This book presents the various types and forms of marine structures and the functions and limitations of different offshore platforms, and describes their potential environmental loads. It discusses the ultimate load design, plastic design, shear center, and theories of failure, leading to a detailed understanding of plastic design and dynamics. It also explains the details of fluid-structure interaction as well as fracture and fatigue. It emphasizes basic concepts through simple illustrative examples and exercises, and explains design methodologies and guidelines through example structures.
Due in part to a growing demand for offshore oil and gas exploration, the development of marine structures that initially started onshore is now moving into deeper offshore areas. Designers are discovering a need to revisit basic concepts as they anticipate the response behavior of marine structures to increased water depths. Providing a simplified approach to the subject, Advanced Marine Structures explains the fundamentals and advanced concepts of marine architecture introduces various types of offshore platforms, and outlines the different stages of marine structure analysis and design.
Written from a structural engineering perspective, this book focuses on structures constructed for offshore oil and gas exploration, various environmental loads, ultimate load design, fluid-structure interaction, fatigue, and fracture. It also offers detailed descriptions of different types of structural forms, functions and limitations of offshore platforms and explains how different loads act on each. In addition, the text incorporates examples and application problems to illustrate the use of experimental, numerical, and analytical studies in the design and development of marine structures, and reviews relevant literature on wave interaction and porous cylinders.
