable with the help of a few additional deterministic analyses This book describing REDSET is expected to complement two other books published by Wiley and authored by Haldar and Mahadevan: Probability, Reliability and Statistical Methods in Engineering Design and Reliability Assessment Using Stochastic Finite Element Analysis. The book is perfect to use as a supplementary resource for upper-level undergraduate and graduate level courses on reliability and risk-based design.

A detailed description of waterjet propulsion is given and the effect of water depth on wash, resistance, sinkage and trim is discussed. Chapter topics include resistance and wash; slamming; air cushion-supported vessels, including a detailed discussion of wave-excited resonant oscillations in air cushion; and hydrofoil vessels. The book contains numerous illustrations, examples and exercises.
