Summary on Grant Application Form |
|
Ships have not been used continuously in exposed west of Shetland locations. We still cannot predict the extreme response in large seas, where non-linear behaviour including intermittent wetting, wave slam and slap becomes very important. Since these forces affect the amount and distribution of structural strength that needs to be provided it is important that they are well understood. Costs of slight under-design can be very expensive.This project will use the results of the associated project's measured data and computer models comparison, to select suitable combinations of loading, inspection and safety factors for the resistance of fatigue and extreme loads.
