In this study, the dynamic modeling of floating offshore wind turbine system is reported and the dynamic behavior of the platform for the offshore wind turbine system is analyzed. The modeling of the wind load for a floating offshore wind turbine tower is based on the vertical profile of wind speed. The relative Morison equation is employed to obtain the wave load. ADAMS is used to carry out the dynamic analysis of the floating system that should withstand waves and the wind load. Computer simulations for four types of tension leg platforms are performed, and the simulation results for the platforms are compared with each other.

Empirical design is still used to avoid a structural damage because impact phenomenon and structural behaviour due to wave impact load can not examined accurately. The damage due to wave impact load is largely affected by impact pressure impulse and impact load area. The objective of this study is, as the second step, to develop an efficient scantling program of bow flare structure, and to predict its impact load area by comparing maximum dented deformations at center of idealized panel structure model of bow flare structure of 300k DWT VLCC using LS/DYNA3D code, which will be used for its verification of dynamic structural analysis, as the next step. Through this study, the impact load area was estimated as $1.5s{\times}1.5s$ stiffener space(s) in the case of panel with stiffeners and as $2.5s{\times}2.5s$, with stringers, under impact pressure curve with peak height 6.5MPa, tail height 1.0MPa, and duration time 5.0msec.

The shape of floating superstructure is the same as other buildings, but the foundation is based not on land but on a floating body. Unlike inland structures, they are largely influenced by the wave load. Deformation of the floating pontoon due to the wave loads affects the connection, which in turn causes problems related to the habitability and safety to the superstructure users. Accordingly, this study conducted elastic analysis regarding rigid connection and semi-rigid connection by the integration analysis that combined together the superstructure and pontoon of the 3-D floating structure. Moreover, this study investigated the results of the separation analysis excluding pontoon and the integration analysis. In addition, elasticity analysis was used to divide up the wave loads cases, and to classify the moment and displacement of the structure depending on connection following the changes in the wave loads.

In order to design floating structures, it should be required to evaluate hydrodynamic motions and structural behavior under the wave loadings. Then, structural behavior of floating structures should be evaluated including the effects of wave-induced hydraulic pressure subjected to floating structures. However, there has been a problem to exactly evaluate structural behavior of floating structures since it was difficult to directly connect wave-induced hydraulic pressure resulting from hydrodynamic analysis with structural analysis model. In this study, in order to exactly evaluate structural behavior of floating structures under the wave loading, integrated analysis of hydrodynamic motion and structural behavior was carried out to the large-scaled floating structure. The wave-induced hydraulic pressure resulting from hydrodynamic analysis AQWA were directly mapped to structural analysis model ANSYS bia Workbench interface of ANSYS Inc.. As the results of this study, it was found that the integrated analysis of this study evaluate exactly structural behavior of floating structures under the wave loadings since this method can directly reflect wave-induced hydraulic pressure resulting from hydrodynamic analysis to structural analysis model. Also, as the results of structural behavior evaluation, it was found that the tensile stress on the top slab was maximized at the wave direction of $0^{\circ}$, and tensile stress on the bottom slab was maximized at the wave direction of $45^{\circ}$, respectively.

에너지자원(석유, 천연가스, 전기) 이송과 정보전달(해저광케이블)을 위한 다양한 형태의 해저 매설관이 해저면에 설치되어 운영이 되고 있다. 이들 매설관은 지진 또는 해저사면의 유실과 같은 자연재해로 인해 파괴되는 일들이 빈번하게 발생되고 있다. 그 외 태풍 등에 의해 발생되는 파랑하중에 의해서도 이들 매설관이 종종 파괴되는 일이 발생되기도 한다. 태풍 등에 의한 파랑하중은 해저지반에 과다한 과잉간극수압을 발생시켜 지반 액상화를 유발 세굴을 발생시키는데 이로 인해 매설관 하부에는 과도한 인장응력이 유발되어 매설관의 파괴 문제가 야기된다. 만약 석유수송 해저매설관이 파괴되면 경제적?산업적 측면에서 직접적인 피해 이외에도 해양환경에 미치는 영향은 매우 크다고 볼 수 있다. 따라서 파랑하중에 의한 해저매설관 주변 지반의 거동 분석 및 안정성 평가에 관한 연구가 요구된다.

