A numerical procedure is described for simultaneously predicting the wave exciting forces and drift forces on a Tension Leg Platform (TLP) in multi-directional irregular waves. The numerical approach is based on a three dimensional source distribution method to the wave exciting forces, a far-field method to the steady drift forces and a spectral analysis technique of directional waves. The spectral description for the linear system of TLP in the frequency domain is sufficient to completely define the wave exciting forces and steady drift forces. This is because both the wave inputs and the outputs are stationary Gaussian random process of which the statistical properties in the amplitude domain are well known. Numerical results of steady drift forces are compared with the experimental and numerical ones, which are obtained in the literature. The results of comparison confirmed the validity of the proposed approach.

The maneuvering equations of motion are derived to express the motion of a ship. The wave forces in the time domain analysis are generated from the frequency transfer function calculated by 3-D source distribution method. The linear wave forces whose periods are equal to those of incident waves and the nonlinear wave forces that make long period drift forces are computed for the simulation. The consideration of irregular waves and nonlinear wave force effects on the slew motion are carried on the analyzing the motion of ship in the regular and irregular waves.

High waves and storm surges due to tropical cyclones cause great damage in coastal areas; therefore, accurately predicting storm surges and high waves before a typhoon strike is crucial. Meteorological forcing is an important factor for predicting these catastrophic events. This study presents an improved methodology for determining accurate meteorological forcing. Typhoon Chaba, which caused serious damage to the south coast of South Korea in 2016, was selected as a case study. In this study, symmetric and asymmetric parametric vortex models based on the typhoon track forecasted by the Model for Prediction Across Scales (MPAS) were used to create meteorological forcing and were compared with those models based on the best track. The meteorological fields were also created by blending the meteorological field from the symmetric / asymmetric parametric vortex models based on the MPAS-forecasted typhoon track and the meteorological field generated by the forecasting model (MPAS). This meteorological forcing data was then used given to two-way coupled tide-surge-wave models: Advanced CIRCulation (ADCIRC) and Simulating Waves Nearshore (SWAN). The modeled storm surges and waves correlated well with the observations and were comparable to those predicted using the best track. Based on our analysis, we propose using the parametric model with the MPAS-forecasted track, the meteorological field from the same forecasting model, and blending them to improve storm surge and wave prediction.

A rudder roll control system is developed and analyzed to control the yawing and rolling motion of ship in irregular waves. The 4-DOF maneuvering equations of motion are derived to carry out the simulation of the motion of a ship and the wave forces are considered as the external forces of a ship in the simulation. The wave forces in the time domain analysis are generated from the frequency transfer function calculated by 3-D source distribution method. The rudder roll control system is developed by linear combination of PD rudder controllers of yawing and rolling motion. Rudder rate speed and Schilling rudder are considered to increase the roll reduction efficiency.

The very large floating structure which can be used for as airport may be as large as several kilometer long and wide. The first order wave forces as well as wave drift forces are very important forces on such a very large floating structures. In the present study, the time simulation of motion responses for dolphin-moored VLFS in waves is presented. The hydrodynamic coefficients and wave forces involved in the equations are obtained from a three-dimensional panel method in the frequency domain. The horizontal drift forces and mooring forces for dolphin systems are taken into account. As for numerical example, time domain analyses are carried out for a VLFS(Phase I) in irregular wave condition.

The time simulation of slow drift motions of moored FPSO in waves is presented. The equation of motion based on Cummin's theory of impulse responses are employed, and are consisted of horizontal plane motions such as surge, sway and yaw. The added mass, wave damping coefficients, first order wave exciting forces and the second order wave drift forces involved in the equations are obtained from three-dimensional panel method in the frequency domain. The mooring lines are modeled as quasi-static catenary cable. As a numerical example, time domain analyses are carried out for a box-type FPSO in long crest irregular wave condition.

The slew motion of a single point moored ship by the external forces is considered to control itself. The maneuvering equations of motion are derived to express the motion of a ship. The wind forces and the wave forces are considered as the external forces of the single point moored ship in the simulation. The wave forces in the time domain analysis are generated from the frequency transfer function calculated by 3-D source distribution method. The wind forces are used the results from OCIMF(1994). To control the slew motion, the bow thruster and the bridle anchoring with 2nd anchor are used in the numerical simulation.

Course keeping ability of ships under wave are analyzed with wave. The simulation with three degrees of freedom is developed and 3-D source distribution method is applied to get wave force for the simulation. The simulation is conducted with the restriction of maximum rudder angle and time delay of control and regular wave and irregular wave are considered as the source of external forces. Simulations with ships which have different maneuverability with tuned hydrodynamic coefficients are developed to assess the variation of the course keeping ability depending on the ship's maneuvering characteristics. The course Keeping ability is evaluated by comparison of distance while the ships are simulated with autopilot control.
