... to the hull as a combination of a vertical couple (i.e., differential chord load on the pinions) and a horizontal couple (i.e., upper and lower guide loads). The magnitude of the loads for a given amount of jacking on a given leg is a function of the leg's effective stiffness, which varies with water depth...

... and induced stresses at the brace to hull connection. To handle the high bending moment, the brace wall thickness must be increased, which results in a stiffer connection. Because the racking deflection is controlled by the deck box, and not the stiffness of the braces, the magnitude of this deflection...

...). It is, therefore, the objective of this paper to illustrate the relationship of DSV and impact load, while answering the question as to whether or not this relationship is independent of oscillation amplitude or wave period. For simplicity, the analyses focus on a single water depth, soil stiffness and direction...

... is generally less reliable and model testing has become an important and widely accepted design tool to derive reliable sea fastening loads for tie down designs. However, tie down stiffness in prototype-scale is very difficult to model and scale properly in model tests. The measured results cannot be directly...
