Sentence examples for topside structure from inspiring English sources

This study investigates the behaviour of a typical offshore topside structure subjected to blast loading caused by hydrocarbon explosions.

Nevertheless, existing procedures of fire risk analysis (FRA) are still not comprehensive enough to systematically evaluate the risks to topside structure safety.

In the detailed design stage, there is a routine FRA procedure that is conducted to probabilistically determine the safety of the topside structure.

This paper presents a performance based design philosophy for a typical topside structure which has the merit of being informative to the client and to regulators.

Meanwhile, a large amount of Computational Fluid Dynamic CFDD) calculation time is required due to its super-large size and highly complicated topside structures.

By examining three profiles of varying depth (deep, intermediate and shallow) commonly used in offshore topside structures, the criteria governing their behaviour are highlighted.

In the context of offshore installations, particularly for topside structures where safety cannot be compromised, this will lead to an economical design as well as meeting the functionality of a system from pre to post explosion regimes.

Explosion risk analysis (ERA) is known as one of the dedicated safety studies for offshore installations and its purpose is to evaluate the explosion design accidental loads (DALs) on offshore topside structures and facilities.

Accidents on offshore oil and gas platforms (OOGPs) usually cause serious fatalities and financial losses considering the demanding environment where such platforms are located and the complicated topsides structure that the platforms have.

The objective of this paper was to introduce more advanced and practical procedures for fire load application methods considering the effects of Passive fire protection (PFP) with the motivation to nonlinear structural consequence analysis of FPSO topsides structures under fire load.

A simplified analytical model for deck plates of offshore topsides structures is proposed.
