Effect of marine growth on offshore structure /

Marine grwoth is commonly found on the surface of offshore structural members especially in the splash zone. Marine growth can increase the frontal area of structurak members hence increasing drag force; incarease the structural volumetric displacement which increase the inertia force; and increase...

description Marine grwoth is commonly found on the surface of offshore structural members especially in the splash zone. Marine growth can increase the frontal area of structurak members hence increasing drag force; incarease the structural volumetric displacement which increase the inertia force; and increase structural mass, and thus enhancing the structural dynamic response and static stress. In this project, the COSMOS/M software available in the Structures and Materials Laboratory, FKA, will be used to study the structural response of a six-legged jacket platform due to the effect of marine growth in the Malaysian water. An increment of 75% in wave loading and 31% in nodal displacement was found when the marine growths accumulated on the model displacement was found when the marine growths accumulated on eht model reached the maximum thickness of 200 mm. The great increment in the fluid loading indicates that marine growth is amongst the important design criterion for offshore structures.
