This example considers the analysis of a flexible riser in steep wave configuration. The steep wave riser configuration is shown below. The riser in this example is 290m in length and is sited in 200m of water. It is filled with oil and attached to a production vessel.
The analysis is performed in two stages. The initial static analysis applies gravity and buoyancy forces. The dynamic analysis finds the response of the structure to vessel motions and wave loading.
