The interaction between a sloshing liquid damper (SLD) tank and a rectangular pontoon was investigated under the assumption of the linear potential theory. The eigenfunction expansion method was used not only for the sloshing problem in the SLD tank but also for analyzing the motion responses of a rectangular pontoon in waves. If the frictional damping due to the viscosity of the SLD tank was ignored, the effect of the SLD appeared to be an added mass in the coupled equation of motion. The installation of the SLD tank had a greater effect on the roll motion response than the sway and heave motion of the pontoon. One resonance peak for rolling motion showed up in the case of a frozen liquid in the SLD tank. However, if liquid motion in the SLD tank was allowed, two peaks appeared around the first natural frequency of the fluid in the SLD tank. In particular, the peak value located in the low-frequency region had a relatively large value, and the peak frequency located in the high-frequency region moved into the high-frequency region as the depth of the liquid in the tank increased.

A numerical investigation was made to examine characteristics of rectangular pontoon type floating breakwaters in oblique waves. Sway and heave wave exciting forces, roll moment acting on the floating breakwater and three motion reponses decrease as the incident wave angle increases for the most of the wave ranges. There exists a minimum wave transmission coefficient which is a function of wave frequency. In short wave range wave transmission coefficient increases as the incident wave angle increases. In long wave range, however, wave transmission coefficient decreases as the wave incident angle increases.

본 연구에서는 수평 감쇠판을 부착한 폰툰형 부유식 구조물의 운동 저감 효과를 분석하기 위해 수리모형 실험을 수행하였다. 일반 직사각형 폰툰형 부유식 구조물 및 수평 감쇠판이 부착된 폰툰형 구조물을 1/20의 축척을 적용하여 제작하였고, 규칙파 및 불규칙파 조건에서의 운동 응답을 계측하였다. 실험체별 16개 파랑 조건에 대한 계측 결과의 비교로부터 직사각형 폰툰형 부유체에 수평 감쇠판을 설치한 경우 수평 감쇠판이 설치되지 않는 조건 대비 응답이 평균 5 ~ 10 % 감소시킬 수 있음을 확인하였다.

파랑하중의 입사각의 변화가 직사각형 콘크리트 플로팅 함체 위에 있는 3층 철골 모멘트 연성골조의 모멘트에 미치는 영향을 알아보기 위하여, 파도 주기 5초부터 15초까지 2초 간격으로 동적 유체해석을 수행하였다. 길이방향에 대하여 입사각이 $0^{\circ}$, $30^{\circ}$, $60^{\circ}$, $90^{\circ}$로 증가함에 따라 RAO-Roll에 의한 영향이 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 파압에 의하여 입사각이 $0^{\circ}$인 경우 길이방향의 골조 모멘트가 크게 증가하였으며, 입사각이 증가함에 따라 파압에 의한 모멘트가 감소하는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 함체의 피칭과 롤링에 의하여 발생되는 가속도 성분에 의하여 상부 철골 모멘트 연성 골조의 모멘트를 산정하였으며, 입사각이 $90^{\circ}$로 작용한 경우에 모멘트의 증가량이 입사각 $0^{\circ}$의 경우보다 크게 나타났다.

본 논문은 2차원 유한요소모델을 이용한 부유식 방파제의 파랑차단특성에 대한 수치적 연구이다. 유체영역은 선형화된 2차원유동으로 가정하고, 부유식 방파제의 성능을 분석하기 위하여 유한요소법을 적용하였다. 상자형 부유식 방파제와 두 개의 상자가 일정한 간격으로 양측 방파제를 대상으로 파랑차단효과 대한 수치해석을 실시하였다. 긴 주기 파랑의 차단효과를 증대시키기 위한 방안 중의 하나로 연직판을 부체 하단에 양측에 부착한 경우에 대한 수치실험을 실시하였다.

In this paper, trapezoid sections and prominence sections were examined to improve the performance of floating breakwater in long waves. The linear potential theory is used and the boundary element method with a matching boundary is employed for numerical computation. The effects of the side slope of the trapezoid section and the geometry ratio of the prominence section on the floating breakwater were examined. It was found that trapezoid sections show lower transmission coefficients than the rectangular sections in the long wave range. In prominence sections the size of the sides are more important than the size of the top. Proper choices of the pontoon type geometry may move the local minimum point of the wave transmission coefficient toward the longer wave ranges and improve the performance of the floating breakwater in the long wave range for a given wave period.

An optimization framework using genetic algorithms has been developed towards an automated parametric optimization of the Octabuoy semi-submersible design. Compared with deep draft production units, the design of the shallow draught Octabuoy semi-submersible provides a floating system with improved motion characteristics, being less susceptible to vortex induced motions in loop currents. The relatively large water plane area results in a decreased natural heave period, which locates the floater in the wave period range with more wave energy. Considering this, the hull design of Octabuoy semi-submersible has been optimized to improve the floater's motion performance. The optimization has been conducted with optimized parameters of the pontoon's rectangular cross section area, the cone shaped section's height and diameter. Through numerical evaluations of both the 1st-order and 2nd-order hydrodynamics, the optimization through genetic algorithms has been proven to provide improved hydrodynamic performance, in terms of heave and pitch motions. This work presents a meaningful framework as a reference in the process of floating system's design.
