Taking the cylindrical float of the floating fence of a floating litter collection device as the research object, based on the shallow immersion characteristics of the cylindrical float, the Morison equation is modified, and the interaction between regular waves and the partially immersed horizontal cylindrical float is discussed in combination with scale model test. The results show that the modified Morison equation can accurately predict the wave force of the horizontal cylindrical float and reveal the influence of amplitude, immersion depth and period on the wave force of the cylindrical float. For partially immersed cylindrical floats, the wave force increases with the increase in wave height and decays with the increase in period. The positive value distribution of the wave force is larger than that of the negative direction, and the difference between the positive and negative directions is mainly affected by the immersion depth.

In this study, the dynamic responses of a riser under the combined excitation of internal waves and background currents are studied. A modified Taylor-Goldstein equation is used to calculate the internal waves vertical structures when background currents exist. By imposing rigid-lid boundary condition, the equation is solved by Thompson-Haskell method. Based on the principle of virtual work, a nonlinear differential equation for riser motions is established combined with the modified Morison formula. Using Newmark-${\beta}$ method, the motion equation is solved in time domain. It is observed that the internal waves without currents exhibit dominated effect on dynamic response of a riser in the first two modes. With the effects of the background currents, the motion displacements of the riser will increase significantly in both cases that wave goes along and against the currents. This phenomenon is most obviously observed at the motions in the first mode.

In this study, the hydrodynamic characteristics of various types of jack-up legs for a wind turbine installation vessel were analyzed. Using the modified Morison equation, the wave and current excitation forces on the jack-up legs were calculated. A modal analysis was performed to predict the dynamic responses for various types of jack-up legs. The Newmark-beta time integration scheme was used to solve the equation of motion in waves in the time domain. The maximum displacement and maximum bending stress were computed for four different types of legs, and their results were compared to select an optimum leg type. Finally, a six-leg jack-up rig with the selected optimal legs was modeled, and its natural period and hydrodynamic behaviors were evaluated.

1차 자유도를 갖는 해양구조물을 선정하여 long crested, stationary, Gaussian random waves가 구조물의 동적응답 스펙트럼에 미치는 영향에 대해 규명하였다. 해수면 부근에서 주기적으로 수면위로 부상하는 연직부재를 고려하기 위해 hybrid Morison equation을 제안했고 이 방정식을 기초로 파력을 계산했다. 주기적으로 수면위로 부상하는 효과를 고려한 결과 동적응답 스펙트럼은 감소하였으며 고차 응당성분이 발생했다. 또한 동적응답 스펙트럼은 주파수가 증가할수록 감소하는 경향을 보였으며 이는 해수면 위로 주기적으로 부상하는 현상을 고려할 때 발생하는 고차응답성분 때문인 것으로 사료된다.

Tension leg platforms (TLP's) are highly nonlinear due to large structural displacements and fluid motion-structure interaction. Therefore, the nonlinear dynamic response of TLP's under hydrodynamic wave loading is necessary to determine their deformations and dynamic characteristics. In this paper, a numerical study using modified Morison Equation was carried out in the time domain to investigate the influence of nonlinearities due to hydrodynamic forces and the coupling effect between all degrees of freedom on the dynamic behavior of a TLP. The stiffness of the TLP was derived from a combination of hydrostatic restoring forces and restoring forces due to cables and the nonlinear equations of motion were solved utilizing Newmark's beta integration scheme. The effect of wave characteristics was considered.

In this study an improved design method for the traditional A-type(or V-type) offshore template platform system was proposed to mitigate the vibration induced by the marine environmental loadings and the strong ground motions of earthquakes. A newly developed material model was combined into the structural system and then a nonlinear dynamic analysis in the time domain was carried out. The analysis was focused on the displacement and rotation induced by the input wave forces and ground motions, and the mitigation effect for these responses was evaluated when the viscoelastic damping devices were applied. The wave forces exerted on the offshore structures are based on Stokes fifth-order wave theory and Morison equation for small body. A step by step integration method was modified and used in the nonlinear analysis. It was found that the new design approach enhanced with viscoelastic dampers was efficient on the vibration mitigation for the structural system subjected to both the wave motion and the strong ground motion.

