      • Response of triceratops to impact forces: numerical investigations

        Chandrasekaran, Srinivasan,Nagavinothini, R. Techno-Press 2019 Ocean systems engineering Vol.9 No.4

        Triceratops is one of the new generations of offshore compliant platforms suitable for ultra-deepwater applications. Apart from environmental loads, the offshore structures are also susceptible to accidental loads. Due to the increase in the risk of collision between ships and offshore platforms, the accurate prediction of structural response under impact loads becomes necessary. This paper presents the numerical investigations of the impact response of the buoyant leg of triceratops usually designed as an orthogonally stiffened cylindrical shell with stringers and ring frames. The impact analysis of buoyant leg with a rectangularly shaped indenter is carried out using ANSYS explicit analysis solver under different impact load cases. The results show that the shell deformation increases with the increase in impact load, and the ring stiffeners hinder the shell damage from spreading in the longitudinal direction. The response of triceratops is then obtained through hydrodynamic response analysis carried out using ANSYS AQWA. From the results, it is observed that the impact load on single buoyant leg causes periodic vibration in the deck in the surge and pitch degrees of freedom. Since the impact response of the structure is highly affected by the geometric and material properties, numerical studies are also carried out by varying the strain rate, and the location of the indenter and the results are discussed.

        Offshore Triceratops Under Impact Forces in Ultra Deep Arctic Waters

        Srinivasan Chandrasekaran,R. Nagavinothini 한국강구조학회 2020 International Journal of Steel Structures Vol.20 No.2

        In the recent years, offshore oil drilling and production is moving towards ultra-deep Arctic region which demands an adaptable structural form. Apart from the environmental loads, offshore structures in Arctic region will also be subjected to impact forces arising due to ship platform collision. Such loads may endanger the safety of the platform due to the combined effect of reduced temperature and impact forces on the material and geometric properties of the structure. Thus, there is a need to understand the behaviour of offshore structures under impact forces in low-temperature conditions. Offshore Triceratops is one of the recent new-generation compliant platforms proved to be suitable for ultra-deepwater applications. The main aim of this study is to assess the response of triceratops under impact forces in Arctic environment numerically. As the buoyant legs of triceratops are susceptible to impact forces arising from ship platform collision, the numerical model of a buoyant leg is developed using Ansys explicit dynamics solver. The impact analyses is then carried out with rectangular box-shaped indenter representing the stem of a ship, under both ambient conditions and Arctic temperature (− 60 °C) and the local response of the platform is studied through force deformation curves and stress contours. In order to study the global response of the platform, the numerical model of triceratops is developed in Ansys Aqwa solver and analysed under the action of impact load time history obtained from explicit analysis of buoyant leg. The impact load on the buoyant leg resulted in the continuous periodic vibration of the platform. Furthermore, parametric studies were also carried out to investigate the effect of indenter velocity, size, and location on the impact response of triceratops under Arctic temperature, and the results are discussed.
