... ABSTRACT X-joints and joints on the launch-legs are usually reinforced using thicker can section, internal ring stiffeners or external plate gussets to increase the load carrying capacity and to circumvent fabrication limits. In this paper, an alternative stiffening arrangement for a uniplanar...

... Improvement in static and fatigue performance of offshore tubular joints is often achieved by stiffening the chord wall at the joint using internal ring stiffeners. This has been attributed mainly to the lessening of stress concentration and an even distribution of stresses around the joint...

... cylindrical shell with ring stiffeners, stress and deformation behaviour is analysed by variation of the significant influencing parameters such as horizontal bedding, change in the form of the bedding and foundation, and wheel loads from construction vehicles during filling. Finally, recommendations...
