... A large number of ocean activities call for real time or on-line forecasting of wind wave characteristics including significant wave height ( Hs ). The work reported in this paper uses statistics, and artificial neural networks trained with an optimization technique called simulated annealing...

... not practical to perform a complete simulation for every 3-hour period of environmental data being considered. Therefore, an Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) modelling technique has been developed for the prediction of FPSO’s responses to arbitrary wind, wave and current loads that alleviates this problem...

... on LEFM have been proposed in this regard. Each of them uses different methods for estimating Stress Intensity Modification Factor (Y). In this research two types of Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) are trained for predicting the Y factor: Radial Basis Function (RBF) and Multi Layer Perceptron...
