Among compliant platforms, the tension leg platform (TLP) is a hybrid structure. With respect
to the horizontal degrees of freedom, it is compliant and behaves like to a floating structure …

1. 1 Introduction As offshore oil production moves into deeper water, compliant structural
systems are becoming increasingly important. Examples of this type of structure are tension …

The coupled response of a tension leg platform (TLP) for random waves characterized by a
long crested sea spectrum is investigated. The response analysis is based on simulation …

A robust stochastic design framework is discussed for design of mass dampers. The focus is
on applications for the mitigation of the coupled heave and pitch response of Tension Leg …

Compliant offshore structures are used for oil exploitation in deep water. Tension leg
platform (TLP) is a suitable type for very deep water. The nonlinear dynamic response of …

During their operation life-cycle, tension leg platforms (TLPs) may experience, under wave
and wind loading, response amplitudes that affect their operational and structural reliability …

A simple single-degree-of-freedom model of a tension leg platform is used to assess the
reliability of the common practice of calculating wave-induced forces at the undisplaced …

The knowledge about a planned system in engineering design applications is never
complete. Often, a probabilistic quantification of the uncertainty arising from this missing …

Dynamic performance of a tension leg platform (TLP) is analyzed using a robotic
manipulator approach. The TLP is vertically anchored to the seabed by twelve mooring …

Abstract: In this paper, two analysis models for tension leg platform (TLP) are proposed
based on different simulation methods of the tendons for studying the TLP motion responses …
