... Abstract The long-term distribution of stress cycles is a crucial part of the fatigue life assessment of offshore structures. This research studies the wave and current induced motion of a top tensioned riser connected to a semi-submersible platform. To account for the directionality...

... Abstract It is essential to calculate the mechanical stress efficiently in power cables, umbilicals and hybrids to reduce the risk of failure and halts during production, transportation, installation and operation phases. The global analysis, where these conditions are simulated, can under...

... in floaters such as Spars, TLPs or Semis as well as local structural supports such as mooring foundations and riser foundations. It also provides the option to generate stress histograms that can be utilized for Fracture Mechanics Evaluation (FME) of welds in structural connections. To calculate...

... 11 01 2011 The marine riser bears various power loads during operation. We designed the Quadrupole-type magnetic measurement probe based on the inverse magnetostrictive effect (the impact of stress on the magnetization) and performed finite element simulation and experimental analysis...
