Abstract

Abstract : This paper focuses on the analysis of hydrodynamic loads on fixed offshore structures (horizontal cylinder) that are operating in shallow water and are often subjected to huge wave loading. For the purpose of this study, linear (Airy) wave theory was adopted together with the application of (21) in the load computation. The loads for six different sea states were computed using spread sheet for the following values of time t = 0, T/4, T/2.
