The paper deals with the dynamics of floating systems (FPSO units) moored in deep water in the presence of currents. The offloading operation is carried out in a tandem arrangement from the FPSO to a Shuttle ship of lesser capacity. According to the classical theory of dynamic systems, a study of the behavior of floating units is performed by determining the equilibrium position and then analyzing the stability around this position. The time domain analysis is also used to compare the results. This procedure is extended to the case of systems in a spread mooring configuration and with turret.

Semi-submersible plays an important role in ocean oil and gas exploitation. This paper carried out some researches for the dynamic positioning system (DPS) of a deep water semi- submersible. Mathematic modal was made, and a special program was created with M-language for the time-domain dynamic analysis of the dynamic positioning system of the deep water semi-submersible, on basis of the mathematic modal. PID control strategy, kalman filtering theory and optimal thrust allocation method were used in the analysis. Simulation result indicated the DPS of this platform is safe and efficient.

This paper is devoted on the application of the computational method for calculating the transient electromagnetic (EM) near-field (NF) radiated by electronic structures from the frequency-dependent data for the arbitrary wave form perturbations i(t). The method proposed is based on the fast Fourier transform (FFT). The different steps illustrating the principle of the method is described. It is composed of three successive steps: the synchronization of the input excitation spectrum I(f) and the given frequency data H0(f), the convolution of the two inputs data and then, the determination of the time-domain emissions H(t). The feasibility of the method is verified with standard EM 3D simulations. In addition to this method, an extraction technique of the time-dependent z-transversal EM NF component Xz(t) from the frequency-dependent x- and y- longitudinal components Hx(f) and Hy(f) is also presented. This technique is based on the conjugation of the plane wave spectrum (PWS) transform and FFT. The feasibility of the method is verified with a set of dipole radiations. The method introduced in this paper is particularly useful for the investigation of time-domain emissions for EMC applications by considering transient EM interferences (EMIs).

The experimental wave paddle signal is unknown to the numerical modellers in many cases. This makes it quite challenging to numerically reproduce the time history of free surface elevation for irregular waves. In the present work, a numerical investigation is performed using a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) based model to validate and investigate a non-iterative free surface reconstruction technique for irregular waves. In the current approach, the free surface is reconstructed by spectrally composing the irregular wave train as a summation of the harmonic components coupled with the Dirichlet inlet boundary condition. The verification is performed by comparing the numerically reconstructed free surface elevation with theoretical input waves. The applicability of the present approach to generate irregular waves by reconstructing the free surface is investigated for different coastal and marine engineering problems. A numerical analysis is performed to validate the free surface reconstruction approach to generate breaking irregular waves over a submerged bar. The wave amplitudes, wave frequencies and wave phases are modelled with good accuracy in the time-domain during the higher-order energy transfers and complex processes like wave shoaling, wave breaking and wave decomposition. The present approach to generate irregular waves is also employed to model steep irregular waves in deep water. The free surface reconstruction method is able to simulate the irregular free surface profiles in deep water with low root mean square errors and high correlation coefficients. Furthermore, the irregular wave forces on a monopile are investigated in the time-domain. The amplitudes and phases of the force signal under irregular waves generated by using the current technique are modelled accurately in the time-domain. The proposed approach to numerically reproduce the free surface elevation in the time-domain provides promising and accurate results for all the benchmark cases.

The Time Domain

Abstract The coupling of independent structural dynamic and inviscid aerodynamic models, in the time domain, is considered. The accuracy and CPU requirements of the two common approaches, namely ‘weak’ and ‘strong’ coupling procedures, are investigated. It is found that the strong coupling scheme is more accurate than the weak coupling approach, and only for large real time-steps is the strong coupling scheme more expensive. The computational method developed is used to perform transonic aeroelastic and aeroservoelastic calculations in the time domain, and used to compute stability (flutter) boundaries of 2D wing sections. A control law is implemented within the aeroelastic solver to investigate active means of flutter suppression via control surface motion. Comparisons of open and closed loop calculations show that the control law can successfully suppress the flutter and results in a significant increase in the allowable speed index in the transonic regime. The effect of structural nonlinearity, in the form of hinge axis backlash is also investigated. The effect is found to be destabilising, but the control law is shown to still alleviate the destabilising effect.

Taking a deep-water semi-submersible drilling platform and its mooring system which will be used in South China Sea area as an example, the motion responses of this platform in the frequency and time domains are analysed. In the frequency domain, the three-dimensional potential flow theory is emploied to calculate, the response function of six degrees of freedom and some hydrodynamic parameters, such as additional mass and additional damping. In the time domain, the non-linear time-domain coupling analytical method is used to calculate the motion responses of this platform under the action of wind and waves. Then according to the time series of motion response, the influence of the Jonswap spectrum’s parameters, including wave height and peak factors on the platform’s heave response is analysed.This numerical simulation results provides an reference for the target platform’s actual construction.
