Description

This is the Supplementary dataset for the PLOS ONE manuscript, "Parametric analysis on the global design of flexible riser under different environmental conditions using OrcaFlex". It holds some files with more description on the work carried out and source files for the results, as they exist in the paper too. Permission was obtained to add an image used to illustrate ship motion. I would have also added the permission obtained to reuse a ship image as well as the source file for it, but due to personal information protection, it was removed. The main software used in this investigation is OrcaFlex so we made the results and discussions on it. There is an OrcaFlex main file which is also publicly available that was added but it is different from the base case files used. However, this can be used to develop the model using the materials shared in the manuscript. I also added the source files for all the images in the paper including the images in TIFF and DOC formats. We thank all the reviewers and technical support on this paper.

Files

Steps to reproduce

The files here easy to extract and use. The only one that would need a specialist software is the OrcaFlex file, as the software can be obtained from Orcina website, but also it is available in various consultancy firms, institutions, wind energy companies as well as oil and gas operators. The remaining files are image files and word files that are easy to extract and use. Best wishes and thanks for the interest in our research.