In this present study, to evaluate a behavior characteristics of the sea dyke coastal covering stone by sea waves. sea waves act on coastal structures as an impact load. During impact loading, erosion and bluff slumping occur in the coastal structures. Also, the covering stone are worn down by wave impact. The sea dyke has been used near coastal region for protection of infra-structure since 1970s in Korea. The sea dyke consist of dredged sand and covering stone mainly. The damage type of covering stone has been reported since 1970s. However, the interaction of impact load by sea wave with the covering stone has not been investigated yet properly. Mainly damage type of covering stone is an abrasion. But the study of covering stone abrasion is not sufficient. Hence, In this study, it was analyzed the interaction of impact load by sea wave and the covering stone during sea wave action on coastal structures. In order to analyze the behavior characteristics of coastal covering stone considering the magnitude and period of impact loading and to evaluate the displacement increment of covering stone during impact load, numerical analysis was carried out considering impact loading by sea wave.

방파제 설계시 고려되는 파랑하중에 대한 설계 방법으로 기존 설계는 정수압만을 고려한 정적해석을 실시하였으며 최근 설계에서는 정정해석과 동적해석을 동시에 실시하고 있다. 하지만 이때의 동적해석 방법은 파랑하중에 의한 파압을 구조물내의 임의의 지점에서만 산정하여 등가파압으로 적용하여 해석을 하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 방파제의 경사면뿐만 아니라 해저지반에서의 파압을 추가적으로 고려함과 동시에 등 가파압이 아닌 모든 절점에서의 파압을 산정하여 파압을 적용하였다. 그 결과 현재의 설계법과 본연구의 설계법으로 구한 침하량의 값이 상당한 차이를 나타내고 있다.

파랑하중은 선체의 구조해석을 위해 필수적인 입력자료로서 이의 정확한 추정이 매우 중요하다는 사실은 누구도 인정하지만, 이는 기본적으로 구조역학의 문제가 아니며 또한 내항성 분야의 기본관심 항목도 아니기 때문에 적어도 국내에서는 양분야로부터 경원시되어 온 것이 사실이다. 최근 ITTC와 ISSC가 이의 중요성을 새삼스레 인식하고 이에 관한 산하기구를 두어 공동으로 운영하고자 하는 노력은 매우 고무적인 일이라 할 수 있다.

The damages due to wave impact loads are largely affected by impact pressure impulse and impact load area. The objective of this study is, as the third step, to perform dynamic structural analysis of bow flare structure of 300,000 DWT VLCC using LS/DYNA3D code, and to verify its dynamic structural behaviors. The impact load areas of stiffener space $1.5s{\times}1.5s$ and $2.5s{\times}2.5s$ are applied to bow flare structure part with relatively flexible stiffeners, and with stiff members such as stringers, webs etc., respectively, under the wave impact load with peak height 6.5MPa, tail 1.0MPa, and duration time 5.0msec. Through the dynamic structural analysis in this study, it might be thought that the structural strength of bow flare structure is generally sufficient for these wave impact load and areas, except that large damages were found at bow flare structure area with flexible wide span stiffeners.

The wave energy absorption efficiency and the first-order and the time-mean second-order wave loads of a three-dimensional bottom-mounted oscillating water column (OWC) chamber structure are studied. The potential problem is solved by making use of a hybrid Green integral equation associated with the finite-waterdepth free-surface Green function outside a twin chamber and the Rankine Green function inside taking account of the fluctuating air pressure inside the chamber. Numerical results of the primary wave energy converting efficiency and the oscillating and steady wave loads of a three-dimensional bottom-mounted OWC pilot plant have been presented.
