• ACCURACY OF SIMPLIFIED METHODS FOR FATIGUE DAMAGE ESTIMATION OF EXPOSED FISH FARMS 

      Bore, Pål Takle; Amdahl, Jørgen (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      Fish farms are being placed in more exposed locations than earlier, encouraged by the “development licenses” that the Norwegian Directorate of Fisheries have introduced. Traditional design methods for estimating fatigue ...
    • Drilling in Karstified Carbonates: Early Risk Detection Technique 

      Maksimov, Danil; Pavlov, Alexey; Sangesland, Sigbjørn (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      Heterogeneous nature and complex rock properties of carbonate reservoirs makes the drilling process challenging. One of these challenges is uncontrolled mud loss. Caves or a system of cavities could be a high-risk zone for ...
    • Dynamic Response of A Large-Diameter Monopile Considering 35-Hour Storm Conditions 

      Bachynski, Erin Elizabeth; Page, Ana M.; Katsikogiannis, George (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)
      As a part of the assessment of foundation resistance for monopiles, several offshore wind standards prescribe symmetric 35-hour (or 42-hour) storm sequences in terms of wind speed and significant wave height. The temporal ...
    • Fatigue Assessment of Mooring Chain Considering the Effects Of Mean Load and Corrosion 

      Lone, Erling Neerland; Sauder, Thomas Michel; Larsen, Kjell; Leira, Bernt Johan (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      Results from full scale fatigue tests of offshore mooring chains performed in recent years have revealed considerable influence of both mean load and corrosion condition on the fatigue capacity. It has been shown that a ...
    • Hydrodynamic Loads on Net Panels With Different Solidities 

      Føre, Heidi Moe; Endresen, Per Christian; Norvik, Carina; Lader, Pål Furset (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)
      Drag forces on nets represent the largest contribution to hydrodynamic loads on traditional fish farms, and will have a large impact on total loads on new designs utilizing netting as containment method. Precise methods ...
    • System Uncertainty Effects on the Wave Frequency Response of Floating Vessels Based on Polynomial Chaos Expansion 

      Radhakrishnan, Gowtham; Han, Xu; Sævik, Svein; Gao, Zhen; Leira, Bernt Johan (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      From a mathematical viewpoint, the frequency domain analysis of vessel motion responses due to wave actions incorporates the integration of system dynamics idealized in terms of response amplitude operators (RAOs) for 6 ...
