A comparative analysis of the fluid-structure interaction method and the constant added mass method for ice-structure collisions
Song, Ming; Kim, Ekaterina; Amdahl, Jørgen; Ma, Jun; Huang, Yi (Journal article, 2016)The constant added mass (CAM) method and the fluid-structure interaction (FSI) method are widely used to simulate ship-ship and ship-ice collisions. In the CAM method, the hydrodynamic effect of the surrounding water is ... -

Accidental Impact Resistance of non-disconnectable bouy type FPSO
Slagstad, Martin (Master thesis, 2014)The surroundings of offshore structures consist of many components controlled by nature, but also some that are managed by people- ships. Due these factors, ship collisions are a constant threat to offshore installations ... -
Active Load Mitigation to Counter the Fatigue Damage Contributions From Unavailability in Offshore Wind Turbines
Sørum, Stian Høegh; Smilden, Emil; Amdahl, Jørgen; Sørensen, Asgeir Johan (Chapter, 2018)The offshore wind industry continues to grow, but there is still a need for more economical designs. As unavailability conditions can be critical for the fatigue damage in support structures, design standards use conservative ... -
Adequate linearization scheme for a jack-up in order to obtain sufficiently accurate fatigue assessments using a linear stochastic fatigue analyses
Karlsson, Marius Tveit (Master thesis, 2017)Different techniques for linearizing the response of drag dominated structures is in this work inspected in terms of fatigue damage. To establish reference response characteristics, time domain simulations are carried out. ... -
Alternative methods of realizing the sea spectrum for time-domain simulations of marine structures in irregular seas
Bækkedal, Eivind (Master thesis, 2014)For dynamically sensitive structures or marine structures subjected to large displacements the extreme response is often determined on the basis of short term time domain simulation of extreme sea states using the environmental ... -
An efficient approach for ship collision design of reinforced concrete pontoon walls
Sha, Yanyan; Amdahl, Jørgen; Yang, Kun (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)This paper presents an efficient method for collision design of prestressed concrete pontoon walls. High fidelity finite element models of a container ship bow and a prestressed concrete pontoon wall are first established. ... -
Analyse og dimensjonering av Halsafjordens strekkstag understøttede hengebro utsatt for støt fra store skip
Holm, Jørgen Thode Gryteland (Master thesis, 2016)I 2014 la Stortinget frem ambisjonen om å bygge broer for å erstatte fergesambandene på alle fjordkrysningene langs E-39 mellom Kristiansand og Trondheim. Flere av fjordene er så dype og brede at det ikke er gjennomførbart ... -
