Leg-seabed interactions of jack-up vessels due to motions in irregular waves
This paper analyzes the leg-seabed interaction due to motions of a 3rd generation jack-up vessel in irregular waves. The proposed model considers hydrodynamic forces on the hull as well as on the legs. The sea floor reaction forces are analyzed with a Coupled Eulerian-Lagrangian (CEL) method. The re...
