Synopsis
Charles Sparks has written the definitive work on riser behavior, which will be of permanent value to engineers confronted by riser analysis problems whether they are university students or drilling veterans with extensive experience. This book is based on the author’s 28 years of experience with riser analysis and, in particular, on his previous publications, some of which have become classics of riser literature. Basic principles governing riser behavior are presented and justified clearly. The primary parameters that influence riser behavior are identified and their influence illustrated using Excel spreadsheets provided on an accompanying CD-ROM. Readers will also be able to use these files with their own data. The spreadsheets are designed firstly to illustrate and confirm affirmations made in the text, but readers will also be able to use them to carry out their own simplified analyses. This book is a must-own for anyone who deals with riser technology, from the classroom student to the offshore drilling platform engineer. Features and Benefits: • Clear understanding of the principal parameters that influence riser behavior with their mode of influence. • Clear procedures for analyzing very tricky problems such as those involving multi-barrier risers of anisotropic materials subjected to changes of fluids, pressures, and temperatures. • Means of making rapid ballpark” analyses before and after running sophisticated FE riser programs. • Ability to make simplified analyses using Excel spreadsheets provided on a companion CD-ROM., A work on the fundamentals of riser mechanics. It aims to increase understanding of many aspects of riser static and dynamic behavior. It presents basic principles using several different complementary approaches. It also identifies the primary parameters that influence riser behavior., Charles Sparks has written this definitive work on the fundamentals of riser mechanics, with the aim of increasing understanding of many aspects of riser static and dynamic behavior. This book is based on the author's 28 years of experience with riser analysis and, in particular, on his previous publications, some of which have become classics of riser literature. Basic principles are clearly established using several different complementary approaches. The primary parameters that influence riser behavior are identified, and their influence is illustrated using 17 Excel files, provided on an accompanying CD-ROM, which readers are able to use with their own data. The files are intended primarily to allow readers to confirm the validity of statements made in the text, but they can also be used to for the simplified analysis of particular riser problems. This book is a must-own, for anyone who deals with riser design and analysis or with riser technology, from the classroom student to the offshore drilling platform engineer.

- s***t (2792)- Feedback left by buyer.Past yearVerified purchaseFast shipper, item carefully packaged but was delivered severely damaged by FedEx. This was not the seller's fault. The seller went above and beyond to file a claim with FedEx, and kept me updated on the progress of the claim. Unfortunately FedEx refunded only part of the value of the damaged item yet the seller refunded the full amount, taking a double loss. I wish there were a way to show greater respect and positive feedback to this upstanding and honorable seller.Oryx 3 Watch Winders for Automatic Watches Wooden Rotating Watch (#355966554590)
