Environmental contours are used to simplify the process of design response analysis. A wide variety contour methods exist; however, there have been a very limited number comparisons these date. This paper is output an open benchmarking exercise, in which contributors developed based on their preferred and submitted them for blind comparison study. The exercise had two components—one, focusing robustness across different offshore sites and, other, characterizing sampling uncertainty. Nine...

This article presents a four-dimensional (4D) path integration (PI) approach to study the stochastic roll response and reliability of vessel in random beam seas. Specifically, 4D Markov dynamic system is established by combing single-degree-of freedom model used represent ship rolling behavior seas with second-order linear filter approximate stationary excitation moment. On basis property coupled system, statistics motion can be obtained solving Fokker-Planck equation via PI method. The...

In this paper, the short-term extreme value statistics of ice loads acting on ship hull and fatigue damage due to actions are studied. Due stochastic nature ice-induced randomness thickness, probabilistic methods models applied in order find some correlations between prevailing conditions. For prediction, average conditional exceedance rate method is approximate exact distribution. The estimated based S–N curve approach. Furthermore, models, such as Weibull distribution three-parameter...

A novel structure combining the application of control rods and forced rotation on a cylinder is proposed based cylindrical vibration suppression, combined numerically simulated at low Reynolds number 200, an attack angle 0°–105°, rate 0−1. The vortex-induced responses, fluid forces, wake evolution are analyzed, VIV suppression compared discussed. results show that merging vortex layers promotes shedding, causing high amplitude response. vibrates for no layer merging. Rotation causes...

Numerical simulations are carried out to investigate the vortex-induced vibrations of a two-degree-of-freedom (2DOF) near-wall rotating cylinder. Considering effects gap ratio, reduced velocity and rotational rate, amplitude response, wake variations fluid forces analyzed, with Reynolds number 200 mass ratio set 1.6. The correlative mechanism in wake–hydrodynamics–vibration is revealed. results show that influence wall dominates vibration effect on weakens as increases, negligible when H/D...
