报告摘要: The application and development of an in-house transient three-dimensional numerical computational code ITU-WAVE which is based on panel method, potential theory and Neumann-Kelvin linearisation will be presented for the prediction of the hydrodynamics and dynamics characteristics of mono- and multi-hull floating bodies with and without forward speed. The time histories of the unsteady motions in ambient incident waves are directly presented with Impulse Response Functions (IRF) whilst the memory effects due to free surface are taken into account by the use of convolution integral in time domain. The steady state perturbation potentials for first-order steady forces of wave-resistance, sinkage force and trim moment are solved as steady-state limit of the surge radiation IRF. The numerical prediction of second-order mean forces which can be computed from quadratic product of first-order quantities is presented using the near-field method based on the direct pressure integration over floating body in time domain. The hydrodynamic and structural parts are fully coupled through modal analysis for hydroelastic analysis in which Euler-Bernoulli beam is used for the structural part with analytically defined mode-shapes. A stiff structure is then presented assuming that contributions of rigid body modes are much bigger than elastic modes. A discrete control of latching is used to increase the absorbed power in the case of off-resonance conditions with isolated or array wave energy converters. The prediction of hydrodynamic forces on mooring lines and aerodynamic forces on floating offshore wind turbines will be also presented. The validation of ITU-WAVE numerical results against analytical, other numerical and experimental results will be presented.
