  • Simulation of random, nonlinear wave forces on a circular cylindrical pile

    Creator:
    Tuah, Hang
    Abstract:
    Two types of linear random wave simulation methods are investigated; viz., (1) Deterministic Spectral Amplitude (DSA) and (2) Nondeterministic Spectral Amplitude (NSA). These linear simulations are extended to second-order in a perturbation expansion in the frequency domain by utilizing a Fast Fourier Transform (FFT). The nonlinear interaction matrix for waves...

  • Coupled response of compliant offshore platforms

    Creator:
    Young, Raymond A.
    Abstract:
    A three dimensional finite element analysis is developed which is capable of simulating the coupled static and dynamic behavior of compliant ocean structures. Nonlinearities which result from large-deflection, reduced or zero stiffness in compression, and the nonconservative fluid loading are considered. The spatial variation of fluid loading is also addressed....
