This paper presents an integrated analysis about dynamic performance of a Floating Offshore Wind Turbine (FOWT) OC4 DeepCwind with semi-submersible platform under real sea environment. The emphasis of this paper is to investigate how the wave mean drift force and slow-drift wave excitation load (Quadratic transfer function, namely QTF) influence the platform motions, mooring line tension and tower base bending moments. Second order potential theory is being used for computing linear and nonlinear wave effects, including first order wave force, mean drift force and slow-drift excitation loads. Morison model is utilized to account the viscous effect from fluid. This approach considers floating wind turbine as an integrated coupled system. Two time-domain solvers, SIMA (SIMO/RIFLEX/AERODYN) and FAST are being chosen to analyze the global response of the integrated coupled system under small, moderate and severe sea condition. Results show that second order mean drift force and slow-drift force will drift the floater away along wave propagation direction. At the same time, slow-drift force has larger effect than mean drift force. Also tension of the mooring line at fairlead and tower base loads are increased accordingly in all sea conditions under investigation.

This paper reports the result of an investigation into wave propagation in orthotropic laminated piezoelectric cylindrical shells in hydrothermal environment. A dynamic model of laminated piezoelectric cylindrical shell is derived based on Cooper-Naghdi shell theory considering the effects of transverse shear and rotary inertia. The wave characteristics curves are obtained by solving an eigenvalue problem. The effects of layer numbers, thickness of piezoelectric layers, thermal loads and humid loads on the wave characteristics curves are discussed through numerical results. The solving method presented in the paper is validated by the solution of a classical elastic shell non-containing the effects of transverse shear and rotary inertia. The new features of the wave propagation in laminated piezoelectric cylindrical shells with various laminated material, layer numbers and thickness in hydrothermal environment and some meaningful and interesting results in this paper are helpful for the application and the design of the ultrasonic inspection techniques and structural health monitoring.

부유식 해양구조물은 설계수명 동안 조우할 수 있는 가장 극심한 환경하중을 고려하여 설계되어야 한다. 본 연구의 해석 대상인 부유식 파력-해상풍력 복합 발전시스템에 가장 큰 영향을 미치는 환경하중은 파랑하중이다. 파랑하중의 주요 매개변수는 파장, 파고, 파향이며, 이들의 조합에 따라 구조물의 거동특성에 미치는 영향은 판이하다. 이에 따라, 대상 해역이 가지는 파랑의 특성과 구조물이 가지는 응답 특성을 기반으로 극한 응답을 주는 파랑인자를 탐색하는 과정이 필요하다. 즉, 환경조건 범위에서 발생할 수 있는 모든 파랑조건을 탐색하여 최대 응답을 발생시키는 등가설계파를 추출해야 한다. 이는 특정 하중의 최대 설계 응답과 동일한 응답 수준을 주는 규칙파를 탐색하는 일련의 과정을 통해 계산 가능하다. 본 연구에서는 부유식 파력-해상풍력 복합 발전시스템에 작용하는 특정 하중 인자에 대해 등가설계파를 산정하였으며, 전체구조해석에 활용하였다.

초대형 부유식 구조물의 초기 설계단계에서 부체구조물과 상부구조물을 분리하여 해석하는 것이 일반적이며, 부체의 탄성응답해석의 변형모드를 이용하여 상부구조물의 주각부에 강제수직변위를 입력하여 파랑하중에 의한 영향을 고려한다. 하지만 이와 같은 해석법의 경우 각 지점에 변위하중을 입력하는데 어려움이 있다. 본 논문에서는 파랑하중을 지점변위하중으로 직접 입력하지 않고 고정하중과 적재하중에 의한 강도설계 결과를 이용하여 파랑하중의 영향을 증폭계수의 형태로 도출하는 근사 실용정적해석법을 제안한다. 이 연구에서는 4경간 3층 구조물을 예제로 하여 파랑하중의 진폭과 주기, 보 경간을 매개변수로 한 증폭계수의 추이를 분석하였으며 보 모멘트의 증폭계수는 특정회귀방정식으로 나타내었다.

In general the loads due to ocean wave are considered as main design parameters governing the global structural safety of VLFS (Very Large Floating Structure). In order to predict design wave loads accurately, hydro-elastic analysis must be conducted considering the initial global flexural rigidity of VLFS. However, in order to determine the structural scantling of major members (deck, bottom, side panels and longitudinal / transverse BHD etc.), static load and design wave loads must be given as explicit form generally. Therefore in order to determine a proper structural arrangement and scantlings of VLFS at initial design stage, both calculations of structural scantling and hydro-elastic analysis for wave conditions must be conducted iteratively and the convergence of their results must be checked. On this paper, based on the case design of a 500×300 m size's floating marina resort, the details of structural design technique using hydro-elastic analysis are explained and discussed. At first, the environmental conditions and the system requirements of the design of marina resort are described. The scantling formulas for the major members of pontoon type VLFS are proposed from the local and global design points of view. Considering the design wave loads as well as static design loads, the structural safety is checked iteratively.

