The aim of this paper is to present an application of high-order numerical analysis methods to a simulation system that models the movement of a cylindrical-shaped object (mine, projectile, etc.) in a marine environment and in general in fluids with important applications in Naval operations. More specifically, an alternative methodology is proposed for the dynamics of the Navy’s three-dimensional mine impact burial prediction model, Impact35/vortex, based on the Dormand–Prince Runge–Kutta fifth-order and the singly diagonally implicit Runge–Kutta fifth-order methods. The main aim is to improve the time efficiency of the system, while keeping the deviation levels of the final results, derived from the standard and the proposed methodology, low.

Abstract. In this paper a new advection scheme for the online coupled chemical–weather prediction model Enviro-HIRLAM is presented. The new scheme is based on the locally mass-conserving semi-Lagrangian method (LMCSL), where the original two-dimensional scheme has been extended to a fully three-dimensional version. This means that the three-dimensional semi-implicit semi-Lagrangian scheme which is currently used in Enviro-HIRLAM is largely unchanged. The HIRLAM model is a computationally efficient hydrostatic operational short-term numerical weather prediction model, which is used as the base for the online integrated Enviro-HIRLAM. The new scheme is shown to be efficient, mass conserving, and shape preserving, while only requiring minor alterations to the original code. It still retains the stability at long time steps, which the semi-Lagrangian schemes are known for, while handling the emissions of chemical species accurately. Several mass-conserving filters have been tested to assess the optimal balance of accuracy vs. efficiency.

A series of six static strength destructive tests were performed on full-scale pre-cracked tubular welded T-joints manufactured from a high strength weldable steel used in the construction of offshore Jack-Up platforms. All specimens had at least one through-thickness fatigue crack at the weld toe, from a previous fatigue-testing programme. The tests were aimed at analysing the residual static strength of the cracked members. As destructive tests are costly to perform, every effort was made to maximise the data collected. This included the use of a novel photogrammetric technique to provide three-dimensional measurement in real time of the deformation in the vicinity of the brace-chord intersection. The technique has been used for large-scale structural testing in a number of civil and aerospace applications, but to the author’s knowledge this is the first time that it has been employed for the full-scale mechanical testing of large steel structures. This paper describes the details of the photogrammetric technique applied to the large steel specimens which were loaded to failure, resulting in the total separation of the intersecting members. It is hoped that the technique can be used to generate information which can be used in conjunction with finite element or other numerical analyses to increase the accuracy and reliability of modelling cracked tubular joints.
