In this paper, the fluid-structure interaction of large floating structures has been rigorously analyzed and the shear effect on the structural deformation has been investigated in oblique waves. A constant panel method(CPM) based on the Green function method is implemented for computing the hydrodynamic pressure, while a finite element method(FEM) is applied for the structural response based on the Mindlin plate theory with including shear deformation. In order to validate the method, we compared numerical results with experimental ones of Mega Float carried out by Yago & Endo in head waves. General behavior shows good agreement but the local displacement at the ends is slightly different. The numerical results show that the radiation pressure due to the fluid-structure interaction is locally larger than that of wave excitation and mooring devices greatly reduce the response. It is observed that the shear effects among the total deformation constitutes about 4% in the case of Mega Float in oblique waves.

In this paper, the method calculating hydroelastic responses of very large floating structure close to a breakwater in waves is presented. The source-dipole distribution method is used to calculate the generalized radiation problem considering breakwater effects and the diffraction problem is analyzed by using the source-dipole distribution andvelocity potential continuation method. The response of a VLFS is approximated by anexpansion in terms of a free-free beam. Calculated model is a VLFS with 1000m in length in a sea with a straight breakwater. The vertical displacements and bonding moments around a VLFS are calculated by variations for distance between a VLFS and a breakwater and incident wave angle to know the effect of a breakwater.

Smoke grenades are the primary means of protection used by tanks to disrupt enemy detection systems. Such smoke grenades are a critical factor that determines the survival of tanks in the engagement of ground weapon systems, but it can only be used once. Owing to its destructive property, the performance and safety of the smoke grenade cannot be confirmed prior to use. Therefore, the reliability of smoke grenades can be evaluated through various tests during the storage period. This paper presents the results of estimating the reliability and shelf life of IR screening smoke grenade launchers based on the result of the Ammunition Stockpile Reliability Program conducted in 2019. Among the smoke grenade launcher lots currently stored, 16 lots and samples were selected for each year of manufacture and tested. The reliability and shelf life were estimated by examining the number of defects and the change in quality characteristics of each test item. The results of this study can be used to assess the reliability of the smoke grenade launchers and to improve the quality of manufacturing sites.

본 논문에서는 평판(plate) 형태를 갖는 부유식 해상구조물의 유탄성해석에 관한 연구를 수행하였다. 유체력 산정을 위해 포텐셜을 입사, 방사, 산란으로 구분하여 계산하였던 기존의 방법 대신 전체 포텐셜을 직접 계산하는 방법을 사용하여 최근의 경향을 반영하였다. 선형 유탄성해석의 특성을 고려하여 해석시간을 감소시키기 위해 일반적으로 사용되고 있는 주파수 영역에서의 해석 기법을 적용하였다. 구조체의 모델링에 소요되는 요소수를 줄이고, 휨 변형 시 전단변형률에 의한 잠김현상을 해소하기 위해 MITC 기법을 적용한 평판 유한요소를 사용하였으며, 3차원 Green 함수법을 적용해 유체력을 산정하였다.

There are many numerical methods to solve large-scale fluid-structure interaction(FSI) problems. However, these methods require very fine mesh to achieve the reasonable numerical accuracy and stability due to the concentrated and volatile hydrodynamic pressure caused by the liquid sloshing. Consequently, the numerical analysis targeting for the long-period time response with the desired numerical accuracy Is very highly time-consuming. The aim of this paper is to suggest a new method to analyze the hydroelastic behavior of the LNGC containment by using the global-local numerical approach. The reliability of the presented method is firstly examined, and then its efficiency is demonstrated by presenting that the long-period local responses of the LNGC containment are obtained with relatively short CPU time.

A numerical method is developed for the hydroelastic response of the Very Large Floating Structure considering the sea-bottom topography. The sea-bottom effects on the hydroelastic response of the floating structure is studied. The sea-bottom topography should be considered when the floating structure is constructed near the shore. To investigate the sea-bottom effects, four different sea-bottom topographies are considered in this study. finite-element method based on the variational formulation is used in the fluid domain, The pontoon-type floating structure is modeled as the Kirchhoff plate. The mode superposition method is adopted for the hydroelastic behavior of the floating structure.

The very large container ships have been built recently and those ships have very small structural rigidity compared with the other conventional ships. As a result, the destruction of ship hull is occurred by the springing including to warping phenomena due to encounter waves. In this study, the solutions of hydrodynamic coefficients are obtained by solving the three dimensional source distribution method and the forward speed Green function representing a translating and pulsating source potential for infinite water depth is used to calculating the integral equation. The vessel is longitudinally divided into various sections and the added mass, wave damping and wave exciting forces of each section is calculated by integrating the dynamic pressures over the mean wetted section surface. The equations for six degree freedom of motions is obtained for each section in the frequency domain and stiffness matrix is calculated by Euler beam theory. The computations are carried out for very large ship and effects of bending and torsional ridigity on the wave frequency and angle are investigated.