본 연구에서는 2D 조파수조를 통해 수행된 모형시험결과를 기반으로 원형실린더에 분포하는 파랑충격압력을 시간에 따라 계측하고 이를 CFD해석 결과와 비교하였다. 전산유체역학 해석을 통해 파랑충격력에 직접평가법에 관한 효용성을 확인할 수 있었고, 실험으로부터 구한 파랑충격 시계열 데이터를 그대로 원형단면을 갖는 실제 해양구조물의 부재에 적용하였다. 실린더에 분포하는 변위 및 응력의 특성과 특이점이 바뀌는 것을 확인하였고 실제 시계열을 적용하는 것이 해양구조물의 강도평가를 보다 정확하게 평가할 수 있음을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한, 선수부에 요구되는 외판의 최소선급규정에 따른 두께 경험식들을 분석하여 적용하고자 하였다. 동일한 재료 물성치를 갖는 강재에 관해 선수외판에 요구되는 구조물의 최소두께와 원형단면 부재에 요구되는 최소두께를 비교·분석하였고 이를 통해 NORSOK standard에 제시되어 있는 구조물의 손상기준을 활용하여 허용 두께치를 추정하고자 하였다. 특히 해양구조물의 갑판충격력(wave in deck)의 경우 이와 관련된 경험식이나 최소두께 요구사항들이 정립되어 있지 않기 때문에 본 연구를 통해 파랑충격력에 따라 요구되는 판재의 최소두께를 제안하고자 하였다.

Response of harbor structure to environmental loads such as wave load, impact load, ship's contacting load, is a fundamental factor in designing of the structure's optimal configuration. In this paper, typical environmental loads against coastal structures are investigated for designing of the optimal harbor structure. Loads to be considered here are wave load, impact load and contacting load due to ship mooring. Statistical analysis for several harbor structure types under the corresponding loads is carried out, followed by investigation of effect of individual environmental load. Based on these, the optimal configuration for the harbor structure is obtained after considerable engineering process. Estimation of contacting load of the ship is suggested using effective energy concepts for the load, and analysis of structural behavior is done for the optimal designing of the structure in the particular load. A guideline for the design process of the harbor structure is established, and safety of the structure is examined by proposed scheme. For verification of the analytical approach, various steel-piled coastal structures and caissons are chosen and relevant structural analyses are carried out using the Finite Element Methods combined with MIDAS/GTS and ANSYS code. It is found using the Morison equation that impact load cannot be a major load in the typical harbor structure compared with the original wave load, and that configuration shape of the structure may play an important role in consideration of the response criteria.

This paper presents a numerical prediction of the transient hydraulic loads acting on the tubes and external supports of a pressurized water reactor (PWR) steam generator (SG) during blowdown following a sudden feedwater line break (FWLB). A simplified SG model was used to easily demonstrate the prediction. The blowdown discharge flow was treated as a flashing flow to realistically simulate the transient flow fields inside the SG and the connected broken feedwater pipe. The effects of the SG initial pressure or the broken feedwater pipe length on the intensities or magnitudes of transient hydraulic loads were investigated. Then predictions of the decompression pressure wave-induced impulsive pressure differential loads on SG tubes and the transient blowdown loads on SG external supports were demonstrated and the general aspects of transient responses of such transient hydraulic loads to the FWLB were discussed.

The small-waterplane-area-twin-hull(SWATH) ship has been recognized as a promising high performance ship because of her superior seakeeping characteristics and large deck area for various operations compared to the conventional monohull ship. significant advances in analytical technics for the prediction of the ship motions, wave loads and structural responses, structural fatigue and its prediction, and hull vibration for ship motions, wave loads and structural responses, structural fatigue and its prediction, and hull vibration for SWATH ship have been much developed during the last twenty years. Based on these developments in technology an integrated computational procedures for prediction wave loads and structural responses can be used to get a accurate results. But the major problem of SWATH ship's structural design is the accurate prediction of structural responses by the maximum critical loads likely to be experienced during the life of SWATH. To get a easier and safer computational procedures and the analytical approach for determining the accurate structural responses, a case study has been presented through the project experienced.

A ship in waves is suffered from the various wave loads that comes from its motion throughout its life. Because these loads are dynamic, the analysis of a ship structure must be considered as the dynamic problem precisely. In the rationally-based design, the dynamic structural analysis is carried out using dynamic wave loads provided from the results of the ship motion calculation as a rigid body. This method is based on the linear theory assumed low wave height and small amplitude of motion. But at the rough sea condition, high wave height, compared with ship's depth, induce the large ship motion, so the ship section configuration under waterline is rapidly changed at each time. This results in a non-linear problem. Considering above situation in this paper, a strength analysis method is introduced for the hull girder among waves considering non-linear hydrodynamic forces. This paper evaluates the overall or primary level of the ship structural dynamic loading and dynamic response provided from the non-linear wave forces, and bottom flare impact forces by momentum slamming theory. For numerical calculation a ship is idealized as a hollow thin-walled box beam using thin walled beam theory and the finite element method is used. This method applied to a 40,000 ton double hull tanker and attention is paid to the influence of the response of the ship's speed, wave length and wave height compared with the linear strip theory.
