This proceedings contains the papers presented at The 8th International Symposium on Practical Design of Ships and Other Floating Structures held in China in September 2001 - the first PRADS of the 21st Century. The overall aim of PRADS symposia is to advance the design of ships and other floating structures as a professional discipline and science by exchanging knowledge and promoting discussion of relevant topics in the fields of naval architecture and marine and offshore engineering. In line with the aim, in welcoming the new era, this Symposium is intended to increase international co-operation and give a momentum for the new development of design and production technology of ships and other floating structures for efficiency, economy, safety, and environmental production. The main themes of this Symposium are Design Synthesis, Production, Hydrodynamics, Structures and Materials of Ships and Floating Systems. Proposals for over 270 papers from 26 countries and regions within the themes were received for PRADS 2001, and about 170 papers were accepted for presentation at the symposium. With the high quality of the proposed papers the Local Organising Committee had a difficult task to make a balanced selection and to control the total number of papers for fitting into the allocated time schedule approved by the Standing Committee of PRADS. Volume I covers design synthesis, production and part of hydrodynamics. Volume II contains the rest of hydrodynamics, and structures and materials.

Offshore Engineering continues to develop and expand rapidly. While in the public eye its focus has shifted towards subsea and floating developments in ever deeper waters, bottom founded structures are still at the industry’s heart. The fixed structure remains its dependable workhorse and even today newly installed fixed structures far outnumber subsea and floating applications. Additionally, the knowledge and technology that have (literally) pushed the boundaries of Offshore Engineering into ever more demanding environments and water depths have been largely pioneered by bottom founded structures. An engineer’s central skill is to develop coherent and balanced models for the problems encountered. Regrettably, due to availability of ever more sophisticated computer applications this expertise is at risk of getting lost, and adopting computer outcomes without truly understanding the models and their limitations is naive, risky and unprofessional. Therefore, every engineer needs fundamental knowledge and understanding of underlying theories and technologies. This Handbook is intended to help offshore engineers acquire and sustain relevant expertise in some notoriously difficult subjects. It attempts to stimulate reflection and critical evaluation of the models used and the strengths and weaknesses of the solutions found. While dealing more specifically with bottom founded structures, the material is generally applicable to offshore structures of all types. The Handbook can be used as a textbook for Master’s students and as a manual and reference guide for practising professionals.

The concept of multi-purpose marine structures is particularly promising in this era, especially for revolutionizing traditional ocean engineering practices. However, fundamental concepts, hydrodynamic methods, and design criteria differ significantly from those of traditional marine structures. Therefore, providing insights into the hydrodynamic analysis of these novel structures is crucial for advancing coastal and offshore engineering. This book offers a comprehensive introduction of the hydrodynamics of multi-purpose coastal and offshore structures, targeting engineers and researchers in field of coastal and offshore engineering. Its main topics include an overview of multi-purpose marine structures, the formulation of hydrodynamic models, and the performance evaluation frameworks tailored for these structures. This book provides solutions for evaluating the performance of multi-purpose marine structures and designing such structures. Through the introduction of advanced hydrodynamic methods and detailed case studies, readers gain valuable insights into the design process, utilizing advanced techniques and the latest research findings. Overall, this book serves as a valuable resource for professionals aiming to navigate the fundamentals involved in the design, analysis, and performance evaluation of multi-purpose marine structures.

This is the second part of the translation of the original German text Meerestechnische Konstruktionen which was published by Springer-Verlag in 1988. The translated material is a reviewed and updated version of the German text. Wheras the first volume concentrates on general and external factors, this one focuses on factors affecting the design and analysis of offshore structures themselves. In an effort to address a wide audience the topic is presented in a general context. Therefore it introduces students and practising engineers to the field of marine technology and, at the same time, serves as a reference book for experts. Finally it gives specialists in related fields an idea of where their work on individual problems of offshore structures stands in relation to the field as a whole. Offshore Structures, Vol. 2 is based on the authors' lectures and design practice in offshore structures and their components. It assists the reader in developing practical solutions by introducing a large number of examples and reference is made to further specialised literature.

This book provides essential knowledge and techniques required to assess materials for extending the life of ageing offshore structures used for energy production. With over half of these structures currently in a life extension phase, the effects of ageing and degradation are at the forefront of the industry. The book presents the changes in industry practices and key technological advancements that have shaped the field since its inception. It reviews the original properties of the materials employed in offshore structures and provides a deep understanding of their behaviour as they age over time. The relevant degradation processes are investigated for offshore structural materials such as steel, welds, bolted joints, concrete, grout, reinforcement, pre-tensioning and non-metallic materials (including coatings and composites). Materials engineers will be equipped with the necessary tools in this book to evaluate materials in existing ageing structures. The book goes beyond theoretical knowledge, providing practical insights into assessing the performance of materials in ageing structures. With a focus on ensuring the efficient and safe continued use of existing infrastructure, engineers will find useful guidance to inform decision-making and facilitate the assessment process. The book brings together a wide range of research findings relevant to the topic and offers an updated summary of material assessment techniques that are largely difficult or even impossible to access publicly. This book is an invaluable resource for practising materials engineers, offshore engineering professionals, or materials engineering students.
