The hydrodynamic interaction characteristics between multiple floating bodies of semisubmersible type are examined to present the basic data for the design of huge offshore structures supported by a large number of the floating bodies in multi-directional irregular waves. The numerical approach is based on a combination of a three-dimensional source distribution method, the wave interaction theory and the spectral analysis method. The effects of wave directionality on the wave exciting forces acting on multiple floating bodies in multi-directional irregular waves also have been pointed out.

To design very large ships, such as very large drillships, we have to estimate the hydroelastic responses of the very large ships in waves. A numerical procedure is described for estimating the hydroelastic responses of very large ships advancing with slow speed in waves. The developed numerical approach is based on a combination of the three-dimensional source distribution method and the finite element method, including fluid-structure interaction by regarding a very large ship as many hull elements connected with elastic beam elements. Numerical results are compared with experimental and numerical ones obtained in the literature. The results of comparison confirmed the validity of the proposed approach.

When a large ship is advancing in waves, ship undergoes the hydroelastic response, which has influences on structural stability and the fatigue destruction etc. of the ship. Therefore, to predict accurate hydroelastic response, it is necessary to analyze hydroelastic response including fluid-structure interaction. In this research, a ship is divided into many hull elements to calculate the fluid forces and wave exciting forces on each elements using three-dimensional source distribution method. The calculated fluid forces and wave exciting forces are assigned to nodes of hull elements. The neighbor nodes are connected with elastic beam elements. We analyzed hydroelastic responses, and those are formulated by using finite element method. Particularly, to estimate the influence of forward speed on the hydroelastic responses, we use two different methods : Full Hull Rotation Method(FHRM) and Sectional Hull Rotation Method(SHRM).

A numerical procedure is described for predicting the motion and structural responses of tension leg platforms (TLPs) in waves. The developed numerical approach is based on combination of a three dimensional source distribution method and the dynamic response analysis method, in which the superstructure of TLPs is assumed flexible instead of the rigid body assumption used in usual two-step analysis method, proposed by Yoshida et. al. .The hydrodynamic interactions among TLP members, such as columms and pontoons, are included in the motion and structural analyses. Numerical results are compared with the experimental and numerical ones, which are obtained in the literature, of the motion and structural responses of a TLP in waves. The results of comparison confirmed the validity of the proposed approach.

The dynamic response characteristics of a floating ocean city are examined for presenting the basic data for the design of huge offshore structures supported by a large number of floating bodies in waves. The numerical approach which is accurate in linear system is based on combination of a three dimensional source distribution method, wave interaction theory and the finite element method of using the space frame element. The hydrodynamic interactions among the floating bodies are taken into account in their exact form within the context of linear potential theory in the motion and structural analysis. The method is applicable to an arbitrary number of three dimensional bodies having any individual body geometries and geometrical arrangement with the restriction that the circumscribed, bottom-mounted. Imaginary vertical cylinder for each body does not contain any part of the other body. The validity of this procedure was verified by comparing with experimental results obtained in the literature.

To design a very large floating structure, such as a floating airport, we have to estimate the hydroelastic responses of a very large floating structure (VLFS) exactly. We developed the numerical method for estimating the hydroelastic responses of the VLFS. The developed numerical approach is based on a combination of the three-dimensional source distribution method, the wave interaction theory and the finite element method for structurally treating the space frame elements. The Numerical results of the hydroelastic responses and steady drift forces of a somisubmersible type offshore structure, which is supported by the 33(3 by 11) floating bodies, with various bending rigidities are illustrated.

The dynamic response characteristics of Tension Leg Platforms(TLPs) in waves are examined for presenting the basic data for design of TLPs. The numerical approach is based on a combination of the three dimensional source distribution method and the dynamic response analysis method, in which the superstructure of TLP is assumed to be flexible instead of rigid. Restoring forces by hydrostatic pressure on the submerged surface of a TLP have been accurately calculated by excluding the assumption of the slender body theory. The hydrodynamic interactions among TLP members, such as columns and pontoons, and the structural damping are included in the motion and structural analysis. Numerical results are compared with the experimental ones, which are obtained in the literature, concerning the motion and tension responses of a TLP in waves. The results of comparison confirmed the validity of the proposed approach.

This paper compared with the hydrodynamic interference acting on the semi-submersible element model with 1-lowerhull and 2-columns. In this case, calculation are applying the strip method and 3-dimensional source distribution method. As the wave frequency and the distance between increase, the influence effects of parts upon each other decrease and approach the results calculated by using the strip method. Thus, it can be prepared for the investigation of new practical method of investigation of new practical method of hydrodynamic forces acting on huge structures.
