Static Analysis (+3)

Static Analysis

  • Purpose: Establish equilibrium position under static loads (gravity, current, pretension)
  • OrcaFlex: CalculateStatics()
  • Outputs: Static position, static tensions, static bending moments
  • Convergence criteria: max residual force < 1e-3 kN

Dynamic Analysis

  • Purpose: Time-domain simulation under wave + current
  • OrcaFlex: RunSimulation(), stage duration, ramp time
  • Minimum ramp: 1× Tp to settle hydrodynamic transients
  • Minimum simulation duration: 3 hours (10,800 s) for statistical convergence
  • Output extraction: Every 0.1–0.2 s (Nyquist for 5×Tp minimum)

Modal Analysis

  • Purpose: Natural frequencies and mode shapes (VIV susceptibility)
  • Key output: Fundamental period T1 [s] vs. wave/vortex shedding period
  • Strouhal criterion: f_vs = St × U / D where St ≈ 0.2 (subcritical)
  • Flag if |T1 - T_wave| / T_wave < 0.10 (resonance proximity)

Fatigue Analysis

  • Purpose: Accumulated damage over service life
  • Method: Time-domain rainflow counting OR frequency-domain spectral
  • S-N curve: DNV-OS-F101 D-curve for girth welds
  • SCF: DNVGL-RP-C203 hot spot or notch stress
  • Target: D < 1.0 (design life ≥ 20 yr with factor of 10)
