Description
Summary:Corrosion damaged has been identified as the most degrading mechanism in steel structure especially when exposed to sea environment while blast pressure is the one that generates most impacts among the extreme loadings conditions. Even though records mentioned that explosion accidental events only occurred at low frequency, but the damage involve major fatalities to personnel and structural elements. Lots of past research revolved around the effects of blast loads on offshore structure as realizing the significant of the effects blast loads produced. However the effects of blast loads on the dynamic behaviour of corroded offshore structure has not been studied before and therefore, this study is conducted. Parametric study is carried out where corroded offshore structure is represented by steel plates of the same aspect ratio and characteristics.
