Description
This course covers ultimate strength and progressive collapse analysis of steel space frame structures using Usfos. Focus is put on plastic limit state analysis of jackets subjected to accidental loads (ship collision, dropped objects, fire and explosion) and extreme environmental loads (wave, wind and current).
Learning objectives
Learn how to import models created by GeniE into Usfos and add non-linear data necessary to perform progressive collapse analysis. The participant will also learn how to present and understand the results. The exercise is based on a jacket.
Target group
Structural engineers performing ultimate strength, accidental and life time extension analysis of jackets.
| Prerequisite It is required that the participants have attended SE-01 Concept based FE modelling and analysis using GeniE - Introductory and SE-09 Jacket design or have similar experience. The participants should also have basic knowledge in non-linear structural analysis. |
