Marine structures are often in contact with inner or outer fluid as stern, ballast and oil tanks. The effect of interaction between fluid and structure has to be taken into consideration when we estimate the dynamic response of the structure appropriately. Fatigue damages can also be sometimes observed in these tanks which seem to be caused by resonance. Thin walled tank structures in ships which are in contact with water and located near engine or propeller where vibration characteristics are strongly affected by the added mass of containing water. Therefore it is essentially important to estimate the added mass effect to predict vibration characteristics of tank structures. But it is difficult to estimate exactly the magnitude of the added mass because this is a fluid-structure interaction problem and is affected by the free surface, vibration modes of structural panels and the depth of water. I have developed a numerical tool of vibration analysis of 3-dimensional tank structure using finite elements for plates and boundary elements for fluid region. In the present study, the effect of added mass of containing water, the effect of structural constraint between panels on the vibration characteristics are investigated numerically and discussed. Especially a natural frequencies by the fluid interaction between 2 panels and a breath mode of the water tank are focused on.

Tank structures in ships are in contact with various fluid. The vibration characteristics of those structures are strongly affected by the added mass due to containing fluid. It is important to predict vibration characteristics of tank structures, but it is difficult to do. That's because the interaction problem concerned with the free surface, the variation of water depth and stiffener is to be considered between the fluid and the structure. Many authors have studied vibration of rectangular tank structures containing water. Kito studied added mass effect of water in contact with thin elastic flat plates. Kim et al. studied flexural vibration of stiffened plates in contact with water. However, few researches on dynamic interaction tank walls with water are reported in the vibration of rectangular tanks recently. in the present report, the coupling effect of added mass of fluid and structural constraint between panels on each vibration mode changing breadth of elastic plate, and dynamic pressure distribution have investigated numerically and discussed.

In ship structures, many parts are in contact with inner or outer fluid as stern, ballast and oil tanks. Fatigue damages can be sometimes observed in these tanks which seem to be caused by resonance. Tank structures in ships are in contact with water and the vibration characteristics are strongly affected by the added mass of containing water. Therefore it is important to predict vibration characteristics of tank structures. In order to estimate the vibration characteristics, the fluid-structure interaction problem has to be solved precisely. In the present paper, we have developed a numerical tool of vibration analysis of 3-dimensional tank structures using finite elements for plates and boundary elements for water region. To verify the present analysis, we have made an experiment for vibration characteristics of a tank with elastic opposite panels. And the added mass effect of containing water and the effect of structural constraint between panels are investigated numerically and discussed.

This research addresses experimentally the relationship between the excitation frequency and both hoop and axial wall stresses in a water storage tank. A low-density polyethylene tank with six different aspect ratios (water level to tank radius) was tested using a shake table. A laminar box with sand represents a soil site to simulate Soil-Structure Interaction (SSI). Sine excitations with eight frequencies that cover the first free vibration frequency of the tank-water system were applied. Additionally, Ricker wavelet excitations of two different dominant frequencies were considered. The maximum stresses are compared with those using a nonlinear elastic spring-mass model. The results reveal that the coincidence between the excitation frequency and the free-vibration frequency of the soil-tank-water system increases the sloshing intensity and the rigid-like body motion of the system, amplifying the stress development considerably. The relationship between the excitation frequency and wall stresses is nonlinear and depends simultaneously on both sloshing and uplift. In most cases, the maximum stresses using the nonlinear elastic spring-mass model agree with those from the experiments.

작동조건이 두개의 공기충돌형 연료분사장치로부터 분사되는 이중분무 특성에 미치는 영향을 공연비 1.36∼3.54의 범위에서 실험적으로 수행하였다. 물과 질소가스가 실험유체로서 사용되었다. 분무 액적의 분포특성은 질량분포와 순간영상 촬영법에 의하여 측정되었다. 실험적 결과는 ROA(축방향에 대한 반경방향 공급압력비)의 증가에 따라 질량분포곡선의 최대값은 낮아지면서 더 넓은 영역에 걸쳐 분포하였으며 공급유체의 증가에 따른 질량중심점의 위치는 변화가 없었다. 노즐간격 증가는 간섭영역에서의 질량분포에는 커다란 영향을 미치지는 않았으나 더 넓은 영역에 걸쳐 분포하려는 특성을 보여주었다. 또한, ROA 비가 증가할수록 충돌중심점 근처에서 간섭의 영향은 작아짐을 중첩법을 이용하여 비교함으로서 잘 알 수 있었다.

