Fatigue and Fracture Mechanics of Offshore Structures

[Image: 58451412374081076045.jpg]

[Image: info.png]
Author: Linus S. Etube
Edition: illustrated
Publisher: Professional Engineering, 2001
Original from the University of Michigan
Digitized: Nov 29, 2007
ISBN: 1860583121, 9781860583124
Length: 164 pages
Pdf: 10.0 mB
Pdf Quality Condition: 9 points (over 10)

The tubular welded joints used in the construction of offshore structures can experience millions of variable amplitude load cycles during their service life. Such fatigue loading represents a main cause of degradation in these structures. As a result, fatigue is an important consideration in their design. Fatigue and Fracture Mechanisms of Offshore Structures present novel research and the results of wave-induced stress on the operational life of offshore structures.
Containing results of an investigation undertaken to assess the fatigue and fracture performance of steels used in the offshore industry, Fatigue and Fracture Mechanics of Offshore Structures includes,

•Stress analysis of tubular joints
•Fatigue design
•Fatigue loading in Jackup structures
•Jack-up dynamic response
•Modelling of wave loading
•Test specimen considerations
•The stress intensity factor concept
•Variable amplitude crack growth models
•Consideration of sequence effects
•Sea state probability model

The important research in this book will be of interest to those dealing with a wide range of engineering structures - from bridges and buildings to masts and pipelines, as well as fatigue and fracture specialists, and those concerned with materials technology.

  Demand in using "Performance Based Design"
Posted by: Batman07 - 03-04-2011, 07:30 AM - Forum: Free Discussion - Replies (2)

Dear all,

I believe that performance based design are widely used in most countries. Here in my country, there is only one structure I know that was designed using that kind of approach because still static and dynamic analysis are the most common in here.

This advancement of structural design approach really challenges the capability of all structural engineers. I must admit that I don't have an experience yet in using this kind of approach but somehow I have a little idea of this procedure. May I know how often you use performance based design in your country?

Code for Sustainable Homes

Size: 3.44 MB | Format: PDF | Publisher: Department for Communities and Local Government | Year: 2010 | pages: 292 | ISBN: 9781859463314

The Code for Sustainable Homes (the Code) is an environmental assessment method for rating and certifying the performance of new homes. It is a national standard for use in the design and construction of new homes with a view to encouraging continuous improvement in sustainable home building. It was launched in December 2006 with the publication of Code for Sustainable Homes: A step-change in sustainable home building practice (Communities and Local Government, 2006) and became operational in April 2007. Where Building Regulations apply, compliance is necessary at all times. The implementation of the Code is managed by BRE Global (formerly BRE Certification Ltd) under contract to Communities and Local Government under arrangements based on the EcoHomes© operating systems. BRE Global is the main licence holder. Under the terms of its agreement with Communities and Local Government, BRE Global issues licences to both assessors and other Code service providers. BRE Global provides training, licensing and registration of Code assessors to standards ISO 17024 and EN 45011, within a UKAS accredited ‘competent person’s certification scheme’. Code service providers are licensed organisations offering all or part of the range of Code services, including assessor training; registration and monitoring; quality assurance of assessments; certification; investigation and resolution of complaints; and maintenance of records (BRE Global, 2007). At the time of publishing, Stroma Certification Ltd and Robust Details Limited are the other organisations licensed to provide Code services.

The Code for Sustainable Homes covers nine categories of sustainable design:
• Energy and CO2 Emissions
• Water
• Materials
• Surface Water Run-off
• Waste
• Pollution
• Heath and Well-being
• Management
• Ecology.

  Offshore Soil Mechanics, Arnold Verruijt

Offshore Soil Mechanics, Arnold Verruijt

Author: Arnold Verruijt | Size: 0.8 MB | Format: PDF | Publisher: Delft UT | Year: 2005 | pages: 204

[Image: 00836459477560325572.jpg]


[Image: info.png]

PREFACE
This book was written as class notes for the course on ”Offshore Soil Mechanics” of the Department of Civil Engineering of the Delft University of Technology, as given until 2002. In the latest version, which is published on the internet, the format of the pages has been changed to the landscape shape, some figures have been improved by adding color, and multi-line formulas have been reduced to a single line, profiting from the wider page format. Also two chapters (on consolidation and waves in piles) have been copied from the Soil Dynamics book. Some additional material may be included later. For many problems elementary computer programs are given, in Turbo Pascal. These programs may be used, copied and distributed without restriction. No responsibility for any loss or damage resulting from use of these programs is accepted, however. Some more advanced programs can be downloaded from the author’s website.

This is the screen version of the book SOIL MECHANICS, an elementary textbook for students of civil engineering.

PREFACE
This book is the text for the introductory course of Soil Mechanics in the Department of Civil Engineering of the Delft University of Technology, as I have given from 1980 until my retirement in 2002. It contains an introduction into the major principles and methods of soil mechanics, such as the analysis of stresses, deformations, and stability. The most important methods of determining soil parameters, in the laboratory and in situ, are also described. Some basic principles of applied mechanics that are frequently used are presented in Appendices. The subdivision into chapters is such that one chapter can be treated in a single lecture, approximately. Comments of students and other users on the material in earlier versions of this book have been implemented in the present version, and errors have been corrected. Remaining errors are the author’s responsibility, of course, and all comments will be appreciated. An important contribution to the production of the printed edition, and to this screen edition, has been the typesetting program TEX, by Donald Knuth, in the LATEXimplementation by Leslie Lamport. Most of the figures have been constructed in LATEX, using the PICTEXmacros. The logo was produced by Professor G. de Josselin de Jong, who played an important role in developing soil mechanics as a branch of science, and who taught me soil mechanics. Since 2001 the English version of this book has been made available on the internet, on the website <http://geo.verruijt.net>. Several users, from all over the world, have been kind enough to send me their comments or their suggestions for corrections or improvements. In recent versions of the screenbook it has also been attempted to incorporate the figures better into the text, using the macro wrapfigure, and colors. In this way the appearance of many pages seems to have been improved. Upon the suggestion of Prof. Emmanuel Detournay of the University of Minnesota, the problems at the end of chapters have been supplemented in the 2010 version by worked examples, as a further aid to students. Additional sets of exercises and problems are available in the file SoilMex.ZIP.

Fire In Tunnels - Technical Report – Part 1 Design Fire Scenarios

Size: 1.93 MB | Format: PDF | Publisher: WTCB | Year: 2007 | pages: 161

[Image: 43835038827372262923.jpg]


[Image: info.png]

This is the final report of Work Package 2 of the European FIT (Fire in Tunnels) project devoted to design fire scenarios for road and rail tunnels. It collects data from different countries (e.g. Germany, France, Italy, UK), international organisations (e.g. PIARC, ITA, UPTUN) as well as from the experiences in individual tunnels (e.g. Mont Blanc, Tauern, Nihonzaka, Caldecott, Pfänder). The report includes basic principles of design fires, tunnel fire statistics and impacts of fires / smoke in tunnels on people, equipment and structure. The data is analysed and different sets of data are compared to ascertain the degree of confidence attributed to the information. Recommendations are made within the text on specific issues when this was deemed appropriate and reliable.
