Seismic Response Analysis of Very Large Floating Structure and Dolphin System

Takeshi Koike, Takashi Hiromoto, Chiaki Sato
Synopsis:
Seismic response and risk analyses of a super floating structure supported with many dolphins are carried out to study the mutual interaction and the susceptibility of the floating-dolphin system to strong earthquake ground motion. The conventional reliability approach is applied to evaluate the structural safety in various seismic environments. The discussion also focuses on the risk of a progressive failure which might be triggered by increasing damaged dolphins.
