A Comparative Study on Damaged Behavior of Offshore Jacket Structures

Year 2022, Issue: 15, 47 - 56, 22.06.2022

Abstract

In this study, the damage behaviour of the offshore jacket structures under environmental loads has been investigated. K-type and inverted K-type jacket structures have been used in order to compare the damage behaviours. A total of four structures such as one K-type, one inverted K-type and two damaged types of each one are modelled. Damage modelling has been performed in the form of a rupture in a leg. The examined models have 60 m height, three stories, cylindrical elements and they are angled-four-legged structures fixed to the seabed. Structures are affected by environmental forces including wind and wave effects as well as operational loads. The Eurocode velocity profile and the linear wave velocity profile have been used to calculate wind and wave forces, respectively. Abaqus finite elements software is utilized in the analyses. The force-displacement transfer between the structure and the marine environment has been performed by bidirectional fluid-structure interaction (FSI) analyses. In the bidirectional interaction analysis, modelling has been generated by CEL technique that is the combination of Eulerian-Lagrangian procedures. In this technique, the marine environment and the structure are created by Eularian and Lagrangian approaches respectively. In structural analysis, modal behaviours, frequencies, displacement and stress distributions for damaged and undamaged models have been obtained. The changes in the behaviour of different types of jacket structures have been investigated in the end.
