This book introduces readers to various types of offshore platform
geometries. It addresses the various environmental loads
encountered by these structures, and provides detailed descriptions
of the fundamentals of structural dynamics in a classroom style,
helping readers estimate damping in offshore structures and grasp
these aspects' applications in preliminary analysis and design.
Basic concepts of structural dynamics are emphasized through simple
illustrative examples and exercises. Design methodologies and
guidelines, which are FORM based concepts, are explained through a
selection of applied sample structures. Each chapter also features
tutorials and exercises for self-learning. A dedicated chapter on
stochastic dynamics helps students to extend the basic concepts of
structural dynamics to this advanced domain of research.
Hydrodynamic response of offshore structures with perforated
members is one of the most recent research applications, and has
proven to be one of the most effective means of retrofitting
offshore structures. In addition, the book integrates the concepts
of structural dynamics with the FORM-evolved design of offshore
structures, offering a unique approach. This new edition is divided
into seven chapters, each of which has been updated. Each chapter
also includes a section on frequently asked Questions and Answers
(Q&A), which enhances understanding of this complex subject
through easy and self-explanatory text. Furthermore, the book
presents valuable content with respect to new and recent research
carried out by the author in structural dynamics. All numeric
examples have been re-checked with more additional explanations.
New exercises have been added to improve understanding of the
subject matter. Computer coding is also included (wherever
possible) to aid computer-based learning of the contents of the
book. The book can serve as a textbook for senior undergraduate and
graduate courses in civil, structural, applied mechanics,
mechanical, aerospace, naval architecture and ocean engineering
programs. The book can also serve as a text for professional
learning and development programs or as a guide for practicing and
consulting offshore structural engineers. The contents of this book
will be useful to graduate students, researchers, and professionals
alike.
