Offshore structures are exposed to random wave loading in the ocean environment and hence the probability distribution of the extreme values of their response to wave loading is of great value in the design of these structures. Wave loading on slender members of bottom-supported jacket or jack-up structures is frequently calculated by Morison’s equation. Due to nonlinearity of the drag component of...
Finite-memory nonlinear systems (FMNS) are extensively used in establishing a simple relationship between the output and input of complicated nonlinear systems. In Part I of this paper, it was shown how the response of an offshore structure exposed to (random) Morison wave loading can be approximated by the response of an equivalent finite-memory nonlinear system. The approximate FMNS models can then...
