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.

For a moored body on the sea surface, incident waves with narrow-banded spectra excite the body oscillations of short and long periods. Since the period of slow oscillations can be as long as the natural period of the moored body in horizontal modes, resonance can occur and resulting large motions may cause significant strains in mooring cables. By using the perturbation method of multiple scales, the large slow motion can be analyzed without solving any second-order potentials explicitly. To the leading order, the flows associated with the fast and slow motions interact only parametrically and thus they can be studied separately. It is found that the slow motion strongly depends on the mooring stiffness. In particular, if the moring stiffness is considerably weak compared to the body inertia, the slow motion is highly amplified near resonance. It is also shown that the slow motion is associated with the generation of long waves.

수면상에 떠있는 2차원 물체에 작용하는 시간평균 표류력 및 표류모오멘트를 비점성 선형 포텐셜 이론을 사용하여 계산하는 방법에 대하여 검토하였다. 부유체 접수면상의 압력을 직접적분하여 구한 수평방향 표류력이 특정주파수 부근에서 음의 값을 보이고 있다. 이는 무한원방에서의 에너지 보전방법에 의한 표류력이 항상 양의 값을 취한다는 기존 이론과 상이하다. 본 논문에서, 이러한 차이가 부유체의 횡요 및 상하동요에 기인한 복원력의 성분과 횡요와의 연성효과에 의하여 발생하였음을 규명하였다. 이는 횡요가 있는 경우, 표류력을 산출하는 기존의 무한원방 방법에 결함이 있음을 보이고 있다. 이에 반하여 기존의 접수면압력 직접적방법은 부유체에 작용하는 시간평균 표류력 및 표류모오멘트를 모든 주파수에 대하여 정확하게 산출한다고 결론지울 수 있다.

We examined the temporal characteristics of the oceanic eddy diffusion at 5 coastal regions of Korea by measuring the separation distances of multiple drifters released simultaneously at the same by the GPS and Decca transponder system. The observed variance of separation distance, for the time scales from minutes to hours, is proportional to t/SUP m/ with scaling exponent m between 1.2 and 2.0. The observed Lagrangian trajectories of drifters show fractal characteristics instead of random walk or Brown motion. As an effort toward a development of a realistic model of the oceanic eddy diffusion, we simulated the Lagrangian trajectories of drifters by fractional Brown motion (FBM) model. The observed variances of drifter separations can be generated by the FBM process provided the Hurst exponent is the same as the observed one. We further showed that the observed power law in the variance of drifter separations cannot be simulated with an ordinary Brown motion or random walk process.

The anchor is laid on the seabed, and the main engine is working against incident environmental loads in a typhoon. As the main engine is broken Mum in the storm, the anchor chain is cut and the vessel drifts. Although a ship is moored by two-point mooring lines to maintain her position, it has crashed into a rock because of a typhoon, resulting in a possible accidental oil spillage. In this paper, we studied maintenance of a ship's position, which is analyzed based on the slow motion maneuvering equations considering wave, current, and wind. To estimate wave loads, the direct integration method is employed. The current forces are calculated, using MMG (Mathematical Modeling Group). Th two-point mooring forces are quasi-statistically evaluated, using the catenary equation. Th coefficients of wind forces are modeled from Isherwood's empirical data, and the variation of wind speed is estimated by wind spectrum. The nonlinear motions of a two-point moored ship are simulated, considering wave, current, and wind load, in specific domain of time.

A moored body in the sea is subjected to second-order wave forces as well as to linear oscillatory ones. The second-order farces contain slowly-varying components, of which the characteristic frequency can be as low as the natural frequency of horizontal motions of the moored body. As a consequence, the slowly-varying force can excite unexpectedly large horizontal excursion of the body, which may cause a serious damage on the mooring system. In design analysis of Turret-type mooring system which is one of the interesting mooring systems for a floating body. the slowly-varying drift forces and the transient motion of the system during weathervaning are very important. In this paper the slowly-varying drift forces were calculated by using the Quadratic Transfer Function with considering the second order free-wave contributions. Additionaly the transient surge motion of the moored body was simulated with including the roll of the time-memory effect. In this simulation the spring constant of the spread Turret mooring system is updated at every time step for considering the nonlinear effect.

연속시간모형은 시간의 흐름에 대응되는 자본자산의 운동의 성질과 시간의 흐름에 따라 형성되는 자본자산의 가격을 동시적으로 파악할 수 있는 것이 큰 장점이다. 연속시간 확률미분방정식을 구성하는 표류함수와 확산함수가 폐형해나 해석적 형태로 존재하지 않는 경우가 대부분이다. 여기에서 모수추정의 어려움이 발생한다. 전이 확률밀도함수의 인지 또는 발견의 어려움과 표류함수와 확산함수의 적분 불가능성은 최대가능도법의 사용을 어렵게 만든다. 여기에서 모수방법 보다는 비모수방법을 통하여 연속 확률 미분방정식을 추정하려는 성향이 존재한다. 밀도를 모르면 표본적률을 사용하여 모수를 추정할 수 있으므로 일반화 적률법이 연속시간 확률미분방정식의 모수 추정과 검정에 사용되고 있다. 전이밀도의 값을 시뮬레이션을 통하여 얻는 마코브연쇄 몬테카를로 방법, 전이밀도를 무한소 생성작용소를 통하여 얻는 방법, 비 모수방법, 여러 종류의 전개에 의하여 얻은 표류함수와 확산함수의 전이밀도에 대한 최대가능도법 등 여러 종류의 연속시간 확률미분방정식의 실증분석에서 사용되고 있다. 이 논문에서는 연속시간 확률미분방정식의 실증분석 방법들을 정리하는데 목적이 있다. 이일균(2004)은 이 논문과의 자매논문으로 시뮬레이션에 의한 확률미분방정식의 추정을 다루고 있어 시뮬레이션방법은 그 논문에 미룬다.

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 horizonal plane -surge, sway and yaw. The added mass coefficients, wave damping coefficients, first order wave exciting forces and the second order wave drift forces involved in the equations are obtained from a three-dimensional panel method in the frequency domain. The mooring lines are modeled quasistatically as catenary for chains and touchdown. As for numerical example, time domain analyses are carried out for a box-type FPSO in long crest irregular wave condition.

A numerical analysis for large amplitude motions of submerged circular cylinder is presented. The method is based on potential theory and two-dimensional motions in regular harmonic waves are tented as an initial value problem. The fully nonlinear free surface boundary condition is assumed in an inner domain and this solution is matched along an assumed an assumed common boundary to a linear solution in outer domain. Calculations of the large amplitude motion of a submerged circular cylinder are directly simulated in time domain. It is shown that relative motion between the body and fluid particle gives a significant effect on the lift and drift motions.

Wave drift forces which are small in magnitudes compared to the first order wave exciting forces can cause very large motion of a vessel in waves. In this paper a theoretical and experimental analysis is made of the mean and slowly varying wave dirft forces on the semi-submersible platform. Theoretical calculations are performed by using near field method with three dimensional diffraction theory and model tests are carried out in regular and irregular waves with a 1/60 semi model. Test results are compared with theoretical calculations and the mooring spring effects in the test are discussed.
