Learning Outcomes

ILO 1 Appraise the commercial, technical, environmental and social factors that influence the design of floating structures

ILO 2 Proficiently use applicable analysis techniques and relevant design codes to determine the optimum configuration and main dimensions of a floating structure taking into considerations the factors in point 1 above

ILO 3 Analyse the global performance of floating structures and evaluate the optimum mooring configuration

ILO 4 Develop numerical models and scale model tests to evaluate the hydrodynamic characteristic and performance of a floating offshore structure
