This Technical Note provides an overview of the automatic wave loading features incorporated in a specific structural analysis program. The objective is to elucidate the methodologies employed to calculate wave loads based on standards established by the American Petroleum Institute in their 2000 guidelines. The methodology includes the definition of wave load cases using user-defined or calculated parameters leveraging wave theories such as Airy, Stokes, or Cnoidal. Key parameters include wave height, wave period, and storm water depth, with additional factors like current velocity and wind load also integrated. The results demonstrate the system's flexibility in accommodating various wave parameters on an object-by-object basis, enhancing the accuracy of wave load analysis during structural assessment. Furthermore, the document delves into the modifications of wave parameters and their implications on structural performance under dynamic loading conditions. Overall, this Technical Note serves as a foundational guide for engineers and researchers working with marine structures and their response to hydrodynamic forces.
