RISA Procedure to Analyze the Maneuvering Stability of FPSO Systems in the Design Stage
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The use of large floating units to operate in deep water appears as a solution adopted by the industry to produce and storage the oil and finally to transfer the oil to shuttle ships. In ...
A Two-Dimensional Numerical Investigation of the Hysteresis Effect on Vortex Induced Vibration on an Elastically Mounted Rigid Cylinder
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The hysteresis effect on the vortex induced vibration (VIV) on a circular cylinder is investigated by the numerical solution of the two-dimensional Reynolds averaged Navier-Stokes equations. An ...
Maneuvering Model for FPSOs and Stability Analysis of the Offloading Operation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The discovery of new fields in deep water brought back the use of large ships such as FPSOs. This seems to be the trend toward ultra deep water units at least in offshore Brazil. At about ...
