Abstract: A Bayesian framework is used for updating the probability distributions of the parameters of a fracture mechanics model and of crack size in tubular joints using information from inspection ...

Abstract: The probability of failure of steel jacket platforms subjected to fatigue damage is computed by means of Monte Carlo simulations using limit state functions in which wave, wind, and deck ...

Abstract: The present paper introduces a general framework for integrity management of offshore steel jacket structures allowing for the risk based planning of inspections and maintenance activities with ...
