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.

문풀은 해저케이블선, 해저탐사선, 생산용 부선, 드릴쉽과 같은 여러 종류의 선박에 설비되어 해상에서 각 작업에 필요한 장비의 진수 및 작업공간으로 활용되고 있다. 이러한 문풀내 자유수면의 유동은 정수중 부유체의 이동으로 인한 것과 작업중인 부유체에 작용하는 입사파에 의해 기인하는 것으로 알려져 있다. 본 연구에서는 입사파에 의한 문풀내 유동 특성을 분석하기 위하여 다양한 해상상태, 즉 서로 다른 파고와 파장에서의 자유수면의 변화와 문풀에 작용하는 유체력 계산을 CFD에 의하여 수행하였다. 수치 계산 결과 문풀내 수면 상승 및 유체력은 파고 및 파장에 의해 크게 영향을 받고 이것은 보오텍스와 같은 비선형 현상에 의한 것임을 확인할 수 있었다.

To establish a floating offshore wind turbine simulation model, a tension leg platform is added to an onshore wind turbine. The wind load is calculated by using meteorological administration data and a power law that defines the wind velocity according to the height from the sea surface. The wind load is applied to the blade and wind tower at a regular distance. The relative Morison equation is employed to generate the wave load. The rated rotor speed (18 rpm) is applied to the hub as a motion. The dynamic behavior of a 2-MW floating offshore wind turbine subjected to the wave excitation and wind load is analyzed. The flexible effects of the wind tower and the blade are analyzed. The flexible model of the wind tower and blade is established to examine the natural frequency of the TLP-type offshore wind turbine. To study the effect of the flexible tower and blade on the floating offshore wind turbine, we modeled the flexible tower model and flexible tower-blade model and compared it with a rigid model.

As increasing demands for a floating structure expanded from offshore industry facilities to living facilities, it has emerged that necessity of techniques to reduce motions of a floating structure. This study present a floating structure with porosity on the outer surface of the floater. Under each regular and irregular wave, responses of the floater was investigated in frequency domain. The proposed structure is composed of inner and outer floaters, which are connected to each other and the outer wall is perforated, and the heave and the pitch of floaters with different perforation rates (0~30%) were compared with at both the center and the edge. The results showed that pitch responses can be decreased by increasing of perforation rate of the floater. Comparing with responses of the non-perforated floater, those of the proposed floating structure were reduced to above 10% and 2%, respectively for regular and irregular wave conditions.

This paper describes evaluation procedures and experimental results for the estimation of Cumulative Distribution Functions (CDF) giving best-fit to the sample data in the Probability based risk Evaluation Techniques (PET) which is to assess the risks of a small-sized sea floater. The CDF in the PET is to provide the reference values of risk acceptance criteria which are to evaluate the risk level of the floater and, it can be estimated from sample data sets of motion response functions such as Roll, Pitch and Heave in the floater model. Using Maximum Likelihood Estimates and with the eight kinds of regulated distribution functions, the evaluation tests for the CDF having maximum likelihood to the sample data are carried out in this work. Throughout goodness-of-fit tests to the distribution functions, it is shown that the Beta distribution is best-fit to the Roll and Pitch sample data with smallest averaged probability errors $\bar{\delta}(0{\leq}\bar{\delta}{\leq}1.0)$ of 0.024 and 0.022, respectively and, Gamma distribution is best-fit to the Heave sample data with smallest $\bar{\delta}$ of 0.027. The proposed method in this paper can be expected to adopt in various application areas estimating best-fit distributions to the sample data.

When Coming alongside the shallow water or narrow pier, they apply sea area with small mooring facilities and Floating matter because of the diversity of ships and limitation and effective in cutting expenses. However, when ships, applying Small mooring facilities and Floating matter, come alongside, there can be some impulse by waves between the Floating things and ships which possibly leads to mass disaster. Therefore, there should be forecasts and analysis of the movement caused by waves. On this Study, it introduces the composition and principles of the developed system provides the base of the movement traits through measuring 3-D exercise data and acceleration of the Mooring and Floating matters.

Demand for leisure facilities such as mooring facilities for berthing leisure vessels and floating pensions based on floating bodies is increasing owing to the rapid growth of the population and related industries for marine leisure activities. Owing to its relatively light weight as a fluid, inclination is easily generated by waves and surcharges flowing to the coast, resulting in frequent safety accidents because of the low stability. As a solution to this problem, a motion reduction device for floating bodies is proposed in this study. The device (motion reduction device based on the air pressure dif erence) was attached to a floating body and the effect was analyzed by comparing the results with those of a floating body without motion reduction. The effect analysis was further analyzed using a computer analysis test, and the method for increasing the stability of the floating body was studied, and its the effect was verified. Based on the analysis of the test results, the stability of the floating body increased with a motion damping device is higher than that of the floating body without a motion reducing device as the wave momentum reduces, owing to the air pressure difference. Therefore it was concluded that the use of such a device for reducing motion a floating body is useful not only for non-powered ships but also for powered and semi-submersible ships, and further research should be conducted by applying it to various fields.

Recent studies to develop Very Large Floating Structure(VLFS) has shown that the construction procedure of the structure needs to acquire precast concrete module connection system using prestressing. However, the loads occurring on water are complex combinations of various condition, so the safe and stable performance of the module joints and bonding materials are key to the success of the construction. Therefore, micro-silica mixed aqua-epoxy development was introduced in Part 1 using a bonding material developed in this study. The performance of the micro-silica mixed aqua-epoxy(MSAE) applied joint of concrete module specimens connected by prestressing tendon was evaluated to verify the usability and safety of the material. RC beam, spliced beam connected by prestressing tendon and MSAE, and continuous prestressed concrete beam were tested for their initial cracking and maximum loads as well as cracking procedure and pattern. The results showed that the MSAE can control the stress concentration effect of the shear key and the crack propagation, and the maximum load capacity of MSAE joint specimens are only 5% less than that of continuous RC specimen. The details of the study are discussed in detail in the paper.
