The course will give the participants a broad overview of the essential elements involved in riser design. The topics covered include, among others:
- Characteristic response properties of risers and umbilicals
- Governing equations
- Static and dynamic behaviour, with emphasis on non-linearities
- Numerical solution schemes for assessment of global response
- Load modelling in global response analyses
- Principles for assessment of extreme load effects
- Introduction to key elements of DNV-OS-F201 and associated Recommended Practices.
- DNV-RP-F203 Riser Interference (new)
- DNV-RP-F204 Riser Fatigue
