Structural Design of Offshore Floaters - Day 1: Hydrodynamics & Design Loads
Technology Week | 24-27 February 2020
Date: Monday, February 24, 2020 from 8:30 am to 4:00 pm
The course can be taken as standalone or part of the 2-day course.
Value for attending
Gain background knowledge and some practical experience on hydrodynamic analysis and design wave selection/calculation for structural design.
Main Content
This course is a combination of lectures and hands-on practice.
Lectures will cover an introduction to:
- Motion analysis of various unit types
- Response calculation
- Design wave selection
Participants will solve design examples, assisted by course lecturers:
- Motion analysis of FPSO using HydroD and POSTRESP
- Design wave selection of semi-submersible
The examples will cover a variety of floater types.
