An analysis of the non-homogeneous term involved in the free surface condition for second order wave diffraction on a pair of cylinders is presented. In the computations of the nonlinear loads on offshore structures, the most challenging task is the computation of the free surface integral. The main contribution to this integrand is due to the non-homogeneous term present in the free surface condition for second order scattered potential. In this paper, the free surface condition for the second order scattered potential is derived. Under the assumption of large spacing between the two cylinders, waves scattered by one cylinder may be replaced in the vicinity of the other cylinder by equivalent plane waves together with non-planner correction terms. Then solving a complex matrix equation, the first order scattered potential is derived and since the free surface term for second order scattered potential can be expressed in terms of the first order potentials, the free surface term can be obtained using the knowledge of first order potentials only.

The free surface flow problem has been one of the most interesting and challenging topic in the area of the naval ship hydrodynamics and ocean engineering field. The problem has been treated mainly in the scope of the potential theory and its governing equation is well known Laplace equation. But in general, the exact solution to the problem is very difficult to obtain because of the nonlinearlity of the free surface boundary condition. Thus the linearized free surface problem has been treated often in the past. But as the computational power increases, there is a growing trend to solve the fully nonlinear free surface problem numerically. In the present study, a time-dependent finite element method is developed to solve the problem. The initial-boundary problem is formulated and replaced by an equivalent variational formulation. Specifically, the computations are made for a highly nonlinear flow phenomena behind a transom stern ship and a vertical strut piercing the free surface.

Calm water wave resistance plays a very important role in ship hull design. Numerical methods are meaningful for this reason. In this study, two prevailing methods, the Neumann-Kelvin and the Rankine source method, were implemented and compared. The Neumann-Kelvin method assumes linearized free surface boundary condition and only needs to mesh the hull surface. The Rankine source method considers nonlinear free surface boundary condition and meshes both the ship hull surface and free surface. Both methods were implemented and the wave resistance of a Wigley III and three Series 60(Cb=0.6, 0.7, 0.8) hulls were analyzed. The results were compared with experimental results and the merits of both numerical techniques were quantified. Based on the results, it is concluded that the Rankine source method is more accurate in the calculation of the wave-making resistance. Using the Neumann-Kelvin method, it is found to be easier to model the hull and can be used for slender ships to solve problems like wave current coupling calculation.

A digital wave tank (DWT) simulation technique has been developed by authors to investigate the interactions of fully nonlinear waves with 3D marine structures. A finite-difference/volume method and a modified marker-and-cell (MAC) algorithm have been used, which are based on the Navier-Stokes (NS) and continuity equations. The fully nonlinear kinematic free-surface condition is implemented by the marker-density function (MDF) technique or the Level-Set (LS) technique developed for one or two fluid layers. In this paper, some applications for various engineering problems with free-surface are introduced and discussed. It includes numerical simulation of marine environments by simulation equipments, fully nonlinear wave motions around offshore structures, nonlinear ship waves, ship motions in waves and marine flow simulation with free-surface. From the presented simulations, it seems that the developed DWT simulation technique can handle various engineering problems with free-surface and reliably predict hydrodynamic features due to the fully-nonlinear wave motions interacting with such marine structures.

A numerical method is developed for computing the free surface flows around a transom stern of a ship at a high Froude number. At high speed, the flow may be detached from the flat transom stern. In the limit of the high Froude number, the problem becomes a planning problem. In the present study, we make the finite-element computations for a transom stern flows around a wedge-shaped floating ship. The numerical method is based on the Hamilton's principle. The problem is formulated as an initial value problem with nonlinear free surface conditions. In the numerical procedures, the domain was discretized into a set of finite elements and the numerical quadrature was used for the functional equation. The time integrations of the nonlinear free surface condition are made iteratively at each time step. A set of large algebraic equations is solved by GMRES(Generalized Minimal RESidual, Saad and Schultz 1986) method which is proven very efficient. The computed results are compared with previous numerical results obtained by others.

The motion response analysis of a submerged elliptic cylinder in waves is presented and the elliptic cylinder is a simplification of the section of submarine in this paper. The method is based on boundary integral method and two-dimensional 3 degree motions are calculated in regular harmonic waves. The fully nonlinear free surface boundary condition is assumed in an numerical domain and this solution is matched along an assumed boundary as a linear solution composed of transient Green function, The large amplitude motions of an elliptic cylinder are directly simulated and effects of wave frequency, wave amplitude and the distance from buoyancy center to gravity center are discussed.

