Explore offshore structure design using SACS software through a practical, multi-module approach, covering stability, lifting, fatigue and dynamic analysis, construction, and maintenance with real case studies.
Execute dynamic analysis to identify natural frequencies and eigenvalues with eigenvectors, using mass modelling for fatigue and seismic analysis while considering nonlinear soil-structure interaction and amplification factors.
Transform a dynamic platform model into fatigue and seismic analysis by configuring run properties, joint definitions, and line modes, then extract eigenvalues and eigenvectors to evaluate mode shapes.
Apply spectral transfer function and dynamic analysis to quantify fatigue damage in offshore platforms, considering wind, wave frequency, stress ranges, and joint fatigue for long-term reliability.
Explore advanced SACS fatigue analysis by defining central damage, applying dynamic amplification and spectrum data, and evaluating joints, welding details, and safety factors for fatigue life.
Explore advanced fatigue analysis part 2 by examining dynamic and eigen dynamic analysis, loads, natural frequencies, transfer functions, and fatigue assessment across directions.
Explore spectral fatigue concepts in design, define fatigue and surface life, analyze joint stresses and factor of safety, and assess uncertainty and code compliance in a 20-year design life.
Calculate wave spectra for fatigue analysis by applying external fatigue, converting wave heights and steepness into spectral frequencies, and compiling 100 waves in Excel.
This course is part of SACS software course. This course is start by module I and module II that cover all the basic features about sacs software and how you can use it by knowing the SACS tools. The objective of this advanced course is to apply sacs in a real projects and presents the calculation report and how to use SACS ina specific project to have a complete project in your hand as a reference.
This course present the dynamic analysis and fatigue analysis as well and present the calculation reports for all the offshore structure analysis that are required during implementation of the project. So the inplace, dynamic, fatigue analysis will be illustrated in detail in addition to the launching, upending, towing, sea fastening , load out and lifting analysis will be discuss in detail by applying SACS software. The on bottom stability will be discussed and presented as well.
For this part of advanced SACS software module III this part 2 will focus on presenting the offshore structure dynamic analysis calculation and fatigue analysis for the offshore structure and the way to read the output data. The dynamic analysis requirement in fatigue and seismic analysis and DAF calculation.
