Numerical Analysis and Modeling of a Semi-Submersible Floating Wind Turbine Platform with Large Amplitude Motions Subjected to Extreme Wind and Wave Loads Open
The objective of this study is to predict the large amplitude motions of floating wind turbine platforms and to emphasize the significance of nonlinear forces when these platforms are subjected to combined wind and wave loads. The analysis…

A Framework of Numerically Evaluating a Maneuvering Vessel in Waves Open
Maneuvering in waves is a hydrodynamic phenomenon that involves both seakeeping and maneuvering problems. The environmental loads, such as waves, wind, and current, have a significant impact on a maneuvering vessel, which makes it more com…

An optimization framework of a parametric Octabuoy semi-submersible design Open
An optimization framework using genetic algorithms has been developed towards an automated parametric optimization of the Octabuoy semi-submersible design. Compared with deep draft production units, the design of the shallow draught Octabu…

Development of a Blended Time-Domain Program for Predicting the Motions of a Wave Energy Structure Open
Traditional linear time-domain analysis is used widely for predicting the motions of floating structures. When it comes to a wave energy structure, which usually is subjected to larger relative (to their geometric dimensions) wave and moti…

Suppression of Irregular Frequency Effect in Hydrodynamic Problems and Free-Surface Singularity Treatment Open
Multibody operations are routinely performed in offshore activities, for example, the floating liquefied natural gas (FLNG) and liquefied natural gas carrier (LNGC) side-by-side offloading case. To understand the phenomenon occurring insid…
