Reliable Marine Structures Group

General Information

The rms-group is a small research organization run by Professor Bert Sweetman in the Maritime Systems Engineering Department at Texas A&M University at Galveston. Present research is on application of statistical methods and random vibration theory to offshore marine risers and to offshore wind turbines.

The group also serves as a focal point for the ongoing use and development of the Marine-related tools and techniques resulting from research in the (now defunct) Marine part of the Reliability of Marine Structures Group at Stanford University. Seismic-related research continues at Stanford University under Assistant Professor Jack Baker. If you were previously a sponsor of the RMS research group at Stanford, you are automatically a member of this user's group. The usernames and passwords here are the same as those at the Reliabilty of Marine Structures website.

RMS Publications

A collection of published papers, presentations, research reports and PhD theses have been produced by the RMS group at Stanford. Many of these are available for download.
