PROBABILISTIC STABILITY ANALYSIS OF GRAVITY PLATFORMS
A probabilistic model is proposed for evaluating the variation of stability risks over time after platform installation. A Bayesian procedure is formulated to update the statistics of the consolidation parameters from settlement measurements, and reevaluate the probability of foundation failure in subsequent years. A case study is used to demonstrate the proposed methodology. For the covering abstract of the conference see TRIS no 450958.
