Hydrodynamics and hydro-structure
Technical Bulletin 2009

Summary

The eleven papers in this section are proof of Bureau Veritas’ world leading knowledge in these key areas. The papers bring new understanding of coupling, sloshing and elasticity of floating units. The interaction between elastic structures and non-uniform forces in fluids is examined and practical aspects such as installation of a large subsea package are covered.
