Abstract

The identification of variations in the dynamic behavior of structures is an important subject in structural integrity assessment. Improvement and servicing of offshore platforms in the marine environment with constant changing, requires understanding the real behavior of these structures to prevent possible failure. In this work, empirical and numerical models of jacket structure are investigated. A test on experimental modal analysis is accomplished to acquire the response of structure and a mathematical model of the jacket structure is also performed. Then, based on the control theory using developed reduction system, the matrices of the platform model is calibrated and updated. The current methodology can be applied to prepare the finite element model to be more adaptable to the empirical model. Calibrated results with the proposed approach in this paper are very close to those of the actual model and also this technique leads to a reduction in the amount of calculations and expenses. The research clearly confirms that the dynamic behavior of fixed marine structures should be designed and assessed considering the calibrated analytical models for the safety of these structures.
