Numerical evaluation of energy absorption in ship-offshore fixed platform collisions

Both the maritime traffic and the number of built offshore platforms have been continuously increasing over recent times. Among the structures built offshore, the fixed type constitutes the majority. The consequent diversity of plausible collision scenarios involving offshore platforms and passing s...
