본 논문에서는 선체 블록의 운반 작업 중 발생하는 동적 하중 및 골리앗 크레인의 와이어로프와 선체블록 간의 동적 접촉력을 고려한 최적 러그 배치 시스템을 설계하고, 다물체계 동역학 커널과 외력 계산커널을 개발하였다. 다물체계 동역학 커널은 recursive formulation을 이용하여 운동 방정식을 구성하고, 외력 계산 커널은 비선형 유체정역학적 힘, 선형 유체동역학적 힘, 풍력, 계류력을 계산할 수 있다. 이를 이용해 블록에 작용하는 와이어로프와 블록 간의 간섭과 동적 접촉력을 계산하고, 그 결과를 이용하여 러그가 부착된 블록의 구조 해석을 수행하였다.

In this study, dynamic load and dynamic contact force between a building block and wire ropes of a goliath crane are calculated during lifting or turn-over of a building block for the design of an optimal lug arrangement system. In addition, a multibody dynamics kernel for implementing the system were developed. In the multibody dynamics kernel, the equations of motion are constructed using recursive formulation. To evaluate the applicability of the developed kernels, the interferences and dynamic contact force between the building block and wire ropes were calculated and then the hull structural analysis for the block was performed using the calculation result.

A new formulation for the dynamic analysis of constrained multibody systems is presented in this paper. The formulation employs Kane's method along with the null space method. Kane's method reduces the dimension of equations of motion by using partial velocity matrix introduced in this study : it can improve the efficiency of the formulation. Three numerical examples are given to demonstrate the accuracy and efficiency of the formulation.

In this study, we perform the structural analysis of a floating offshore wind turbine tower by considering the dynamic response of the floating platform. A multibody system consisting of three blades, a hub, a nacelle, the platform, and the tower is used to model the floating wind turbine. The blades and the tower are modeled as flexible bodies using three-dimensional beam elements. The aerodynamic force on the blades is calculated by the Blade Element Momentum (BEM) theory with hub rotation. The hydrostatic, hydrodynamic, and mooring forces are considered for the platform. The structural dynamic responses of the tower are simulated by numerically solving the equations of motion. From the simulation results, the time history of the internal forces at the nodes, such as the bending moment and stress, are obtained. In conclusion, the internal forces are compared with those obtained from static analysis to assess the effects of wave loads on the structural stability of the tower.

Recently, a number of wind turbines are being installed due to the increase of interest in renewable, environment-friendly energy. Especially, an offshore wind turbine is being watched with keen interest in that it has no difficulty in securing a site and can get high quality of wind, as compared with a wind turbine on land. The offshore wind turbine is transferred to and installed on the site by an offshore floating crane after it was made in a factory on land such as shipyard. At this time, it is important to secure the safety of the turbine because of its huge size and expensive cost. Thus, a dynamic analysis of the offshore wind turbine which is connedted with the offshore floating crane was performed based on the multibody systems dynamics in this study. As a result. it is shown that the analysis can be applied to verify the safety of a method for the transportation and installation of the offshore wind turbine suspended by the crane.

In this study, we performed a simulation of the dynamic response of a multibody system to calculate the tension acting on wire ropes connecting floating cranes and a heavy cargo such as a Giga Block weighing over 5000 tons when the cargo is salvaged using parallel connected floating cranes. In this simulation, we supposed that the motion of the floating cranes, barge ship, and heavy cargo has 6 degrees of freedom and that the interaction is determined by constraints among them. In addition, we considered independent hydrostatic and hydrodynamic forces as external forces acting on the floating cranes and barge ship. The simulation result can be a basis for verifying the safety of construction methods in which heavy cargo is salvaged by parallel connected floating cranes, and it can also be used to guide the development of such construction methods.

This paper presents a method for the dynamic analysis of constrained multibody systems undergoing abrupt collision. The proposed method uses a longer time interval to check collision than that of c onventional method. This reduces the computational effort significantly. To calculate collision points on two colliding rigid bodies, one may introduce constraints of contact. However, this causes reduction of degree of freedom and difficulty of numerical analysis. The proposed method can calculate collision points without above mentioned problems. Three numerical examples are given to demonstrate the computational efficiency and the usefulness of the proposed method.

In this paper, dynamic response analysis of a heave compensation system is performed for offshore drilling operations based on multibody dynamics. With this simulation, the efficiency of the heave compensation system can be virtually confirmed before it is applied to drilling operations. The heave compensation system installed on a semi-submersible platform consists of a passive and an active heave compensator. The passive and active heave compensator are composed of several bodies that are connected to each other with various types of joints. Therefore, to carry out the dynamic response analysis, the dynamics kernel was developed based on mutibody dynamics. To construct the equations of motion of the multibody system and to determine the unknown accelerations and constraint forces, the recursive Newton-Euler formulation was adapted. Functions of the developed dynamics kernel were verified by comparing them with other commercial dynamics kernels. The hydrostatic force with nonlinear effects, the linearized hydrodynamic force, and the pneumatic and hydraulic control forces were considered as the external forces that act on the platform of the semi-submersible rig and the heave compensation system. The dynamic simulation of the heave compensation system of the semi-submersible rig, which is available for drilling operations with a 3,600m water depth, was carried out. From the results of the simulation, the efficiency of the heave compensation system were evaluated before they were applied to the offshore drilling operations. Moreover, the calculated constraint forces could serve as reference data for the design of the mechanical system.

This paper proposes a method to obtain the dynamic equilibrium configuration of a constrained mechanical system by using multibody dynamic analysis. Dynamic equilibrium equations with independent coordinates are derived from the time-dependent constraint equations and dynamic equations of a multibody system. The Newton-Raphson method is used to find numerical solutions for nonlinear algebraic equations that are composed of the dynamic equilibrium and constraint equations. The proposed method is applied to obtain the dynamic equilibrium configuration of a speed governor, and the results are verified on the basis of the results from conventional dynamic analysis. Furthermore, vertical displacements at equilibrium configuration, which varied with the rotational velocity of the speed governor, are calculated, and design parameter analysis of the equilibrium configuration is presented.
