In this paper, a compliant buoy mooring system of a floating cylindrical structure in shallow water depth is studied experimentally. The compliant buoy mooring system consists of four buoys, vertical mooring legs and horizontal mooring lines. A series of model test were carried out at KRISO ocean engineering basin for various mooring parameters; line length, pretension of mooring leg and mooring layouts and environmental conditions; regular and irregular waves combined with current and wind. The mooring line tensions and 6-DOF motions of the floating structure were measured using water-proof load cells and 3 CCD camera system. The results of a series of model tests were discussed on nonlinear motion behaviors of the floating structure and characterisitics of cumulative distributions of mooring line peak tensions.

선형발전기가 연결된 부이의 수직운동에 대한 시간영역 해석을 수행하여 얻은 시계열 자료를 가지고 선형발전기를 설계하고 전기에너지 출력특성 및 효율에 대해 살펴보았다. 1차 변환장치로 원통형 부이를 선택하였고, 2차 변환장치로 양측식 할박(Halbach) 배열 영구자석 가동자와 철심형 슬롯리스(Slotless) 고정자로 구성된 선형발전기를 사용하였다. 시간영역에서 부이의 수직운동 속도와 파랑하중을 입력자료로 직선형 영구자석 발전기가 설계되었고, 설계된 발전기는 규칙파 조건에서 유한요소 해석법을 적용하여 발전특성해석을 수행함으로써, 그 타당성이 입증되었다. 또한 불규칙파 조건에서 합리적이고 빠른 해석을 위해, 등가회로법을 적용하여 발전특성 해석을 수행하였는데, 그 결과 역시 매우 타당함을 확인하였다.

The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the safety under extreme environmental conditions and the dynamic safety under service environment conditions, of oceanographic buoy mooring systems consisting of a variety of materials, including chain, wire rope, nylon rope, and polypropylene rope. For the static safety assessment of a mooring system, after the calculation of external forces and the division of a mooring system into finite elements, the numerical integral was conducted to yield the elemental static tension until satisfying the geometrical convergence condition. To evaluate the dynamic safety, various processes were considered, including data collection about the anticipated areas for mooring, a determination of the parameters for the interpretation, the interpretation of the dynamic characteristics based on an analytic equation that takes into account the heave motion effect of a buoy hull and a mooring system, and a fatigue analysis of the linear cumulative damage. Based on the analysis results, a supplementary proposal for a wire rope that has a fracture in an actual mooring area was established.

부이의 수직운동으로부터 파랑에너지를 추출하는 파력발전기의 추출효율을 극대화하기 위하여 Sheng et al.(2015)이 제안한 래칭 제어기법을 적용하였다. 래칭 제어기법은 부이를 구속하는 래칭 시간을 조절하여 추출효율을 높이는 위상제어 방법이다. 래칭 제어기법을 규칙파중 수직운동하는 부이에 적용한 결과, 공진조건을 만족하지 않았음에도 불구하고 부이의 운동속도와 추출파워는 크게 증가하였다. 부이의 수직운동으로부터 파랑에너지를 흡수하는 파력발전기에 이러한 래칭 제어기법을 도입하면 추출파워의 증가와 더불어 부이의 흘수와 PTO감쇠력을 줄일 수 있어 제작비용을 크게 낮출 수 있다.

The numerical investigation of obliquely incident wave interactions with fully submerged dual buoy/porous-membrane floating breakwaters placed in parallel with spacing is studied based on linear potential theory and Darcy's law. The numerical solutions are obtained by using a discrete-membrane dynamic model and second-kind modified Bessel function distribution over the entire boundaries of fluid regions. First, numerical solutions for an idealized dual submerged system without buoys are obtained. Second, a more practical dual submerged system with membrane tension provided by buoys at its tops is investigated by the multi-domain boundary element method particularly devised for dual buoy/porous-membrane problems with gaps. The velocity potentials of wave motion are coupled with porous-membrane deformation, and solved simultaneously since the boundary condition on porous-membrane is not known in advance. The effects of varying permeability on membranes and wave characteristics are discussed for the optimum design parameters of systems previously studied. The inclusion of permeability on membrane eliminates the resonances that aggravate the breakwater performance. The system is highly efficient when waves generated by the buoys and membranes were mutually canceled and its energy at resonance frequency dissipates through fine pores on membranes.

