In existing analytical solutions by Kerr and Hobbs, it is assumed that the seabed resistance q0 to lateral pipe movements is constant in magnitude, and opposite in direction to the total displacement. Here it is opposite to the velocity instead, i.e. the seabed is taken to be frictional rather than nonlinear elastic with a V-shaped potential function. A 3-lobe (“Mode 3f”) analytical solution is provided for the frictional case, using the same approximate end-of-buckle condition v=v'=v''=0 used by Hobbs in his “Mode 3” solution for the nonlinear elastic case. For both Mode 3 and 3f solutions, the shape of the buckle does not change as it grows with increasing thermal expansion, though the scaling factors in the axial and lateral directions are different, i.e. the solutions are self-similar. A single finite element solution for the frictional case with an initial imperfection imposed by a bumper can be scaled to cover all such cases. It shows that the shape of the buckle depends on the amplitude of the initial triggering imperfection, and is close to the Mode 3f solution for very small initial imperfections. The difference between Mode 3 and 3f is significant in regard to buckle shape and the relative size of the buckle lobes, but small in regard to the maximum bending moment for a given amount of thermal expansion accommodated by the buckle.","PeriodicalId":50106,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Offshore Mechanics and Arctic Engineering-Transactions of the Asme","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2023-01-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42334165","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The idea conceived, is based on the amplified wave power absorption due to the wave interactions originated from the presence of the breakwater. A theoretical analysis is presented in the realm of linear potential theory, based on the solution of proper diffraction, and radiation problems in the frequency domain, using the eigenfunction expansion method, the method of images and the multiple scattering approach. Optimum absorption efficiency is examined taking into consideration the characteristics of the Power Take Off (PTO) system and the air compressibility. Numerical results are presented and discussed in terms of the expected power absorption. The effect of the distance between the OWC and the vertical walls, the breakwater's forming angle, and the wave heading angle, is examined to demonstrate the enhanced absorption ability of the device. It is concluded that the device's efficiency is strongly dependent on the position of the OWC in front of the walls, as well as the angle of the wave impact, and should be taken into account when determining the optimum device parameters for maximization of its performance.","PeriodicalId":50106,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Offshore Mechanics and Arctic Engineering-Transactions of the Asme","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2023-01-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44862291","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Wave and wind induced loads on the installation system can cause large relative motion between the blade root and the hub during the mating process. Currently, several numerical tools are used to analyse such critical global motion responses; however, the industry suffers from lack of experiments and full-scale measurements to validate the accuracy of these results. Consequently, a code-to-code comparison exercise becomes critical as it allows comparing different numerical tools for reliable prediction and verification of results. In the present paper, a numerical model of the offshore wind turbine blade mating process using a jack-up crane vessel is developed in OrcaFlex, and a code-to-code comparison is performed against SIMA; both these tools are immensely used in the industry for modelling marine operations. Different comparisons are made between both the tools such as: (1) modal analyses of the jack-up vessel and the blade lifting gear, (2) time-domain analysis of the fully coupled installation vessel-crane-blade system, and (3) a comprehensive sensitivity study based on different seed numbers and simulation periods. The results of the study show a good agreement between both the tools with a deviation of less than 3% in terms of modal analysis and less than 5% variation in time domain results. Further, the paper provides modelling guidelines for the industry practitioners that heavily rely on both the tools for modelling marine operations.","PeriodicalId":50106,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Offshore Mechanics and Arctic Engineering-Transactions of the Asme","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2023-01-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42352818","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Dynamic responses under combined currents and waves are more complicated than vortex-induced vibrations (VIV) due to pure currents, and it is not fully understood. Several model test campaigns on top-tensioned riser (TTR) have been carried out at SINTEF Ocean (former MARINTEK) during the past decades. Currents, waves and vessel motions were modeled, and the riser model responses were measured. In this study, selected cases from such model tests are analysed, and used to validate a semi-empirical time domain VIV prediction tool – VIVANA-TD. A better understanding of the dynamic responses of TTR under combined currents and waves has been achieved. By comparing the results from numerical simulation using VIVANA-TD and model test measurements, validity and limitation of the time domain tool have been investigated. Important features that need to be considered are discussed.

