| Description |
This is
a Joint Industry Project (JIP). To establish a guideline for engineers using
non-linear analysis methods in documentation of ultimate limit states for
offshore structures. This will be done by establishing procedures suitable
for the practicing engineer; showing that non-linear analysis methods will
give reliable predictions of ultimate capacity fore offshore structures;
establishing requirements of the non-linear analysis software. The guideline
will cover all aspects from the requirements of software through modeling if
loads and geometry to reporting of details. |
| Progress |
The project has been completed. A copy of the
final report has been distributed to the participants. |
