A Structural System Reliability Analysis of Jacket Using an Improved Truss Model

by Y. -L. Wu, Norwegian Inst of Technology, Norway,

Document Type: Proceeding Paper

Part of: Structural Safety and Reliability

Abstract:

An improved truss model for structural system reliability analysis of jacket structures is presented. The efficiency of the model makes it possible to carry out a large amount of ultimate strength analyses for reliability assessments of an eight-legged jacket platform. Both the failure tree approach as well as a Monte Carlo simulation technique are applied.