The purpose of this study is to develop the algorithm for dynamic interaction analysis of submerged floating tunnel and vehicles. The dynamic behavior characteristic of submerged floating tunnel is certainly different with general structures, because the submerged floating tunnel is floating in the middle of water, and subjected to constant buoyance. Therefore the analyses in various aspects should be carried out to secure structural stability and practicality of structures. To conduct the dynamic interaction analysis, the structure is modeled by commercial FEM program ABAQUS to investigate modal characteristic. Also the added mass concept is applied to represent the inertial force by a fluid, and then dynamic interaction analyses are conducted with superposition method when the KTX is moving along the submerged floating tunnel. And the time histories are presented for vertical and lateral displacement at the center of the tunnel.

Unlike structures in the air, the vibration analysis of a submerged or floating structure such as offshore structures or ships is possible only when the fluid-structure interaction is understood, as the whole or part of the structure is in contact with water. Specially, the importance of the added mass is not necessary to say like the submerged vehicle, all of the hull body, is positioned in the water. This paper introduce two method to find natural frequency in consideration of fluid-structure modal coupled vibration analysis. The purpose of this study is to analyze of the vibration characteristic of submerged vehicle to obtain the anti-vibration design data, which could be used in the preliminary design stage data. Underwater pressure hull of submerged vehicle is used as the model of this study. The F.E.M model is meshed by shell and beam element. Also, considering of the inner hull weight, mass element is distributed in the direction of hull length. Numerical calculations are accomplished using the commercial B.E.M code. The characteristics of natural frequency(eigenvalues), mode shape(eigenvectors) and frequency-displacement response are analyzed. The results of this study will be used as the useful design data in preliminary anti-vibration design stage.

A liquid storage rectangular tank structures are used in many fields of civil, mechanical and marine engineering. Especially, Ship structures have many tanks in contact with inner or outer fluid, like ballast, fuel and cargo tanks. Fatigue damages are sometimes observed in these tanks which seem to be caused by resonance with exciting force of engine and propeller. Vibration characteristics of these thin walled tanks in contact with fluid near engine propeller are strongly affected by added mass of containing fluid. Therefore it is essentially important to estimate the added mass effect to predict vibration of the tank structures. Many authors have studied vibration of cylindrical and rectangular tanks structures containing fluid. Few research on dynamic interaction among tank walls through fluid are reported in the vibration of rectangular tanks recently. In case of rectangular tanks, structural coupling between adjacent panels and effect of vibration modes of multiple panels on added mass have to be considered. In the present paper, coupling effect between panels of tank structure on added mass of containing fluid, the effect of structural constraint between panels on each vibration mode for fluid region have investigated numerically and experimentally.

Considering a rigorously fluid-structure interaction, a method for an earthquake response analysis of a floating offshore structure subjected to vertical ground motion from a seaquake is developed. Mass, damping, stiffness, and hydrostatic stiffness matrices of the floating offshore structure are obtained from a finite-element model. The sea water is assumed to be a compressible, nonviscous, ideal fluid. Hydrodynamic pressure, which is applied to the structure, from the sea water is assessed using its finite elements and transmitting boundary. Considering the fluid-structure interaction, added mass and force from the hydrodynamic pressure is obtained, which will be combined with the numerical model for the structure. Hydrodynamic pressure in a free field subjected to vertical ground motion and due to harmonic vibration of a floating massless rigid circular plate are calculated and compared with analytical solutions for verification. Using the developed method, the earthquake responses of a floating offshore structure subjected to a vertical ground motion from the seaquake is obtained. It is concluded that the earthquake responses of a floating offshore structure to vertical ground motion is severely influenced by the compressibility of sea water.

본 연구는 기체/액체를 사용하는 Swirl injector에 의해서 형성된 Spray fan 사이의 간섭효과를 평가하기 위한 실험연구로서, 공급압력과 인젝터 사이의 거리를 변수로 하여 실험을 수행하였다. 사용되는 기체는 공기, 액체는 물을 사용하였으며, 분사된 물의 질량분포를 채집하여 Spray fan의 간섭효과를 평가하였다. 본 연구 범위에서 실험결과는 다음과 같다. 액체만 공급하여 형성된 두 개의 Spray fan이 충돌할 경우, 충돌점 하부에 질량이 집중적으로 포집되었고, 공급압력이 증가함에 따라 이러한 간섭현상은 감소하였다. 공기와 물이 동시에 공급될 경우에도 충돌점 하부에 질량이 집중되는 현상을 나타냈으나, 공기압력대 물 압력비가 증가함에 따라 이러한 간섭현상은 감소하였다.
