Dynamic response analysis is carried out for slender marine structures such as tensioned risers and tethers of tension leg platform, which are subjected to floating vessel motions as well as environmental forces arising from ocean waves. A mumerical analysis procedure is developed by using finite element model of the structural member. Dynamic analses are performed in the time domain for regular waves. Parameter studies are carried out to highlight the effects of surface vessel motions on the lateral dynamics of the structures. Example results of displacements, bending stresses are compared for various in water depth, environmental condition and vessel motion. Some instability conditions of the structures due to time-varying tension by vessel heave motion are discussed through the example analyses. As the results, the interaction between vessel surge and heave motions amplifies the total structural response of a riser. In the case of a tether, the effect of vessel heave motion during heavy storm is seemed to be quite significant to lateral response of the structure.

The present study provides numerical simulations to predict the added resistance and ship motion of the KVLCC2 in regular waves using the unsteady Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes (URANS) and 3-D potential methods. This numerical analysis is focused on added resistance and vertical ship motions (heave and pitch) under a wide range of wave conditions at three ship speeds (design, operating and zero speeds). Firstly, the characteristics of the CFD and 3-D potential flow methods are presented to predict added resistance and ship motions in regular waves taking into account various wave conditions at design speed to provide a validation study as well as at operating and zero speeds. Secondly, analyses of added resistance and ship motion with unsteady wave patterns and time history results as simulated by CFD were performed at each ship speed. Systematic validation and verifications of the numerical computations in this study were made against available Experimental Fluid Dynamics (EFD) data including grid convergence tests to demonstrate that reliable numerical results were obtained for the prediction of added resistance and ship motion in waves. Relationships between added resistance, vertical motion and changes in ship speeds were also found.

선박의 다양화와 부두의 제한성으로 인하여 수심이 얕은 수역이나 협소한 부두에 접안 시 소형계류시설 및 부유체를 이용하여 해상 공간을 활용하고 있다. 이를 통하여 다양한 장소에서 접안이 가능하며 나아가 상당한 비용절감 효과를 가질 수 있다. 그러나 소형계류 및 부유체를 활용한 선박의 접안 시 파랑에 의해 부유체와 선박간 충격이 발생할 수 있고 이러한 충격이 대형사고로 발생할 수 있는 위험이 상존함에 따라 계류재 및 부유체의 파랑에 의한 움직임 예측과 분석이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 계류재 및 부유체 운동해석을 위한 3차원 운동 정보와 가속도를 측정함으 써 거동 특성에 대한 기초 자료를 제공하는 계측시스템을 개발하였고, 이 시스템의 구성 및 원리 등에 대하여 소개하고자 한다.

본 연구는 선형이론에 기반한 상용코드를 이용하여 불규칙파중에서 다점계류중인 해양구조물의 계류력과 운동응답특성을 추정하였다. 경험적인 실험에 의존했던 방법의 병행하여 해를 갖을 필요성을 인식하지만 초기설계단계에서 계류력의 추정과 설치해역의 자연환경조건에서 해양구조물의 생명주기에 대한 추정을 하는 것은 충분한 의미를 가질 수 있다. 설치해역은 연안해역의 환경조건을 적용하였으며 해석대상은 길이 200미터, 폭 30미터 높이 10미터의 강구조물에 대해서 선정하였다. 해석결과 대형구조물의 운동응답은 계류삭과 현수선의 의존도가 높게 나타났다. 불규칙 파랑하중에 대한 종횡강도에 대한 추가연구가 필요하다.

In the present study, the amount of slow drift motion damping of shuttle tanker in still water and various environments is measured through free decay model test. Although the estimation of slow drift damping is essential in analysing slow drift motion of moored FPSO or DP controlled shuttle tanker, it is difficult to predict damping accurately by theoretical analysis. The estimation of drift damping depends on model test mostly. Through the model test, the amount of slow drift damping is measured and the effects of environments and thruster action on drift damping are investigated. The measured damping characteristics are expected to be used in the analysis on slow drift motion of moored vessel.

A ship runs with various modes of motion due to waves. Among the modes, roll mainly influences on the safety of cargos on the deck of container ship. In order to protect cargo shifting and turning, securing and lashing system are generally installed. In that case, it is necessary that the force and moment at the connection point of containers should be estimated. Therefore we derived mathematical equations to calculate the forces of securing points and lashing wires. Also we calculated those forces and moments about various lashing patterns.

In this paper, the wave-induced motion characteristics of a floating pendulor are investigated numerically. A floating pendulor is a movable-body-type wave energy converter. This device consists of three main parts (floater, pendulum, and damping plates). In order to obtain the hydrodynamic coefficients and wave exciting forces acting on floating bodies, a higher-order boundary element method (HOBEM) using a wave Green function is applied to the present problems. The hinged motion of a pendulum is simulated by applying the penalty method. In order to obtain a more realistic motion response for a pendulor, numerical body damping is included. First, the wave force and motion characteristics of just a floater are observed with respect to different shape parameters. Then, a coupled analysis of a floater, pendulum, and damping plates is carried out. The relative pitch velocity and wave forces acting on the floating pendulor are compared with those of a fixed pendulor.

In this paper, the analytic studies on the wave control performance of moored pontoon-type floating breakwater are presented. A two-dimensional eigenfunction expansion method is adopted to study the motion responses and the transmission coefficients of pontoon-type floating breakwater in beam waves. The stiffness coefficients of mooring line are idealized as linear elastic spring. Comparison of the analytical results with a numerical results (FEM) shows good agreement over a wide range of frequencies. The performance of mooed pontoon-type floating breakwater is tested with various design parameters such as sectional geometry, mooring line characteristics and wave frequencies. It is found that the properly designed floating breakwater can be an effective wave control structure.
