Numerical Study of Interaction of Focused Wave with JIP Spar Platform in Current
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, the focused wave and current interaction with a moored JIP Spar platform are investigated using a time-domain higher order boundary element method (THOBEM). Embodied by a linear superposition of finite cosine waves, the focused wave can be efficiently simulated through adjusting the initial phase of cosine wave and adding corrected wave. The finite element method is used to simulate the distortion and tension of the mooring system. The great effects of current and mean drift forces on the position and amplitude of the focus peak value of hydrodynamic characteristics are investigated.

Numerical modeling of wave run-up along columns of semi-submersible platforms
Wave run-up is one of the most important and effective parameters in designing semi-submersible platforms. Besides unforeseen effects on the movements and response of the platform, wave run up can also cause slamming forces to be exerted on the lower deck of the platform. Therefore, at the first stages of this plan, before running tests on the model of the platform, numerical methods are usuall...

Many innovative floating offshore structures have been proposed for cost effectiveness of oil and gas exploration and production in water depths exceeding one thousand meters in recent years. One such type of platform is the offshore floating Spar platform. The Spar platform is modelled as a rigid body with six degrees-of-freedom, connected to the sea floor by multicomponent catenary mooring li...
