Articulated tower platforms due to its compliant nature are more susceptible to the dynamic effects of wind than conventional fixed platforms. Dynamic response analysis of a double hinged articulated tower excited by low frequency wind forces with random waves is presented in this paper. The exposed super structure of the platform, housing the drilling and production facilities is subjected to mean and fluctuating wind loads, while the submerged portion is acted upon by wind driven waves. The fluctuating component of the wind velocity is modeled by Emil Simiu's spectrum, while the sea state is characterized by Pierson-Moskowitz spectrum. Nonlinearities in the system due to drag force, added mass, variable submergence and instantaneous tower orientation are considered in the analysis. To account for these nonlinearities, an implicit time integration scheme (Newmark's-${\beta}$) has been employed which solves the equation of motion in an iterative fashion and response time histories are obtained. The power spectra obtained from random response time histories show the significance of low frequency responses.

해수면 상태에 따른 고주파 양상태 해수면 음파산란 채널 측정 실험은 2020년 4월 거제 내만해역에서 수행되었으며 산란이론을 기반으로 한 모의결과와 비교하였다. 신호는 중심주파수 128 kHz, 대역폭 32 kHz의 선형 주파수 변조 신호를 이용하였다. 파고부이를 통해 측정된 해수면 거칠기로부터 해수면 파수 스펙트럼을 계산하였고 산란이론인 Small Slope Approximation(SSA)에 적용하여 해수면 거칠기에 의한 산란강도를 추정하였다. 또한 실험 당시 풍속을 이용하여 해수면 부근 공기방울층 음파산란을 고려하여 산란강도를 계산하였다. 모의된 산란강도를 이용하여 해수면 산란 채널 세기 임펄스 응답을 모의하였고, 해수면 파수 스펙트럼과 공기방울층 산란에 따른 모의결과를 측정치와 비교, 분석하였다.

Dependence of the standard deviation of wind direction fluctuations, ${\sigma}_{\theta}$, on atmospheric stability, averaging time and topography were analysed with the data measured at three sites, Youngjongdo beach of the Yellow Sea, Chuncheon basin and Doam-Dam valley. The results show that the mean value of ${\sigma}_{\theta}$ is large in complex terrain, the Doam-Dam site. It is notable that the large value of ${\sigma}_{\theta}$ at night is associated with the low wind speed and the strong stable condition. In order to study the long-period fluctuations of the wind direction, ${\sigma}_{\theta}$ for longer than 10 minutes averaging time was further analysed using the data obtained at the Chuncheon basin. At the averaging time shorter than 60 minutes, larger ${\sigma}_{\theta}$ is associated with longer averaging time in the strong stable condition. However, ${\sigma}_{\theta}$ was not affected significantly by wind speed and averaging time in neutral conditions. The results of the spectrum analysis for the time series data of wind direction showed that low-frequency fluctuations ranging from 10 to 60 minutes were dominated at the Chuncheon basin in strong stable condition.
