Non-linear inertial loading and the onset of structural ringing
نویسنده
چکیده
With an increasing trend towards deep water production, the susceptibility of offshore structures to dynamic response has become an important issue. Indeed, this has been bough to the forefront by a new response phenomenon, commonly referred to as ‘ringing’, which is thought to be associated with steep near-braking waves. At present, neither the occurrence of ‘ringing’ or the mechanisms which produce this high frequency transient response are fully understood. In particular, current design solutions, which employ linear-based predictions, are unable to account for the observed behaviour.

متن کاملNon-linear Response and Dynamic Buckling Analysis of a Cylindrical Sandwich Panel with a Flexible Core under Blast Loading
In this paper, three-dimensional displacement response of a cylindrical sandwich panel with compressible core under the action of dynamic pulse loading is addressed using the extended high order sandwich panel theory. Also, local dynamic pulse buckling of facesheets is studied by considering the Budiansky-Roth buckling criterion. It is assumed that the sandwich panels consist of orthotropic fac...
