Abstract: The paper discusses the problem of estimating the response statistics of moored large-volume offshore structures subjected to short-crested random waves. A general second-order theory is described ...

Abstract: The paper highlights the problem of evaluating the extreme surge response of a floating, deep water structure subjected to stochastic loading from concurrent wind and waves. Additional load ...

Abstract: The use in the offshore engineering industry of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) to estimate the hydrodynamic forces due to steady, turbulent currents on offshore structures has so far been ...
