An Improved Version of ETS-Regression Models in Calculating the Fixed Offshore Platform Responses
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022 An offshore structural design should accurately calculate wave loads and structural responses acting on slender cylinders. The hydrodynamic drag-dominated force was always challenging, hence the hydrodynamic wave loading became a complex solution; it led
