LFCS Review report – Structure and mooring response - OC2018 A-073-WP3/WP4

Abstract

A review is performed on structural and mooring response analysis work in relation to Large Floating Coastal Structures and the planning of long floating bridges across fjords. The review contains observations on global response methodology, environmental loading and interactions, mooring design, measurements and validation, and finally design criteria and limit states. The basis for the review is mentioned but described in detail in the LFCS Introduction and Summary report (OC2018 F-073-WP0). Tables of identified gaps are presented along with recommendations for further work.