A dynamic mooring model is coupled with the CFD code to accurately simulate the mooring system. For the bichromatic wave case, the surge, heave and pitch RAOs at wave frequencies, mean surge offset and mean surge force of the semi-submersible platform are investigated. The numerical uncertainties of the above metrics are quantified, which are primarily sourced from the discretization uncertainty. For the random wave case, the surge, heave and pitch PSD sums in wave frequency range and low frequency range are validated against the experimental results. The numerical uncertainty derived from the bichromatic wave case is applied in the validation of the random wave case. The PSD sums in wave frequency range have achieved the validation within the validation uncertainty. Though the PSD sums in low frequency range are under-predicted, the results with the utilization of the CFD code agree more with the experimental value than the mid-fidelity tools.","PeriodicalId":50106,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Offshore Mechanics and Arctic Engineering-Transactions of the Asme","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2022-12-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49413129","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The SST will be deployed to transport CO2 to marginal subsea fields with an annual CO2 storage capacity around 1 million tonnes. A baseline design was recently developed by the authors to support research work aimed at assessing large and ultra-efficient subsea cargo drone technology. One crucial aspect is the development of SST's operation envelope, i.e., the safe depth versus speed regions. The development of this envelope entails comprehensive and detailed studies of SST's dynamic load-effects under all expected operating scenarios which in the early concept development phase can be performed using suitable computational models. In this technical brief, the initial development of such a model is unveiled. This fully coupled 2D planar model considers the most relevant load-effects which are from hydrodynamics, hydrostatics, and control surface induced loads. The most important features of the model such as the derivation of hydrodynamic derivatives and model verification are also discussed. As an example, this model is then used to study the depth control problem which is a key aspect in the determination of the safety operational envelope. The results show that unsuitable control schemes that do not look ahead in the trajectory lead to undesirable results. In contrast, a feed-forward heading control method achieves a good and fast control response.","PeriodicalId":50106,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Offshore Mechanics and Arctic Engineering-Transactions of the Asme","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2022-12-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48020793","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Owing to UiS subsea-freight glider's (USFG) exceedingly economical and unique propulsion system, it can transport various types of cargo over variable distances. The primary use-case scenario for the USFG is to serve as an autonomous transport vessel to carry CO2 from land-based facilities to subsea injection sites. This allows the USFG to serve as a substitute for weather-dependent cargo tankers and underwater pipelines. The length of the USFG is 50.25 m along with a beam of 5.50 m, which allows the vessel to carry 518 m3 of CO2 while serving the storage needs of the carbon capture and storage (CCS) ventures on the Norwegian continental shelf. The USFG is powered by battery cells, and it only consumes a little less than 8 kW of electrical power. Along with the mechanical design of the USFG, the control design is also presented in the final part of the paper. The manoeuvring model of the USFG is presented along with two operational case studies. For this purpose, an LQR and PID-based control system is designed, and a detailed comparison study is also shown in terms of tuning and response characteristics for both controllers.","PeriodicalId":50106,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Offshore Mechanics and Arctic Engineering-Transactions of the Asme","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2022-12-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47989017","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using data as well as contrasting synthetic simulations of relevant weather variables, we demonstrate the robustness/versatility of the MDP model. Two case studies-one involving constant and another involving time-dependent downtime costs-are conducted to demonstrate how the proposed MDP framework incorporates weather patterns from available data and can offer optimal policies for distinct metocean conditions (i.e., temporal variations in the weather). A realistic example that illustrates the implementation of the proposed framework for multiple O&M issues involving salmon net pens and wave energy converters demonstrates how our optimal policies can minimize O&M costs and maximize crew safety almost as if the true future were known for scheduling.","PeriodicalId":50106,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Offshore Mechanics and Arctic Engineering-Transactions of the Asme","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2022-11-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42170129","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
