关于作者

Yong Bai, Ph D is the president of Offshore Pipelines & Risers Inc. in Houston, and

the director of the Offshore Engineering Research Center at Zhejiang University. His

distinguished academic journey features a previous Professor of Offshore Structures at

Stavanger University in Norway. Apart from his academic endeavors, he has an equally

impressive track record in industry, with roles such as Manager of the Offshore Technology

Department at ABS, Joint Industry Project (JIP) Manager at DNV, and Staff Engineer at

Shell International E & P. He is the author of the numerous books, including multiple volumes available from Scrivener Publishing, and over 100 papers.



Shuai Yuan, Ph D, obtained his doctorate in structural engineering at Zhejiang University. He deepened his expertise through postdoctoral research at the same institution, focusing on the

structural analysis of flexibles, and further expanded his repertoire of skills by engaging in

detailed studies of marine operation simulation at the Norwegian University of Science and

Technology. He recently commenced his role as a senior engineer, aiming to integrate

theoretical knowledge with practical engineering solutions.



Kaien Jiang, Ph D, completed his doctoral studies in structural engineering at Zhejiang

University. His primary research focuses on fatigue analysis on marine power

cables. By conducting extensive laboratory experiments and numerical simulations, Dr.

Jiang aims to enhance the understanding of cable fatigue behavior and develop predictive

models for cable design and maintenance. He currently is deepening his expertise through postdoctoral research at Huadong Engineering Corporation Ltd., Power China Group, focusing

on the structural analysis of offshore electrical platforms.
