Contents:
1. Introduction -- 2. Advanced structural analysis -- 3. Types of fire in offshore platforms -- 4. Fire resistance -- 5. Material properties in fire -- Exercises -- Tutorials -- Key to tutorials -- Model question papers -- Key to model question papers -- References.
In: Springer Nature eBookSummary: This book provides detailed analysis methods and design guidelines for fire resistance, a vital consideration for offshore processing and production platforms. Recent advancements in the selection of various geometric structural forms for deep-water oil exploration and production require a detailed understanding of the design of offshore structures under special loads. Focusing on a relatively new aspect of offshore engineering, the book offers essential teaching material, illustrating and explaining the concepts discussed through many tutorials. It creates a basis for designing new courses for students of ocean engineering and naval architecture, civil engineering, and applied mechanics at both undergraduate and graduate levels. As such, its content can be used for self-study or as a text in structured courses and professional development programs.