해저지하자원개발시 사용되는 riser의 파랑하중에 대한 구조해석방법에 대하여 연구하였다. 본 논문에서 비교 연구한 방법들은 규칙파를 이용한 정력학적해법, 규칙파 및 불규칙파를 이용한 시간영역에서의 동력학적해법과 두가지의 다른 선형화기법을 이용한 주파수영역에서의 동적해법이다. 구조해석은 길이가 다른 두 개의 Riser를 예로 하여 수행되었으며, 이때 유한요소법에 의한 구조모형이 사용되었다. 연구결과 종래의 규칙파에 의한 정력학적해법은 가장 정확한 불규칙파에 의한 동력학적해법에 비하면, 부재의 최대응력은 대소 크게 예측하지만, Riser 운영상 중요한 인자인 하단각도를 상당히 작게 산정하는 경향을 보여 사용에 주의를 요함을 보였다.

수중 케이블의 동적 거동은 비선형 거동을 보이게 되는데 특히 기하하적 비선형성에 크게 영향을 받는다. 또한, 유체의 흐름으로 인하여 동적 거동의 해석은 더욱 복잡하고 어려워지기 때문에 해석적인 접근 방법에는 한계가 있다. 본 연구에서는 탄성 현수선 케이블요소에 동수력을 고려할 수 있게 하였다. 즉, 동수력을 받는 3차원 탄성 현수선 케이블를 정식화하고, 정적 및 동적 해석을 수행할 수 있는 유한요소 방법을 제시하였다. 동수력은 수정된 Morison 방정식을 이용하여 산정하였다. 제시된 방법으로 구한 수중케이블에 관한 동적 거동을 파악하려 하였으며, 정박 또는 예인에 사용하는 수중케이블의 경우 조류의 방향 및 케이블의 경사각에 따른 동적거동의 변화를 알아볼 수 있다.

The tension leg platform (TLP) is a vertically moored structure with excess buoyancy. The TLP is regarded as moored structure in horizontal plan, while inherit stiffness of fixed platform in vertical plane. In this paper, a numerical study using modified Morison equation was carried out in the time domain to investigate the influence of nonlinearities due to hydrodynamic forces and the coupling effect between surge, sway, heave, roll, pitch and yaw degrees of freedom on the dynamic behavior of TLP's. The stiffness of the TLP was derived from a combination of hydrostatic restoring forces and restoring forces due to cables and the nonlinear equations of motion were solved utilizing Newmark's beta integration scheme. The effect of tethers length and wave characteristics such as wave period and wave height on the response of TLP's was evaluated. Only uni-directional waves in the surge direction was considered in the analysis. It was found that for short wave periods (i.e. 10 sec.), the surge response consisted of small amplitude oscillations about a displaced position that is significantly dependent on tether length, wave height; whereas for longer wave periods, the surge response showed high amplitude oscillations about that is significantly dependent on tether length.

Based on laboratory experiments and numerical simulations, the scale effect of Internal Solitary Wave (ISW) loads on spar platforms is investigated. First, the waveforms, loads, and torques on the spar model at a laboratory obtained by the experiments and simulations agree well with each other. Then, a prototype spar platform is simulated numerically to elucidate the scale effect. The scale effect for the horizontal forces is significant owing to the viscosity effect, whereas it is insignificant and can be neglected for the vertical forces. From the similarity point of view, the Froude number was the same for the scaled model and its prototype, while the Reynolds number increased significantly. The results show that the Morison equation with the same set of drag and inertia coefficients is not applicable to estimate the ISW loads for both the prototype and laboratory scale model. The coefficients should be modified to account for the scale effect. In conclusion, the dimensionless vertical forces on experimental models can be applied to the prototype, but the dimensionless horizontal forces of the experimental model are larger than those of the prototype, which will lead to overestimation of the horizontal force of the prototype if direct conversion is implemented.
