DAF Computation - Wave-Current Interaction - SACS - Dynamic Wave Response Analysis

Dear All,

I understand that only waves cause dynamic effect on offshore jackets and current does not contribute in the dynamic behaviour.

I have the following questions regarding to computation of DAF:

  1. Is it correct to compute the base shear using ONLY Wave (instead of using Wave + Current)?

  2. Will Wave-Current interaction have any impact on the Base shear (static & dynamic) computation?

Is it correct to apply the computed DAF to ONLY Wave component (instead of Wave + Current) during In-service analysis?

Thanks and Regards,
