Monitoring VIV fatigue damage on marine risers
Long flexible cylinders (e.g. risers, tendons, mooring lines) exposed to the marine environment encounter ocean currents leading to vortex-induced vibration (VIV). These oscillations, often driven at high frequencies over extended periods of time may result in structural failure of the member due to fatigue damage accumulation. Recent developments in instrumentation and installation of data acq...
متن کاملDynamic Plastic Deformation of Deepwater Steel Catenary Risers Under Extreme Cyclic Compressive Loading
This paper (SPE 173892) was revised for publication from paper OTC 25335, first presented at the Offshore Technology Conference, Houston, 5–8 May 2014. Original manuscript received for review 20 June 2014. Revised manuscript received for review 27 October 2014. Paper peer approved 4 November 2014. Summary Steel catenary risers (SCRs) on a large-heave-motion vessel are susceptible to compression...
متن کاملAn Influence of Trench Formation on Steel Catenary Risers Based on a Hysteretic Nonlinear Seabed Model
A steel catenary riser (SCR) attached to a floating platform at its upper end encounters fluctuations in and near its touchdown zone (TDZ), which causes the interaction with the seabed. Subsea surveys and the analysis of SCR’s indicated that the greatest stress and highest damage occurred near the touchdown point (TDP), where the SCR first touches the seabed. Nowadays, the linear seabed spring ...
متن کاملPassive Vibration Control for Fatigue Damage Mitigation in Steel Jacket Platforms
Considering the stress cycles in the joints and members due to wave induced forces on offshore platforms, fatigue analysis is therefore one of the most important analyses in the offshore platforms design. Although most of the steel jacket type platforms are designed and located in areas with relatively high ratios of operational sea-states, for maximum environmental events, would have acceptabl...
متن کاملFatigue Damage
Prevention of unexpected failures is a fundamental design objective in any engineering structure or system subjected to fatigue. Nevertheless, the complexity of modern structures and the interactivity among engineering systems, coupled with human fallibility, means that failure and its consequences can only be avoided to a statistical probability. Hence, occasional catastrophic failures will oc...
