“…Thus, for design purposes, the use of the Taby (USFOS) curve seems reasonable. The residual capacities predicted by Buldgen et al (2014) and Jones and Shen (1992) have a different trend and seem to be too optimistic for the dent range of interest. The situation is somewhat similar to dented offshore pipelines.…”

“…Cho (Cho, 1987(Cho, , 1990 proposed an empirical equation for denting resistance considering contact width: Buldgen et al (2014) and Jones and Shen (1992) presented analytical solutions for the complete behaviors of tubular members including local denting, global bending and membrane stretching. For local denting, Buldgen et al (2014) extended the model of Wierzbicki and Suh (1988) to consider different struck tube orientations and positions, and the shape of the striking ship stem.…”

“…A few researchers have proposed analytical solutions for the lateral deflection resistance of tubular members considering a dented cross section, such as Ellinas and Walker (1983), Jones and Shen (1992), Buldgen et al (2014), etc. Ellinas and Walker (1983) assumed that local denting ceased immediately when the tube started global bending.…”

“…Similar findings were reported by Travanca and Hao (2014b) through extensive numerical simulations. Buldgen et al (2014) presented an analytical solution considering the complete behaviors including local denting, global bending and membrane stretching. The different orientations and positions of the struck tube, and the shape of the striking ship stem were accounted for.…”

Over the past decades, the offshore oil and gas industry has developed rapidly. A large number of offshore structures, notably jacket and jack-up platforms, were constructed and installed worldwide. As they are often exposed to safety threats from impacts by visiting vessels and dropped objects, there has been a continuous interest in understanding the impact mechanics of tubular structures and proposing practical design standards to protect from collisions. This paper reviews the state-of-the-art with respect to the response dynamics and mechanics of offshore tubular structures subjected to mass impacts, covering material modelling, ship impact loading, energy absorption in the ship and platform, global and local responses of tubular structures, the residual strengths of damaged tubular members and design considerations to mitigate against ship impacts. A wealth of information is available in the literature, and recent findings and classical references, which have a wide influence, are prioritized. The collected information is compared and discussed. The findings in this paper will help understand the impact response of offshore tubular structures and assessment procedures, and provide useful indications for future research.
