The main objective of the present research was investigating the effects of a floating wave barrier installed in front of an offshore jacket structure on the wave height, base shear, and overturning moment. A jacket model with the height of 4.55 m was fabricated and tested in the 402 m-long wave flume of NIMALA marine laboratory. The jacket was tested at the water depth of 4 m subjected to the random waves with a JONSWAP energy spectrum. Three input wave heights were chosen for the tests: 20 cm, 23 cm, and 28 cm. Two different cross sections with the same area were selected for the wave barrier: square and rhombus. Results showed that the average decrease in the jacket's base shear due to the presence of a floating wave barrier with square and rhombus cross section was 24.67% and 34.29%, respectively. The use of wave barriers with square and rhombus cross sections also resulted in 19.78% and 33.11% decrease in the jacket's overturning moment, respectively. Hence, it can be concluded that a floating wave barrier can significantly reduce the base shear and overturning moment in an offshore jacket structure; and a rhombus cross section is more effective than an equivalent square section.

본 연구에서는 원전어항에서 채용하고 있는 강제 부방파제에 비해 소요재료량의 변화가 크지 않은 범위에서 전후연직판의 위치와 형식의 변화 및 수평판의 부착 유무에 따른 여러 형식의 부방파제에 의한 투과율과 반사율을 Green 함수법으로부터 계산한 결과에 기초하여, 원전어항의 강제 부방파제보다 단주기파 및 장주기파를 보다 효과적으로 제어할 수 있는 새로운 형식의 부방파제를 검토하였다. 이로부터 연직커튼판 하부에 수평판을 부착한 형태의 부방파제가 파랑제어기능이 우수한 것으로 판명되었고, 이는 원전어항 부방파제보다 파랑제어기능이 탁월하다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 또한, 본체에 부착된 전후연직판 및 수평판의 크기와 간격을 조절함으로써 적합한 투과파를 얻을 수 있다는 것도 알 수 있었다.

본 연구에서는 원전부방파제 및 통영부방파제의 단면을 기본형으로 하여 그들의 소요재료량에 비해 변화가 작은 범위내에서 연직커튼판의 모양과 위치의 변화 및 수평판의 부착 유무에 따른 여러 가지 형식의 부방파제를 검토하여 원전부방파제보다 장주기측에서 파랑제어성능이 우수한 신형식부방파제를 고안 및 제안하였다. 그리고, 본 연구의 신형식부방파제를 마산시 원전항에 원전부방파제의 대신에 적용한 경우 보다 장주기파랑을 효과적으로 제어하여 항내전달파고를 저감시키고, 따라서 항내정온도를 향상시킬 수 있다는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

The wave interactions with fully submerged and floating dual buoy/vertical porous membrane breakwaters has been investigated in experimentally to validate the developed theory and numerical method in the previous study, in which multi-domain hydro-elastic formulation was carried out in the context of linear wave-body interaction theory and Darcy's law. It is found that the experimental results agrees well with the numerical prediction. Transmission and reflection can be quite reduced simultaneously especially in the region of long waves. The properly tuned system to incoming waves can effectively dissipate wave energy and also offset each other between incident and scattered waves using its hydro-elasticity and geometry.

A numerical study on the hydrodynamic properties of a floating flexible breakwater consisting of triple vertical porous membrane structures attached to a floating rigid pontoon restrained by moorings is carried out in the context of two-dimensional linear wave-flexible body interaction theory. The tensions in the triple membranes are achieved by hanging a clump weight from its lower ends. The clump weight is also restrained properly by moorings. The dynamic behavior of the breakwater was described through an appropriate Green function, and the fluid multi-domains are incorporated into the boundary integral equation. Numerical results are presented which illustrate the effects of the various wave and structural parameters on the efficiency of the breakwater as a barrier to wave action. It is found that the wave reflection and transmission properties of the structures depends strongly on the membrane length taking major fraction of water column, the magnitude of tensions on membrane achieving by the clump weight, proper mooring types and stiffness, the permeability on the membrane dissipating wave energy.

