The Calculating Model of Structural Analysis for Jack-Up Rig Legs     

Gu Guowei  Huang Youqing Senier Engineer  China Ofishore Oil Development & Engineering Corporation   《中国海洋工程》1993,(4)

- The selection or establishment of structural calculating model is a matter of primary importance in structural analysis. By analysing the irrationality of the calculating models used by some research organizations at home and abroad in structural analyses for truss jack-up rig legs, this paper introduces a new calculation model which is more reasonable. This model can simulate better the load situation of a rig reflecting more precisely the effects of the leg loads caused by the spring support of gearboxes of the jacking system and the secondary bending moment raised by hull displacement under extreme conditions. The rig conversion was completed in 1989. In July 1991 the rig safely stood the frontal hitting of Typhoon with the wind speed of 52 m / s, which shows that the checking on the structure is correct.  相似文献   

Design estimates of surface wave interaction with compliant deepwater platforms     

J. M. Niedzwecki  J. W. van de Lindt  J. H. Gage  P. S. Teigen 《Ocean Engineering》2000,27(8)

The extreme behavior of surface waves as they encounter and pass compliant deepwater platforms is an important class of problems for offshore engineers attempting to specify the platform deck elevation. In this study analytical expressions for the probability density and cumulative distribution functions that utilize empirical coefficients in an attempt to accurately model surface wave runup and airgap problems are presented. The analysis focuses upon interpreting the tails of the measured data histograms using two parameter Weibull distribution models. The appropriate empirical constants, assumed to be solely dependent upon the significant wave height, were evaluated and compared for all the test data. Based upon a small select set of data, for a mini-TLP and two Spar platforms, the airgap problem was found to be adequately modeled using a Rayleigh distribution. Further, for the seven seastates analyzed, the Weibull shape parameter was nearly constant and the data confirmed that the exclusive fit of the scale parameter assuming dependence only on the significant wave height was a reasonable approach for modeling the wave runup. Finally, by combining these models with a Poisson return model for each storm the associated reliability estimates for various deck heights were estimated.  相似文献   

基于环境包络线法的深水浮式平台极值响应长期预报

海上结构设计包括对荷载和响应的可靠性评估。对结构进行全面长期响应分析繁琐且费时,故将基于逆一阶可靠性方法的环境包络线进行海上结构概率可靠性分析,对结构的长期响应进行近似估计。在二维标准正态空间中画出与重现期相对应的圆,将圆离散为点后通过Rosenblatt变换转化为环境参数空间中的点来形成闭合的环境包络线。描述海洋环境条件的模型对绘制环境包络线极为重要,基于我国南海荔湾海域40年波浪模拟数据,建立了描述南海波浪的Weibull-Gev条件分布模型,进而绘制南海有效波高—谱峰周期包络线,并与张力腿平台(TLP)系泊张力的长期响应预报结果对比,给出南海海域在波浪作用下应用环境包络线法预报TLP系泊张力的分位数,为未来南海TLP设计中系泊张力预报提供快速估算方法。  相似文献   

随机波浪中张力腿平台耦合运动及系泊系统特性研究     

谷家扬  吕海宁  杨建民 《海洋工程》2012,30(4):42-48

张力腿平台(TLP)是一种垂直系泊的半顺应半刚度式平台,预报平台的运动响应及锚泊系统的张力是张力腿平台结构设计的重要基础。应用挪威船级社SESAM软件在频域和时域内研究了张力腿平台在随机波浪中的非线性运动响应及系泊系统特性,并在试验室中通过缩尺比为1∶40的模型进行了试验验证。在试验验证的基础上,将仅考虑浪与考虑浪、流联合作用下的张力腿的张力平均值、幅值及标准差作了对比。结果表明,在较低海况时,考虑浪和流时的张力腿与不考虑流的情况变化不大;在较大海况时,流的影响不可忽略,考虑流的张力腿变化幅度要略大于不考虑流的情况。  相似文献   

Nonlinear Dynamic Responses of Tension Leg Platform with Slack-Taut Tether     

曾晓辉  李宣文  刘洋  吴应湘 《中国海洋工程》2009,23(1)

