Three-dimensional modelling of offshore jack-up structures: An experimentally based research strategy
When a mobile jack-up drilling rig is installed at a new offshore location, a site-specific assessment of the suitability of the unit must be performed. These assessments typically use two-dimensional plane frame analyses by assuming a symmetric rig and loading along the 'axis of symmetry'...