This paper proposes a multi absorbing wave energy converter design, in which a hydrostatic transmission is used to transfer wave energy to electric energy. The most important feature of this system is its combination of the pressure coupling principle with the use of a hydraulic accumulator to eliminate the effects of wave power fluctuation; this maintains a constant speed of the hydraulic motor. Tilt motion of a floating buoy was employed as the power take-off mechanism. Furthermore, a PID controller was designed to carry out the speed control of the hydraulic motor. The design offers some advantages such as extending the life of the hydraulic components, increasing the amount of energy harvested, and stabilizing the output speed.

Acoustic and pressure type seabed installed wave sensors have advantage in observing long period infra-gravity wave and tsunami, while buoy type wave gauges which measure acceleration of the moored buoy motion are not able to detect long period waves. That's why most of the Japanese coastal wave observation sensors are seabed installed typed ones. Nationwide Japanese coastal wave observation systems with seabed installed sensors are gradually clarifying long-period tsunami profiles and infra-gravity wave characteristics (Nagai.et.al., 1996, 1997,2000,2002a,2002b).

This paper deals with the resonant type of a WEC (wave energy converter) and the determination method of its geometric parameters which were obtained to construct the robust and optimal structure, respectively. In detail, the optimization problem is formulated with the constraints composed of the response surfaces which stand for the resonance period(heave, pitch) and the meta center height of the buoy. Use of a signal-to-noise ratio calculated from normalized multi-objective results with the weight factor can help to select the robust design level. In order to get the sample data set, the motion responses of the power buoy were analyzed using the BEM (boundary element method)-based commercial code. Also, the optimization result is compared with a robust design for a feasibility study. Finally, the power efficiency of the WEC with the optimum design variables is estimated as the captured wave ratio resulting from absorbed power which mainly related to PTO (power take off) damping. It could be said that the resultant of the WEC design is the economical optimal design which satisfy the given constraints.

본 연구에서는 부유식 해상관측시설의 파랑중 운동응답 및 표류력 해석을 위해 Green 적분방정식에 기초한 3차원 수치해법을 개발하였다. 본 방법에서는 소오스분포와 더브렛분포를 함께 사용하였으며, 판요소로는 3각형 요소와 4각형 요소를 병행 사용하였다. 불규칙파수 현상을 제거하기 위해 개량된 적분방정식 해법을 적용하였으며, 시간평균 표류력의 계산은 원인별 성분파악이 가능한 물체표면 직접적분법을 사용하였다. 개발된 전산 프로그램의 검증을 위해 비교자료가 있는 구형 부유체에 대한 계산이 수행되었고, 이에 대한 계산을 통해 개발된 프로그램으로부터 신뢰성있는 결과를 얻을 수 있음을 확인하였다. 실제시설에 대한 적용예로서 직경 2.6m 흘수 3.77m인 원통형 해상관측용 부이에 대한 계산을 수행하여 그 운동특성 및 표류력 특성을 고찰하였다. 운동응답 해석결과는 공진주파수를 설치해역의 파랑 탁월주파수 범위밖에 놓이도록 부이의 형상과 치수를 조정하는데 활용할 수 있고, 또 이들 계산을 통해 댐퍼 등의 설치효과도 미리 예측할 수 있다. 또한, 계산된 표류력은 황천중에서 계류계에 걸리는 최대하중을 예측하는데 이용할 수 있으므로 계류계의 설계에 있어 중요한 기초자료로 활용된다. 본 수치해법은 원칙적으로 대상 부유체의 형상에 제약을 받지 않으므로 향후 다양한 형상의 부유식 해상관측 시설들의 설계 및 설치$\cdot$운용에 폭 넓게 적용할 수 있다.
