Effects of Common Structural Rules on hull-girder reliability of an Aframax oil tanker
This paper aims at quantifying the changes in notional reliability levels that result from redesigning an existing Aframax tanker to comply with the Common Structural Rules (CSR) for double-hull oil tankers. The probability of structural failure is calculated using the first-order reliability method. The evaluation of the wave-induced load effects that occur during long-term operation of the sh...
متن کاملRisk Assessment of FPSOs, with Emphasis on Collision
Functional and safety design criteria for FPSOs are briefly reviewed, with a focus of design for safety according to a Accidental Collapse Limit State formulation. The risk of failure is examined by summarizing accident experiences with FPSOs as well as by using a risk assessment methodology. Particular emphasis is placed on methods to estimate the probability of ship collisions and the damage ...
متن کاملStructural Reliability Analysis of Corroded Steel Girder Bridge
The natural aging, environmental impact, and appropriate design are certainly playing a serious role in safety of the bridges function. The functional safety of bridge constitutes a prime element of the transportation system serving commuters, passengers and freight. According to Federal Highway Administration, the steel bridges share represents a large amount of the United States' bridges. In ...
متن کاملAnalysis of Girder Differential Deflection and Web Gap Stress for Rapid Assessment of Distortional Fatigue in Multi-Girder Steel Bridges
Distortion-induced fatigue cracking in unstiffened web gaps is common in steel bridges. Previous research by the Minnesota Department of Transportation (Mn/DOT) developed methods to predict the peak web gap stress and maximum differential deflection based upon field data and finite element analyses from two skew supported steel bridges with staggered bent-plate and cross-brace diaphragms, respe...
