Project Number 125
Date of Summary June 30, 1991
Subject Seismic Response Analysis of Offshore Pile Supported Structures
Performing Activity University of California, San Diego
Principal Investigator Dr. Toyoaki Nogami
Contracting Agency Minerals Management Service
Estimated Completion Complete
Description This was a Joint Industry Project (JIP) with Tokai University in Japan to exchange information on soil/pile interaction models. The objective was to assess the reliability of current state-of-the-art soil/pile interaction models and their ability to predict the dynamic response of an offshore platform to actual earthquake loadings. The study will be used the seismic data collected from the Subsea Earthquake Measurement System (SEMS) being deployed in Project No. 68. Results of the project will provide information on the applicability of using onshore seismic ground motion records for the design of offshore structures.
