Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Large floating structures may be utilized as an offshore port facility, a floating terminal for oil and gas exploitation, large infrastructures such as airpot, etc. It is a technical challenge posed on engineers to fulfill the accountability by showing the behavior of the large floating structures in a very rare event. The event may include extreme waves that could occur once in several thousands years and Tsunami. In this research, nonlinear hydrodynamic models such as particle method and finite element method (FEM) using nonlinear element are used in a conbined manner to clarify the behavior of the large floating structures under the rare event. The method developed in this study was also verified by using a series of tank tests using scaled models. Behavior of large floating buoy moored by tensioned tether, hydro-elastoplastic behavior of large floating structure and collapse behavior of large floating wind turibines are investigated.
