Floating Structures - A Guide for Design and Analysis vol 2







Description

Here it is, the first comprehensive reference guide that brings together the complex analytical techniques and detail design approaches necessary for every type of floating structure from FPSOs to innovative spars and TLP’s. This sensational reference consists of 1,200 pages spread over two volumes.



The Floating Structures guide was developed with 32 international sponsors and 22 authors from seven major companies. This highly complex project is valued at over $680,000! Now you can reap the rewards of years of hard work and learn from the best in the industry.



* Floating production types and their suitability for different types of field applications

* The worldwide ocean environment with comprehensive weather parameter data

* Hydrodynamics and dynamics, wave frequency, slowly varying high frequency and impulsive wave loads and responses
