A two-dimensional floating body with a moon pool under forced heave motion, including a piston mode, is numerically simulated. A dynamic CFD simulation is carried out to thoroughly investigate the flow field around a two-dimensional moon pool over various heaving frequencies. The numerical results are compared with experimental results and a linear potential program by Faltinsen et al. (2007). The effects of vortex shedding and viscosity are investigated by changing the corner shapes of the floating body and solving the Euler equation, respectively. The flow fields, including the velocity, vorticity, and pressure fields, are discussed to understand and determine the mechanisms of wave elevation, damping, and sway force.

The aim of this study is to develop a simplified formula for added mass coefficients of a two-dimensional floating body moving vertically in a finite water depth. Floating bodies with various sectional areas may represent simplified structure sections transformed by Lewis form, and can be used for floating body motion analysis using strip theory or another relevant method. Since the added mass of a floating body varies with wave frequency and water depth, a correction factor is developed to take these effects into account. Using a developed two-dimensional numerical wave tank technique, the reference added masses are calculated for various water depths at high frequency, and used them as basis values to formulate the correction factors. To verify the effectiveness of the developed formulas, the predicted heave added mass coefficients for various wetted body sections and wave frequencies are compared with numerical results from the Numerical Wave Tank (NWT) technique.

An experimental study on the reduction of vertical motion of floating body using floating-submerged body interaction was performed in a two-dimensional wave channel. The system consisting of a floating and submerged body that only move vertically was modeled. This experiment was designed based on the results of theoretical analysis of two-body interaction. The results showed a tendency to significant reduction of heave RAO of floating body due to submerged body. Various connection line stiffness and dimension of the submerged body were applied to investigate the effect of two-body interaction on the vertical motion of the bodies, Heave RAOs of the floating-submerged body were compared with those of single body. From the comparison study, we obtained an optimum condition of connection line and dimension of submerged body for maximum heave reduction at the resonant period of single body.

A moon-pool is a vertical well in a floating barge, drilling ship, or offshore support vessel. In this study, numerical simulation of two-dimensional moon-pool flaw coupled with a ship's motion in waves is carried out using a particle method, the so-called MPS method. The particle method, which is recognized as one of the gridless methods, was developed to investigate nonlinear free-surface motions interacting with structures. The method is more feasible and effective than convectional grid methods in order to solve a flaw field with complicated boundary shapes.

In this paper, a three dimensional singularity distribution method is applied to investigate the hydrodynamic interactions between two barges floating on a free surface of a deep water. The results show that the hydrodynamic interaction forces are important in the calculation responses of two barges floating in each other's vicinity. Furthermore the trends of hydrodynamic forces due to the motion of body itself are different from those of a single barged, and the motions of the seaward barge can sometimes exceed those of the seaward barged.

The motion of passively floating body, whose keel can have a contact with seabed soil, is under the consideration. The body simulates ice ridge floating in shallow water. The force of seabed soil reaction applied to the grounded keel is estimated taking into account soil embankment near the grounded keel. Two-dimensional trajectories of body motion, the shape of the grooves in seabed and the height of soil embankment are calculated when the motion of the body is caused by semidiurnal $M_2$ tide. The influence of wave amplitude and bottom slope on the shapes of body trajectory and the grooves are analyzed.

Fluid-body interaction analysis of floating body with six degree-of-freedom motion is presented. In this study, three-dimensional incompressible Navier-Stokes equations are employed as a governing equation. The numerical method is based on a finite-volume approach on a cartesian grid together with a fractional-step method. To represent the body motion, the immersed boundary method for direct forcing is employed. In order to simulate the coupled six degree-of-freedom motion, Euler's equations based on rigid body dynamics are utilized. To represent the complex body shape, level-set based algorithm is utilized. In order to describe the free surface motion, the volume of fluid method utilizing the tangent of hyperbola for interface capturing scheme is employed. This study showed three different continuums(air, water and body) are simultaneously simulated by newly developed code. To demonstrate the applicability of the current approach, two different problems(dam-breaking with stationary obstacle and water entry) are simulated and all results are validated.

영역별로 속도포텐셜을 정의하고 부방파제 측면의 가상 경계에서 유체운동의 질량속과 운동량속의 연속조건으로부터 미지계수를 구하는 속도포텐셜 접속법을 이용하여 천해역에 기인장의 상태로 계유된 직사각형 부방파제의 운동을 해석하였다. 본 방법에서는 정도 등(1972)이 수중계유물제 운동해석시 사용한 방법을 부유체 계유로 수정하여 전체유체영역을 입사파 영역, 투과파 영역 및 부방파제 저면 영역의 3개 부영역으로 구분하였다. 또한, 전도 등(1972)이 무시한 기인장된 계유라인에 의한 복원력을 선형 스프링으로 모형화하였다. 본 방법을 수리모형실험 결과와 비교ㆍ분석한 결과 정확도가 향상되었으며, 이를 이용하여 부방파제의 흘수 및 폭의 변화에 따른 발파 성능을 조사하였다.

This study is to develop the simplified formulae for added mass coefficient of a 2-D floating body with a semi-circle section in a finite water depth. The semi-circle floating body may represent a simplified midship section transformed by Lewis form, which can be used for the ship motion analysis by strip theory. Since the added mass coefficient varies with motion frequencies and sea bottom effect, the correction factor representing the effect of water depth and frequencies is developed for accurate prediction of added mass. Using a two-dimensional numerical wave tank (NWT) technique based on the boundary element method (BEM) including sea bottom boundary the reference values of added mass are calculated to develop the correction factor. For verification and effectiveness of the formulae, the predicted added mass coefficients for various frequencies and water depth ratios are compared with the calculated values from NWT technique.

This paper is concerned with the application of perturbation method to the dynamic analysis of space structure floating in space. In dealing with the dynamics of space structure, the use of Lagrange's equations of motion in terms of quasi-coordinates were suggested to derive hybrid equations of motion for rigid-body translations and elastic vibrations. The perturbation method is then applied to the hybrid equations of motion along with discretization by means of admissible functions. This process is very tiresome. Recently, a new approach that applies the perturbation method to the Lagrange's equations directly was proposed and applied to the two-dimensional floating structure. In this paper, we propose the application of the perturbation method to the Lagrange's equations of motion in terms of quasi-coordinates. Theoretical derivations show the efficacy of the proposed method.
