Omae 1999 : Proceedings of the 18th Int'l Conference on Offshore Mechanics & Arctic Engineering Volume 2

Proceedings from the July 1999 conference -- the second OMAE conference held in Canada.

This volume contains 40 papers arranged in sections on risk and reliability analysis, probabilistic modelling of waves and responses, fatigue reliability and inspections, and reliability of offshore structures.

Topics include a structures method and software to assess human and organizational errors in the life- cycle of offshore structures; QRA and risk-based design; methods for evaluating fires and explorations of offshore and onshore upstream production systems; steep transient wave events; reliability based assessment of offshore concrete structures subject to chloride ingress; ship capsize risk in a seaway using time domain simulations and fitted Gumbel distributions; analysis of casualty of MS Nakhodka; statistical and theoretical analysis of ship grounding accidents; and reliability criteria for design and requalification of pipelines and risers in the Bay of Campeche, Mexico.
