Parametric optimization of FPSO hull dimensions for Brazil field using sophisticated stability and hydrodynamic calculations
In this study, hull dimensions of an FPSO were optimized to maximize its operability at Brazil field. In contrast with the previous works which have used simplified models to evaluate some indicators related to stability and hydrodynamic performances of FPSOs for its own optimal design, we developed...
