Abstract:
The gradual depletion of shallow water hydrocarbon deposits has forced the offshore oil and gas industry to develop reserves in deeper waters. Dynamically installed anchors have been proposed as a cost-effective anchoring solution for floating offshore structures in deep water environments. The rocket or torpedo shaped anchor is released from a designated drop height above the seafloor and allowed to penetrate the seabed via the kinetic energy gained during free-fall and the anchor’s self weight. Dynamic anchors can be deployed in any water depth and the relatively simple fabrication and insta

Abstract:
In this thesis numerical and analytical investigations of wave-structure interactions are conducted within the linearised theory of water waves. The primary objective of the thesis was to develop a numerical time-domain solution method capable of simulating wave-structure interactions in three-dimensions involving axisymmetric structures. Although the solution method was developed for three-dimensional problems, many two-dimensional interactions were also simulated using an existing time-domain solution method. The numerical method for obtaining the solution of the time-domain water wave probl

The present work highlights some aspects related to the analyses of Arctic offshore floating structures. This thesis consists of five papers, which can be divided into two main categories. One category deals with the dynamics of slender structures with an emphasis on the prediction and suppression of vortex induced vibrations (VIV), and the other category examines the process of interaction between sloping structures and sea ice with focus on developing a numerical model to simulate this process in real time.

Abstract:
Proposed designs for Very Large Floating Structures motivate us to understand water-wave propagation through arrays of hundreds, or possibly thousands, of floating structures. The water-wave problems we study are each formulated under the usual conditions of linear wave theory. We study the frequency-domain problem of water-wave propagation through a periodically arranged array of structures, which are solved using a variety of methods. In the first instance we solve the problem for a periodically arranged infinite array using the method of matched asymptotic expansions for both shallow and de

Bed connected support structures such as monopiles are expected to be impractical for water depths greater than 30 m and so there is increasing interest in alternative structure concepts to enable cost-effective deployment of wind and tidal stream turbines.

This thesis investigates the dynamic response of such floating structures, taking into account the coupling between loading due to both turbulent flow and waves and the dynamic response of the system.

Abstract:
La fonction principale des systèmes d'ancrage des éoliennes offshore flottantes est de limiter les mouvements du support. Les lignes d'ancrage qui les composent sont typiquement constituées de chaînes, de câbles aciers, de câbles synthétiques ou d'une combinaison de ces composants.Dans cette thèse, on se concentre sur les câbles en acier qui permettent de réduire le poids et d'augmenter la résistance en tension par rapport aux chaînes. Leur dimensionnement dépend des chargements en tension et flexion, liés aux mouvements du flotteur sous l'action de la mer et du vent.L'objectif de la thèse est

Abstract:
Large single crystals of brownmillerites in the Sr2(Fe,Co,Al)2O5 and Ca2(Fe,Co,Al)2O5 compositional triangles were grown using the floating-zone (FZ) method. A commensurate modulation with Pbma symmetry was identified in Sr2FeCoO5 for the first time and confirmed in Sr2Fe2O5 and Ca2FeCoO5, while Ca2FeAlO5 and Ca2(Fe0.95Zn0.05)2O5 adopted different unmodulated structures at room temperature, in agreement with previous reports. The Pbma phases persisted to very high temperatures (≤750 °C) in all cases, indicating negligible thermal disordering of the chain orientations. Electron diffraction imag

Abstract:
The hydrodynamic pressures acting on a floating guardwall can be considered to be a fluid-structure interaction problem. In this research, the fluid-structure system is decoupled assuming that the effects of the structural response on the fluid load pattern are negligible. Therefore, initially, the effects of the flow and pressure distribution, due to the presence of the structure, were computed and then used as boundary conditions for the structural analysis of the guardwall. The deformation of the guardwall was then used to recompute the fluid loads. Because the fluid loading did not change
