Parametric studies of tension leg platform with large amplitude motions

Tension leg platform (TLP) is an important kind of working station for deep water exploration and development in ocean, whose dynamic responses deserve a serious thought. It is shown that for severe sea state, the effects of nonlinearities induced by large displacements of TLP may be noteworthy, and then employment of small displacements model should be restrained. In such situation, large amplitude motion model may be an appropriate alternative. The numerical experiments are performed to study the differences of dynamic responses between the two models. It is shown that for most cases, differences between results of the two models are significant. The variances of the differences vs. the wave period are the most remarkable, and that of the differences vs. wave heading angle are also apparent.

College Ystrad Mynach Janet Certificate Service

The College previously used the old Server Certificate Service and has now progressed to using the Janet Certificate Service. It has two particular uses for server certificates: one is to guarantee its Shibboleth  erver and the other is to guarantee another single sign on document management system employed by the College.
