... Abstract The effect of hydroelasticity on local structural response due to measured wave impact loads are discussed. The structure considered are the vertical beams at the upper flare of a SEVAN SSP FPSO. The first method uses a modal method with uniform and constant added mass. The accuracy...

.... The focus is on beam-sea waves impacting the side of the ship. Existing rules and design practice account for dynamic wave loads but not large impulsive loading outside of the area vulnerable to bow-or stern slamming loads. A calculation framework is established that can be used to quantify how the risk...

... is not straightforward, and in practical applications, it typically does not consider hydro-elastic effects, except for possibly incorporating added mass. So, how effective are these FEA calculations? Here FE analysis of a concrete shell covering a section of a monopile is carried out. The wave impact pressures used...

... Abstract Design of offshore structures must be designed against wave impacts. The local structural integrity of the stiffened panels is often checked by finite element analysis (FEA). The design critical slamming loads used as input to the FEA is often obtained from model tests in ocean basins...

... Abstract Given the intricate nature of wave impact, encompassing phenomena like air entrapment and turbulent mixing, laboratory measurement techniques have struggled to fully capture the flow field without constraints. In the past twenty years, numerical modeling has emerged as a valuable tool...

... Abstract A fully nonlinear numerical wave tank (NWT) is set up for extreme wave modelling and wave impact simulation. As a first step, a focused wave train was model and the focal location where the steep focused wave is close to breaking was determined. Subsequently, an in-depth investigation...

... Abstract Due to the random nature of extreme waves, wave impacts follow a highly stochastic pattern. To reduce the statistical uncertainties that are naturally arising in estimates of design loads related to extreme waves, sufficient data must be gathered. The first step in a design load...

... Abstract Slamming loads due to wave impact is a topic which can be related to several different situations in the areas of ocean engineering, such as the lowering of a subsea module through the wave splash zone during launching operations or wave loads underneath riser decks and other...

... adequacy of existing designs operating in harsh environment such as North Sea. A comprehensive assessment of the consequences of wave impact on the deck structure of a semi-submersible is still required to understand the safety and reliability of such units subjected to similar incidents. This review paper...

... and includes cracks, dents from wave actions, anchor impact on structures, horizontal and vertical wave impacts and ship collisions. In addition, failure of the dynamic position keeping system, mooring system breakage and incidents related to stability and ballasting have been reported. The paper provides...
