... to be produced. Design analysis has been developed using 3D local and 2D global finite element analysis which interface with industry standards and methods. The first full scale machine has produced sections of 12inch diameter pipe which have been physically tested using liquid and gas tests (including hydrogen...

... to capture the load staging effect along with the load redistribution when the structural components reach the non-linear stress-strain range (first yield) in LRFD approach. Adopting the detailed finite element analysis not only addresses the issue of stage loading but also mitigates the other limitations...

...) and when the change of the analyzed stress values through thickness direction can be neglected. Abstract In this study, a detailed finite element analysis methodology of a 180 m deck cargo/launch barge B42 for 32,000 MT topside load is described and results are presented. Using Finite Element Method...
