  • Design rules for marine fish farms in Norway. Calculation of the structural response of such flexible structures to verify structural integrity

    Authors

    Date published

    2004

    Abstract

    From April 2004 all new marine fish farms in Norway need to be certified to comply with technical criteria in a new Norwegian Standard NS 9415 (NAS 2003). This paper gives an overview of the design rules. The paper describes how loads and response are derived on the fish farm structures. In order to account for the large geometrical deflections occurring in fish farm components such as the net and anchor cables which interacts with stiffer structural components time domain simulations analysis of such facilities is required to assess the structural integrity. This paper reports a proposed practical calculation method and results from model tests which have been carried out to validate calculations. Additionally some applications are described.

  • Det Norske Veritas requirements for direct calculation methods of high-speed and light craft

    Authors

    Oyvind Pettersen ; Karl M Wiklund

    Date published

    1999

    Abstract

    In July 1999 a new booklet Pt 3 Ch 9 Direct Calculation Methods was introduced in DNV rules for Classification of High-Speed and Light Craft. This chapter includes requirements for hydrodynamic analyses global as well as local finite element models ultimate strength and fatigue strength analyses. The development of numerical tools especially for sea keeping and wave load predictions is growing rapidly and the rules also include requirements for verification and documentation of the computer programs. Background information is presented followed by an overview of the new rules for direct calculations. An extract of the rules is given first followed by an explanation of the levels of direct calculations that are provided i.e. for various sizes and types of craft. Finally the extreme response evaluation for an HSLC is discussed together with the documentation of computer programmes.

  • Development of reliability-based classification rules for tankers

    Authors

    J S Spencer ; P H Wirsching ; X Wang et al.

    Date published

    2006

    Abstract

    Probability-based design promises the production of well-designed systems. Its basic advantage is the inclusion of more information into the design process than would generally be included in conventional design practices. Here the focus is on the application of probability-based design to establish a consistent code for tankers. An approach has been developed for formulating a code for design of ship structures to achieve uniform structural safety (reliability index) independent of ship size of magnitude of the design variables. The approach is based on the PSF (partial safety factor) format and a prescribed reliability level determined from calibration with existing classification society rules. Examples are presented for determining criteria for section modulus and initial scantlings of tankers. Formulations are based on material yield strength buckling ultimate strength and fatigue reliability.

  • Evaluation of IACS common structural rules in terms of ultimate limit state design and assessment of ship structures

    Authors

    Date published

    2007

    Abstract

    The ultimate limit state performance is evaluated of an AFRAMAX-class hypothetical double hull oil tanker structure designed by the IACS CSR (Common Structural Rules) method compared with the same class-type tanker structure designed by IACS pre-CSR method. The ultimate strengths of stiffened plate structures in deck and bottom parts under combined in-plane and out-of-plane actions and hull girder against vertical bending moment are computed for the two designs and the resulting computations are compared. The ALPS-ULSAP program is used for the ultimate limit state assessment of stiffened plate structures while the ALPS-HULL program is used for the progressive hull collapse analysis. ANSYS non-linear FEA method which uses more refined technology is also used for the same purpose. The insights and developments obtained from the present study are addressed.

  • Latest findings in the development of rules for design and evaluation of marine pipelines in the Gulf of Mexico

    Authors

    Date published

    2004

    Abstract

    The paper presents the work carried out by the Instituto Mexicano del Petroleo (IMP) during the last years regarding the development of local rules for the design and reassessment of marine pipelines. This work takes into account environmental and operational conditions in the Gulf of Mexico as well as economic implications of these facilities within Mexican social and political fields. The costs for Petroleos Mexicanos (Pemex) of a possible failure of a marine pipeline are also considered. The results will be incorporated in a Norm of Reference to Pemex being the first regulating national document in this area.
