| Course code: | SE-07 Hydrodynamic analysis of offshore floaters - time domain |
| Duration: | 2 days |
| Dates: | On request |
| Venue: | On request |
| Course fee: | Upon enquiry |
Description
This course introduces the participants to the Sesam programs for wave load analysis of offshore floaters bases on time domain methodology. The course addresses equilibrium analysis, hydrodynamic analysis, short and long term statistics as well as load transfer of hydrodynamic results to structural analysis. Both linear and non-linear analysis is included. HydroD is the main tool supported by Wasim, Postresp and Xtract. The participants will also learn how to create panel models used by the Wasim program.
Learning objectives
Learn how to perform linear and non-linear global hydrodynamic response analysis, to transfer loads to structural analysis, to compare short and long term statistics and to animate results. The exercise is based on a semi-submersible.
Target group
Naval architects involved in conceptual studies as well as detailed egineering of any offshore floating structure.
| Prerequisite It is required that the participants are familiar with hydrodynamic analysis. Since this course does not cover the creation of models used in hydrodynamic analysis it is beneficial if the participant have knowledge in GeniE, as covered in either of the courses SE-01 Concept based FE modelling and analysis using GeniE - Introductory, SE-03 Hull modelling for hydrodynaic analysis - Introductory or SE-04 Concept based FE modelling of shell structures - Advanced. |
