Abstract

Kekuatan U-Bolt adalah elemen kunci dalam keamanan dan ketergantungan konstruksi laut. Tantangan utama dalam menilai kekuatan U-bort untuk kapal modern dan anjungan lepas pantai adalah beragamnya standar untuk pipa dan komponen lainnya karena keragaman material dan persyaratan yang digunakan dalam aplikasi ini. Fokus evaluasi kekuatan dari pekerjaan penelitian ini adalah untuk menentukan nilai tegangan dan deformasi maksimum yang diijinkan dari U-Bolt dengan memeriksa kekuatan yang diijinkan. Perhitungan elemen hingga (FE) dan faktor keamanan digunakan untuk mengevaluasi kekuatan dan stabilitas sepatu yang dilas. FEM menyediakan metodologi sistematis yang dapat digunakan untuk menentukan solusi, dalam kasus contoh kita, bidang temperatur, dengan menyelesaikan sistem persamaan aljabar linier yang besar. Diharapkan hasil penelitian ini dapat digunakan sebagai acuan untuk analisis nilai tegangan maksimum yang diijinkan pada tipe U-Bolt sesuai standar.

The strength of U-Bolt is a key element in the security and dependability of marine constructions. The main challenge in assessing the strength of a U-Bolt for modern ships and offshore platforms is the vast range of standards for the pipes and other components due to the diversity of materials and requirements used in these applications. The strength evaluation focus of this research work is to determine the maximum allowable stress and deformation values of the U-bolts by checking the allowable strength. Finite element (FE) calculations and safety factors are used to evaluate the strength and stability of welded shoes. The FEM provides a systematic methodology by which the solution, in the case of our example, the temperature field, can be determined by solving large systems of linear algebraic equations. It is expected that the results of this study can be used as a reference for the analysis of maximum allowable stress values of U-Bolt type according to the standard.
