Abstract

In this paper, the effects of free surface fluctuation on the dynamic response of offshore structure is studied. In order to make the mathematical treatment of problem more tractable, only a single degree of freedom system subjected a long crested, stationary, Gaussian, non-breaking random waves of arbitrary bandwidth is considered. Wave force is computed based on the Morison equation in which wave induced fluid particle velocity and acceleration are modified to account for the effect of intermittent submergence of structural members near the free surface. It is shown that the response spectrum is reduced and higher harmonic response component appears when the intermittent submergence of structural member is considered. Furthermore, it is also found that the amount of reduction in the response spectrum is getting smaller as frequency is increased which might be attributed to the higher harmonic component caused by intermittent submergence and these effects are getting profound as water depth is decreased.

1차 자유도를 갖는 해양구조물을 선정하여 long crested, stationary, Gaussian random waves가 구조물의 동적응답 스펙트럼에 미치는 영향에 대해 규명하였다. 해수면 부근에서 주기적으로 수면위로 부상하는 연직부재를 고려하기 위해 hybrid Morison equation을 제안했고 이 방정식을 기초로 파력을 계산했다. 주기적으로 수면위로 부상하는 효과를 고려한 결과 동적응답 스펙트럼은 감소하였으며 고차 응당성분이 발생했다. 또한 동적응답 스펙트럼은 주파수가 증가할수록 감소하는 경향을 보였으며 이는 해수면 위로 주기적으로 부상하는 현상을 고려할 때 발생하는 고차응답성분 때문인 것으로 사료된다.
