Marine Structural Design (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Marine Structural Design, Second Edition, is a wide-ranging, practical guide to marine structural analysis and design, describing in detail the application of modern structural engineering principles to marine and offshore structures.

Organized in five parts, the book covers basic structural design principles, strength, fatigue and fracture, and reliability and risk assessment, providing all the knowledge needed for limit-state design and re-assessment of existing structures.

Updates to this edition include new chapters on structural health monitoring and risk-based decision-making, arctic marine structural development, and the addition of new LNG ship topics, including composite materials and structures, uncertainty analysis, and green ship concepts.

• Provides the structural design principles, background theory, and know-how needed for marine and offshore structural design by analysis
• Covers strength, fatigue and fracture, reliability, and risk assessment together in one resource, emphasizing practical considerations and applications
• Updates to this edition include new chapters on structural health monitoring and risk-based decision making, and new content on arctic marine structural design

Autorenporträt

Dr. Yong Bai holds the position of Chair Professor at Zhejiang University (China) and is also an academician at the Norwegian Academy of Technical Sciences. He is a fellow of the US Society of Naval Architects and Marine Engineers and the UK Royal Institution of Naval Architects. With an extensive background in offshore engineering structures and pipelines, Prof. Bai has held professorships at renowned universities, significantly contributing to the global offshore oil and gas industry through his publications and innovative achievements.Fellow of the Institute of Civil Engineers (ICE) and an honorary professor in Queen's University, UK. His research interest includes structural reliability, durability of reinforced concrete structure, health monitoring of concrete structures, and fundamental theories of concrete structures and their applications. He founded the group on Durability of Concrete Structures in 1995 at Zhejiang University, which carries out research on the durability problems regarding environments, materials, concrete components and structures. He has been awarded 20 research grants by the Chinese government and has published more than 200 articles, co-authored 9 monographs. He also won 3 National Awards for Science and Technology Progress and 5 Science & Technology Awards of Zhejiang Province. Prof. Jin previously held research fellowships from the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation and the Norwegian Council of Research.
