Rigid Finite Element Method in Analysis of Dynamics of Offshore Structures
This book describes new methods developed for modelling dynamics of machines commonly used in the offshore industry. These methods are based both on the rigid finite element method, used for the description of link deformations, and on homogeneous transfo
