You are cordially invited to a seminar organized by Center for Offshore Research and Engineering, CORE and Department of Civil Engineering, NUS on
Curved Sandwich Shells for Arctic Structures
by
Prof. Peter W. Marshall PhD, PE, CVA, Lloyds Register / Visiting Professor Center for Offshore Research & Engineering, Department of Civil Engineering, NUS
Date: Wednesday , 25 March 2009 Time: 4.30 pm – 6.00 pm Refreshment will be served at 4.15 pm. Venue: EA–02–11, Faculty of Engineering, National University of Singapore
Abstract
Weak bond impairs the ability of steel-grout-steel sandwich panels to withstand shell bending. Contact loading covering various portions of panel arc and panel length is studied, with loads off center and pressure varied with contact area per existing API RP 2N and proposed ISO 19906 criteria for multi-year ice on Arctic structures.
About the speaker
Peter Marshall holds Bachelor of Civil Engineering and Master of Science degrees from the University of Florida, and a PhD in Environmental Science Kumamoto University, Japan. He worked with Shell Oil for 31 years. His design work and criteria development helped improve the reliability of fixed offshore platforms and enabled the expansion of offshore development into challenging environments. He led the initial design team for "Bullwinkle," the present world record fixed platform (1350-ft water depth).
After retiring from Shell in 1993, Marshall became Professor, Chair of Marine Design and Construction, University of Newcastle-upon-Tyne, England. He currently holds the Lloyds Register Chair at the Center for Offshore Research and Engineering, National University of Singapore, and is sole proprietor, MHP Systems Engineering, a specialist consultant to offshore design firms and oil companies. In 2006, he received the OTC Distinguished Achievement Award for Individuals, and was the Kurobane Lecturer at ISTS-11. Contact Person: Prof Andrew Palmer, Tel: 6516 4601, Email: [email protected]
