Abstract

In this study, we proposed a pier of pontoon-type, "Very Large Floating Structure" (VLFS), with the length of 500m, breadth of 200 m and height of 2 m in Yeosu domestic port. Since this structure ought to endure wave loads for long periods at sea, it is essential to analyze the wave response characteristics. Direct-method is used to analyze the fluid-structure problem and the coupled motion of equation is used to obtain response results. The structural part is calculated by using finite element method (FEM) and the fluid part is analyzed by using boundary element method (BEM). Dynamic responses caused by the elastic deformation and rigid motion of structure are analyzed by numerical calculation. To investigate response characteristics of the pier in regular waves, several factors such as the wavelength, water depth, wave direction and flexural rigidity of structure are considered. As a result, wave response of pier changed at the point of $L/{\lambda}$ 1.5 and represented the torsional phenomenon according to the various incident waves. And the responses showed increasing tendency as the water depths increase at the incident point in case of $L/{\lambda}=8.0$ and peak point of vertical displacement amplitude moved from side to side as the flexural rigidity of structure changes.

본 연구에서는 국내 여수항만에 길이 500미터, 폭 200미터, 두께 2미터인 폰툰형 VLFS타입의 해상부두를 제안하였다. 이 구조물은 해상에서 오랫동안 파랑하중을 견뎌야하므로 파랑응답해석이 필수적이다. 유체-구조부 해석에는 직접법을 사용하였고, 연성운동방정식을 수치해석하여 응답 결과를 구하였다. 구조부는 유한요소법을 이용하여 계산하였으며, 유체부는 경계요소법을 사용하여 분석하였다. 탄성변형과 강체운동으로 인한 동적응답을 수치적으로 분석하였으며, 파장, 수심, 파향, 구조물의 강성 요소를 고려하여 규칙파에 대한 응답을 해석하였다. 연구의 결과, $L/{\lambda}$ 1.5를 기준으로 응답이 변화하였고, 입사파의 방향에 따라 비틀림 현상이 나타났다. $L/{\lambda}=8.0$의 경우 수심이 증가할수록 입사측에서의 응답이 증가하는 경향이 나타났고, 강성의 변화에 따라 수직변위진폭의 피크점이 좌우로 이동하였다.