A surface-piercing barrier model is presented for understanding morphological development in the sheltered region and investigating the main factors causing the severe accumulation. Surface-piercing structures like vertical barriers, surface docks and floating breakwaters are recently favored from the point of view of a marine scenario since they do not in general partition the natural sea. The numerical solutions are compared with experimental data on wave profiles and morphological change rates within a rectangular harbor of a constant depth protected by surface-piercing thin breakwaters as a simplified problem. Our numerical study involves several modules: 1) wave dynamics analyzed by a plane-wave approximation, 2) suspended sediment transport combined with sediment erosion-deposition model, and 3) concurrent morphological changes. Scattering waves are solved by using a plane wave method without inclusion of evanescent modes. Evanescent modes are only considered in predicting the reflection ratio against the vertical barrier and energy losses due to vortex shedding from the lower edge of plate are taken into account. A new relationship to relate the near-bed concentration to the depth-mean concentration is presented by analyzing the vertical structure of concentration. The numerical solutions were also compared with experimental data on morphological changes within a rectangular harbor of constant water depth. Through the numerical experiments, the vortex-induced flow appears to be not ignorable in predicting the morphological changes although the immersion depth of a plate is not deep.

고조방파제는 폭풍해일이나, 대조시 창조류로부터 내부 해역을 보호하기 위하여 설계된 특수한 형태의 수문 구조물로, 홍수 방지 벽, 방조제 및 다른 구조물로 구성된다. 평상시 고조방파제는 해수 소통을 허용하지만, 폭풍해일이 예상되면 폐쇄된다. 폐쇄시키는 다양한 방법 중 본 연구에서는 이태리 모세프로젝트에 적용한 것과 같은 부유 플랩형 고조방파제를 마산만에 적용할 경우, 폭풍해일 및 파랑이 작용할 때의 고조방파제 거동특성을 3차원 유동해석프로그램인 FLOW-3D를 이용하여 살펴보았다. 수치해석결과, 고조차 2 m인 상태에서 파고 3 m 조건에서도 고조방파제로서의 기능을 발휘할 수 있는 것으로 평가되었다.

The analysis of the floating offshore wind turbine platform is based on the procedures provided by the IEC including the International Classification Society, which recommends the analysis in the time domain. But time-domain simulation requires a lot of time and resources to solve tens of thousands of DLCs. This acts as a barrier in terms of floating structure development. For final verification, it requires very precise analysis in the time domain, but from an initial design point of view, a simplified verification procedure to predict the quantity of materials quickly and achieve relatively accurate results is crucial. In this study, a structural design procedure using a design wave applied in the oil and gas industries is presented combined with a conservative turbine load. With this method, a quick design spiral can be rotated, and it is possible to review FOWTs of various shapes and sizes. Consequently, a KRISO Semi-Submersible FOWT platform was developed using a simplified design procedure in frequency-domain analysis.

부유 플랩형 고조방파제의 파랑 반사 및 전달 특성을 평가하기 위하여 수리실험을 실시하였다. 수리실험에 사용된 부유 플랩형 고조방파제는 해저 지중에 설치된 기초구조와 이에 힌지로 연결된 부유 구조체로 구성된다. 36종의 규칙파와 4종의 불규칙파 조건에 대하여 파랑의 반사, 전달, 회전각 등을 분석하였다. 파랑 반사 및 전달 성능을 제고하기 위한 방안의 하나로 일정 크기의 판을 부유 구조체에 부착하는 방안에 대하여 검토하였다. 수리실험 결과, 항내측에 판을 부착하는 경우는 효과가 미미하고, 외해측에 판을 부착하면 반사파와 전달파를 동시에 저감시킬 수 있는 것으로 평가되었다.

For electronic paper displays using electrophoresis, the response time and reflectivity of the image panel fabricated by filtering are analyzed. For the filtering process, a square wave and ramp wave are applied to white charged particles with a unique q/m value. We divide the sample panels into #1 to #4 according to the applied waveform in the filtering process. Step waves comprising two steps are used to drive the panel; therefore, we divide the driving conditions into D1~D4. The applied voltage at the first stage of the half cycle of the driving waveform moves the charged particles attached via the image force from the electrode, and the applied voltage at the second stage moves the floating charged particles by detaching. As mentioned, four types of driving conditions (D1 to D4) classified according to the half cycle of the driving waveform are applied to the samples #1 to #4), which are classified according to four types of filtering process. When driving condition D1 is applied to the four types of sample panels, the rise time of #1 is 1.59s, #2 is 1.706s, #3 is 1.853s, and #4 is 1.235s, resulting in #4 being relatively faster compared with other sample panels, and showing the same trend in other driving conditions. As a result, we confirm that applying the driving condition D1 causes abrupt movement of the white charged particles injected into the cell. When the same driving waveform (D1) is applied to each sample, reflectivities of 32.1% for #1, 31.4% for #2, 27.9% for #3, and 63.4% for #4 are measured. From the experiment, we confirm that the driving condition D1 (1s of 3.5 V, 9s of 3.0 V) and ramp wave #4 in filtering are desirable for good reflectivity and response time. Our research is expected to contribute to the improvement of the filtering process and optimization of the driving waveform.
