Abstract
Abstract The paper discusses the nonlinear response effects to jack-up platforms caused by non-Gaussian waves. The basis for the paper is field and model test observations of wave characteristics and simulation of wave processes and dynamic response applying different wave and wave kinematics models. Both normal design sea states and extremely steep sea states are investigated. In the design sea states, effects to the steady state dynamic response are evaluated. For the steep wave situations transient response effects—so called ringing response— are focused. Consequences and implication for design calculations are considered in both cases.
