Transient effects of tendon disconnection on the survivability of a TLP in moderate-strength hurricane conditions

Transient effects of tendon disconnection on the survivability of a TLP in moderate-strength hurricane conditions

The primary objective of this paper is to investigate the dynamic stability and survivability of a four-column classic TLP (tension-leg platform) under less-than-extreme storm conditions where one or more tendons have been lost due to damage or disconnect. The transient responses of the platform and...
