Design Optimization of a VX Gasket Structure for a Subsea Connector Based on the Kriging Surrogate Model-NSGA-II Algorithm Considering the Load Randomness

The VX gasket is an important part of the wellhead connector for a subsea Christmas tree. Optimization of the gasket’s structure can improve the connector’s sealing performance. In this paper, we develop an optimization approach for the VX gasket structure, taking into considerat...
