About the course

Course content

Characterization of slender marine structures. Stress analysis and control of local buckling of rigid and flexible pipe cross sections. Effect from buoyancy, internal and external pressure, internal flow. Models for hydrodynamic loads. Modelling of non-linear loads in dynamic analysis. Vortex induced vibrations. Static and dynamic analysis by use of the finite element method. Stochastic analysis in time and frequency domain. Analysis of pipelines on uneven seabeds during installation and operation. Heave compensation of risers. Optimization of catenary risers.
