Contents:
chapter 1 - Offshore Operations and Structural Development -- chapter 2 - Components of a Typical Offshore Structure -- chapter 3 - Ocean Environment: Wind, Wave, Current, Tides, Ice, and Seismic Effects -- chapter 4 - Seabed Mechanics -- chapter 5 - Materials and Their Behavior in the Ocean Environment -- chapter 6 - Environmental Forces on Offshore Structures -- chapter 7 - Fundamental Considerations for Framed Offshore Structural Analysis -- chapter 8 - Analysis and Design Considerations for Framed Steel Offshore Platforms -- chapter 9 - Analysis and Design of Concrete Gravity Platforms.
Abstract: Essentials of Offshore Structures: Framed and Gravity Platforms examines the engineering ideas and offshore drilling platforms for exploration and production. This book offers a clear and acceptable demonstration of both the theory and application of the relevant procedures of structural, fluid, and geotechnical mechanics to offshore structures. It makes available a multitude of "solved problems" and "sample problems to solve" which give readers a strong understanding of the analysis and design of steel-framed and base-supported concrete gravity offshore structures. The book highlights sensible engineering applications for offshore structural design, research, and development; it can also be useful to those working in the design industry.
