Description
This course focuses on analysis of jackets including the environment (hydrodynamic environment and pile-soil foundation). Concept modelling of the jacket and environment is done in GeniE, wave load analysis in Wajac, non-linear pile-soil analysis in Splice, linear static analysis in Sestra and, finally, code checking of beams and tubular joints in GeniE. The course also focuses re-design of member. Fatigue analysis in Framework is also briefly presented.

Learning objectives
Learn how to model jackets with tubular joints, compute wave loads, perform structure-pile-soil interaction analysis and code check the results. The exercise is based on a jacket structure including environment.

Target group
Structural engineers performing design engineering tasks of jackets and jack-ups.