Cauchy의 적분공식을 복소속도(complex velocity)에 적용하여 포텐시얼 유동을 해석하는 복소경계요소법이 개발되었다. 이 결과로 얻어지는 적분방정식은 경계면에서의 접선속도(tangential velocity)와 법선속도(normal velocity)의 함수로 주어진다. 자유수면에서의 접선속도의 시간변화(evolution of tangential velocity)를 수식화하기 위하여 새로운 비선형 동역학적 자유수면경계조건(nonlinear dynamic free surface boundary condition)을 유도하였다. 복소포텐시얼 대신 복소속도를 이용하는 이 방법은 유장내의 특이점(field singularity)을 용이하게 고려할 수 있으며, 수치미분없이 직접 경계면에서의 유속을 해로서 구하게 된다. 그러나 자유수면이 존재하는 문제의 경우에는, 자유수면에서의 동역학적 경계조건을 만족 시키기 위한 계산과정에 접선 벡타의 변화량을 추정하는 것이 포함되게 되어, 계산과정이 다소 복잡하게 된다.

유체자유수면의 동적거동을 합리적으로 예측하기 위해서는 비선형 특성을 보이는 자유수면의 동역학적 경계조건을 고려해야할 뿐만 아니라 시간에 따라 변화하는 자유수면의 위치변화에 따른 운동학적 경계조건을 고려하여야 한다. 이러한 문제는 대상구조물이 3차원이 될 경우 더욱 복잡해지므로 3차원 비선형 유체자유수면의 해석은 이론해의 도출이 어려우며 수치해석 방법을 이용하는 것이 효과적이다. 본 연구에서는 수치해석 안정성이 높고 3차원 문제에서도 하나의 변수로 유체거동을 모사할 수 있는 arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian approach 를 경계요소에 적용하여 효율적이며 안정적인 유체 대변형 해석기법을 개발하였다. 개발된 기법은 향후 자유수면의 비선형 효과를 고려한 유체-구조물 상호작용 해석에 효과적으로 적용할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

This paper deals with the treatment of the open boundary in two-dimensional free-surface wave problems. Two numerical schemes are investigated for the implementation of the open boundary condition. One is to add the artificial damping term to the dynamic free-surface boundary condition, in which the determination of suitable damping coefficient and the damping zone is the most important. The other is a modified Orlanski's method, which is known to be very useful for the uni-directional waves. Using these two schemes, numerical tests have been conducted for a few typical free-surface wave problems. To obtain the numerical solution of the free-surface boundary value problem, the fundamental source-distribution method is used and the fully nonlinear free-surface boundary conditions are applied. The computed results are presented in comparison with those of others for the proof of practicality of these two schemes.

본 논문에서는 자유수면하에서 이동하는 2차원 수중익 주위의 비선형 유동문제를 포텐셜 이론을 바탕으로 특이점 분포법을 도입하여 해석한 결과이다. Hess & Smith[12]의 방법에 따라 수중익의 표면에 소오스와 보텍스패널을 분포하고, 비선형해를 구하기 위해서 자유수면 위 일정 거리에 랜킨소오스패널(Rankine Source Panel)을 분포하는 수치기법(Raised Panel Method)을 사용하였다. Neumann-Kelvin 선형해로부터 반복계산법을 통해 비선형 자유수면 조건을 엄밀히 만족하는 비선형해를 구하였다. 수치계산결과에서 비선형해가 Duncan[11]의 실험결과(NACA0012, 입사각$(\alpha)= 5^{\circ}$)와 비교적 잘 일치함을 보였으며 수치계산결과의 타당성을 검증할 수 있었다. 잠수깊이가 얕은 경우와 고속 영역에서도 수렴된 해를 구할 수 있었으며, 고속으로 갈수록 비선형해와 선형해의 차이는 미미함을 볼 수 있었다. 수중익의 두께 및 캠버(camber)등 기본적인 단면변화와 속도변화에 대한 수중익의 유체역학적 특징을 살펴보았다.
