Nonlinear dynamic analysis of offshore structures

In this thesis consideration is given to a selection of nonlinear dynamic problems in the field of offshore engineering. Hydrodynamic loading on fixed horizontal and vertical tubular members and the dynamic response of articulated towers together with the distribution of shear force and bending mome...