The slack-taut state of tether is a particular adverse circumstance,which may influence the normal operation state of tension leg platform (TLP).The dynamic responses of TLP with slack-taut tenor are studied with consideration of several nonlinear factors introduced by large amphliude motions.The time histories of stresses of tethers of a typical TLP in slacktaut state are given.In addition,the sensitivities of slack to stiffness and mass are investigated by varying the stiffness of tether and mass of TLP.It is found that slack is sensitive to the mass of TLP.The critical curved surfaces (over which indicates the slack) for the increase of mass are obtained.  相似文献   

搅拌桩内套打钻孔灌注桩在暗浜深基坑围护工程中的应用     

周友清 《福建地质》2013,(4):320-324

在暗浜地层内施工钻孔灌注桩时,易产生钻孔扩径、孔内塌方事故,产生“叉腿桩”及诱发搅拌桩次生“叉腿”,造成钻孔灌注桩与搅拌桩之间的产生大的缝隙.基坑开挖时,基坑外侧的地下水沿缝隙渗入,造成基坑外侧土体压缩变形,引起地表开裂、产生不均匀沉降.搅拌桩内套打钻孔灌注桩系先用低渗入量水泥将暗浜土搅拌成复合土,提高暗浜土的质量,然后在复合土内钻进成桩,其作用是避免钻孔灌注桩在暗浜土段的扩径、塌方超灌事故,确保了基坑桩基围护工程施工质量.  相似文献   

Body size and leg length variation in several species of darkling beetles (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae) along a rainfall and altitudinal gradient in the Negev Desert (Israel)     

B. Krasnov  D. Ward  G. Shenbrot 《Journal of Arid Environments》1996,34(4):477-489

We studied body size (elytra length) and leg length variation in seven tenebrionid species along a rainfall and environmental gradient from the Ramon erosion cirque (Israel). Body size was not correlated with altitude in three species, while four species demonstrated changes in body size with altitude. Three species decreased their body size along the altitudinal gradient, whereasSepidium dathandemonstrated the opposite trend. The pattern of variation of body size along the altitudinal gradient inAdesmia metallica, Erodius edomitusandZophosis complanatamay be explained by ambient temperature rather than productivity variation. Neither elevation nor species abundance affected variance in body size of any species. Femur length changed significantly along the altitudinal gradient inA. metallicaonly. Both males and females had relatively longer legs in low elevations and relatively shorter legs in high elevations. Individuals with the longest legs were recorded on soils with low clay and high rock and gravel content. The texture of the soil had no noticeable effect on the leg length of all other beetle species.  相似文献

The element stiffness matrix of the equivalent beam or pipe element of the deformed leg of the platform is derived by the finite element method. The stresses and displacements of some damaged components are calculated, and the numeri-cal solutions agree well with those obtained by the fine mesh finite element method. Finally, as an application of this method, the stresses of some platform structures are calculated and analyzed.  相似文献

橡胶圈层数对桩腿耦合装置性能影响研究     

刘丽红  刘锦昆  蒋习民  王德禹 《海洋工程》2014,32(2):110-118

运用非线性有限元软件ABAQUS/Explicit,建立了不同橡胶圈层数的桩腿耦合装置(简称LMU)整体计算模型,并对其进行了非线性数值求解。通过对载荷-位移曲线、吸能曲线、应力和应变、速度曲线和动能曲线等的详细分析,研究了橡胶圈层数对桩腿耦合装置性能的影响。结果表明,橡胶圈层数对LMU吸能效率和橡胶圈最大应变的影响可忽略不计,但对其刚度、应力、速度和动能及其衰减速率的影响较为明显。随着橡胶圈层数的增加,LMU的刚度逐渐增大,最大应力先减小后增大,最大速度和动能逐渐减小,速度和动能的衰退速率逐渐减小。在LMU设计阶段,应考虑橡胶圈层数对LMU上述方面的影响,合理选择橡胶圈的层数,使LMU能够最有效地发挥缓冲作用。  相似文献
