Amongst these, elements more relevant to the offshore industry will be presented in this paper. These comprise wave-induced loads, including linear and nonlinear methods, multi-body interactions, slamming, green water, sloshing and rogue waves, cables and risers, vortex-induced vibrations, ice loads, fatigue loading and, verification and validation.
