An important part of determining wave forces using Morrison's equation is the accurate determination of hydrodynamic coefficients. The presence of sacrificial anodes increases the hydrodynamic coefficient of jacket member and therefore this research focuses on improving the design of fixed offshore platforms by conducting experimental investigation on rigid cylinders in order to obtaining better estimates for hydrodynamic coefficients. Steel members of size 27 and 34mm diameters were tested in the wave basin 20 m x 10 m x 1 m. Different set of regular waves with varying height and frequency were generated. Clean members were fitted with small welded steel bars of fixed length and size along the member simulating sacrificial anodes. The results show that the coefficients obtained were close to the values proposed by PTS and API standards but are generally lower than the suggested value of 2.0 for both Cd and Cm. © The Authors, published by EDP Sciences, 2017. date: 2017 publisher: EDP Sciences official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-85021328844&doi=10.1051%2fmatecconf%2f201711103004&partnerID=40&md5=35aa9c162d16d9fffb42fb5d2cabd572 id_number: 10.1051/matecconf/201711103004 full_text_status: none publication: MATEC Web of Conferences volume: 111 refereed: TRUE issn: 2261236X citation: Raziqin, A. and John, K.V. and Yee, N.C.
