Part I (60Marks)
Answer any three questions,
|. How the probability density function is developed from the time-amplitude
record of a wave data? What is a cumulative distribution function? Define
weak and strong stationary and ergodic processes. Correlate the
autocorrelation function and spectral density function of any random process.

Correlate harmonic response function to impulse response function. Develop a
transter function relating wave elevation n(t) to wave-generated force on the
deck of a 3-legged jack-up offshore platform where the inertia regime governs,

3. Explain and establish Parseval’s theorem. Relate Spectral density function to
variance. Correlate autocorrelation function for force, to that of structural
response. 10+10=20
4. Using Rayleigh's method deduce the following relation, to find natural
frequency of a 3-legged jack-up offshore rig with deck slab of mass ma, length
of legs, 4, and depth of sea, d, while other variables have usual meanings:
