A series of experiments were performed to see the dependence of the response characteristics of vortex-induced vibration of flexible cylinders on mass rations for marine applications. Experiments were conducted in the $60cm{\times}60cm$ test section of the cavitation tunnel at the Korea Research Institute of Ships and Ocean Engineering using 5 test rods of 60cm length and 6mm diameter with different mass ratios. It was confirmed quantitatively from the experiments that the low mass ratio cylinders have much broader flow velocity range of large amplitude vibrations than high mass ratio ones.

A floating offshore structure has high tendency to occur the buckling when compressive, bending and shear loads applied. When the buckling is occurred, in-plane stiffness of structure is remarkably decreased. And it has a harmful effect on the local structural strength as well as global structural strength. In the present study, it has been investigated the ultimate strength of tubular members which is located between a floater and a damping plate of the floating pendulum wave energy converter. Nonlinear finite element method is conducted using the initial imperfection according to 1st buckling mode which is obtained from the elastic buckling analysis. It is also noted the ultimate bending strength characteristic varying with a diameter, thickness and stiffeners of the tubular member.

본 논문은 반 잠수식 시추선과 선박과의 충돌해석에의 정적 압축법의 응용에 대해 다루었다. 선박이 시추선의 취약 부재에 충돌하는 경우를 가정하였으며 이 취약한 부재의 충돌에너지 흡수능력을 상세 해석 없이 추출하는 방법으로, 관련된 구조물 전체 강성 매트릭스를 부재의 양단에 정적 압축을 시켜 양단 유연도를 추출한 뒤 이 유연도를 양단에 가진 원통형 부재를 해석함으로써 외력-변형 관계를 얻을수 있었다. 충돌에너지 양은 외력-변형 선도를 적분함으로써 얻을 수 있다. 새로운 방법에 의한 결과를 3차원 수치해석 방법과 강체 프라스틱 방법에 의해서 얻어진 결과와 상호 비교하였으며, 이 새로운 방법이 해양구조물 충돌해석이 매우 효과적으로 응용될 수 있음을 알게 되었다.

The present study attempts to develop the theoretical model for the damage estimation of offshore tubular members which are subjected to the accidental impact loads due to collision, falling objects and so on. For the reasons of the simplicity of the problem being considered, however, this paper postulates that the accidental load can be approximated to be the quasi-static one, in which dynamic effects are negelcted. Based upon the theoretical and experimental results which are obtained from the present study as well as the existing literature, the load-displacement relations taking the interaction effect between the local denting and the global bending deformation into account are presented in the explicit form when the concentrated lateral load acts on the tubular member whose end condition is supposed to be rotation ally free and axially restrained, in which membrane forces develop. Thus, the practical estimation of damage deformation for the local denting and the global bending damage of tubular members against the accidental loads is possible and also the collision absorption capability of the member can be calculated by performing the integration of the area below the given load-displacement curves, provided that all the energy is dissipated to the deforming the member itself.

Simple and efficient way of nonlinear analysis considering elasto-plastic large deformation is introduced to calculate the strength of ring-stiffened cylinears subject to combined load of axial compression and lateral pressure. Parametric study gives various collapse modes according to the combination ratio of axial compression and lateral pressure, interaction between axial compression and lateral pressure and imperfection sensitivity of ultimate strength.

본 연구에서는 내심형 장력재가 셀 벽속에 묻혀 있는 경우에, 셀의 진동 및 내부 음압을 셀과 장력부재 그리고 내부 충진유체들의 상호 작용을 고려하여 계산하였다. 계산 결과, 셀 재료와 인장 부재의 탄성계수, 감쇠특성의 차이에 따라 응답이 변화함을 확인할 수 있었으며, 각각의 재료 특성 및 설계 변수들에 대한 추가 연구를 수행하여, 내심형 장력 부재를 갖는 유체 충진 원통형 셀의 진동 전달 특성 해석 및 최적화 설계에 이 연구 결과들을 적용할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

A general formulation of the long cylinder tolerance design for the joint structure is here presented. The aim of this paper is to calculate the tolerance of joint by defining tolerance as a kind of uncertainty and to obtain the robustness of the joint structure. It is formulated on the bases of the minimum sensitivity theorem. The objective function is the tolerance sensitivity for the Von-Mises stress. It also took into full account the stress, displacement and weight constraints. PLBA(Pshenichny-Lim-Belegundu-Arora) algorithm is used to solve the constrained nonlinear optimization problem. The finite element analysis is performed with CST(Constant-Strain-Triangle) axisymmetric element. Sensitivities for design variables are calculated by the direct differentiation method. The numerical result is presented for the cylindrical structure where the joint tolerance is treated as random variables.

Loads on offshore structures are largely transferred to the bracing members in the form of axial forces. The detrimental effects of imperfections on compressive strength are well recognized. Damage in the members of offshore structures would significantly affect the compressive behavior of the members. As a result, such damages may also affect the ability of the structure to withstand the functional and environmental loads. It is important to be able to assess the residual strength of damaged members quickly and accurately. This will help operators to make the decision whether the member has to be repaired or not. In this study, a series of calculation is performed to study the effects of different parameters on the behavior of such damaged members under axial load. And the results of analysis are compared with those of experiment.
