A Study on the Fore-and-After Vibration of Superstructure

선체(船體) 상부구조물(上部構造物)의 전후진동(前後振動)에 관한 연구(硏究)

In recent years increased attention has been directed towards the problems of vibration and noise in superstructure, which have caused major problems with regard to the environmental afterbody of the ship, and the fore-and-after vibration of superstructure due to the vertical vibration of main hull girder is the most important as for the inhabitation of the ship. Accordingly, in this paper, the characteristics of the fore-and after vibration of superstructure and studied systematically with regard to the shape and height of superstructure based on finite element method of beam-like model. The study is divided into two parts, one is the calculation of natural frequencies and the other is the investigation of response at the top of superstructure caused by in its harmonic excitation force at the stern of hull girder. For the natural frequency the calculation results are shown that the higher superstructure is, the lower the natural frequencies of the fore-and-after vibration of superstructure is. It means that the natural frequency of superstructure is close to that of hull girder. The response of vertical direction at the stern of hull girder induced by unit harmonic force is less affected by the shape and the height of superstructure but the response of the fore-and-after direction at the top of superstructure is affected considerably by those of superstructure.
