Abstract
Offshore structures such as oil platforms are subjected to significant environmental loads caused by wind, waves, and current. The complexity of offshore environment requires robust and reliable models to capture dependencies among environmental variables. A vine copula is a powerful tool that can be used to construct multivariate models by decomposing the complex structure into a series of simple pair copulas. Previous studies have shown that simple and symmetric copulas can be used as building blocks to construct vine copula models. In this study, symmetric and asymmetric copula functions are considered building blocks to capture all possible dependency structures. The c-vine model is then used to estimate the total environmental load on an offshore structure. Estimated loads are compared with those using the traditional independent variable approach and a multi-Gaussian distribution function-based method. The results reveal that both symmetric and asymmetric copula functions can be fitted to build c-vine copula models for the trivariate case. C-vine copulas, constructed using asymmetric copulas, provide a better estimation of the total environmental load than the independent and multivariate Gaussian methods . The result of this study is useful in probabilistic structural analysis of offshore structures for design and resilience analysis.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
