| Experience |
Dr Frieze has over 30 years experience in the offshore, naval architecture and structural engineering fields. Much of this has been concerned with the analysis, design, and ultimate and damage residual strength assessments of bridges, ships, offshore structures (jackets, semi-submersibles, TLPs, floating systems and jack-ups) and dock gates, and their reliability assessment. This has also concerned construction effects and design methodologies and approaches. Dr Frieze's specialities are; non-linear analysis, dynamic analysis, ultimate strength, damage assessment, experimental analysis, code development, load and resistance factor derivation, and structural reliability analysis. He has applied these primarily to steel structures and more recently to composite structures. He is a member of the BSI and ISO Committees for the development of an International Offshore Structures Code and as well participates in the detailed work of three of the panels concerned with steel jackets, floating systems and jack-ups. Dr Frieze has undertaken forensic work in relation to damage assessment cases and appeared as an expert witness in disputes involving damage, construction defects, and design criteria of a range of predominantly marine structures. He has acted as a sole expert. |
