As the offshore oil fields are moved to the deep ocean, the oil production systems of FPSO(Floating production storage and offloading system) are building these days and so it is the most important to estimate the drift motion and damping effects the drift motion importantly. The components of damping consist of viscous, wave radiation effect and wave drift damping. It is need to estimate the wave drift damping exactly among them. The wave drift damping means the change rate of mean wave drift force with respect to the ship and ocean structures speed. In order to calculate this, the 3-Dimensional panel method used to translating and pulsating Green function is adopted. The calculation is carried out for series 60(CB = 0.7) vessel and the results are compared with other theoretical ones.

As the offshore oil fields are moved to the deep ocean, the oil production system of FPSO(Floating Production Storage and Offloading System) Type are constructed frequently these days. So, it is very important to estimate the drift motion and damping effects due to the drift motion simultaneously. The components of slow drift motion damping consist of viscous, wave radiation effect and wave drift damping. It is needed to estimate the wave drift damping more accurately than others. The wave drift damping signifies the time-rate of mean wave drift force on oscillating ship or ocean structure which constant speed. In order to calculate this, the 3-Dimensional panel method is employed with the translating and pulsating Green function in the frequency domain. The calculation is carried out for a Series 60 ($C_B$/=0.7) and the results are compared with other numerical ones.

Reid and Kajiura(1957)은 해저면에 무한한 깊이의 투수층이 존재할 경우에의 파의 감쇠율을 유도하였다. 본 연구에서는 유한한 깊이의 투수층이 존재할 경우에의 파의 감쇠율을 선형파이론을 이용하여 유도하였다. 그리고 이를 확장하여 해저면에 재질이 다른 2 층 또는 3 층의 투수층이 존재할 경우에 파의 감쇠율을 제시하였다. 다음으로 이를 완경사 방정식에 적용하여, 해저면에 투수층이 존재할 경우에의 파의 투과율을 계산하였으며, 1층 투수층이 존재할 경우의 수치계산결과를 Flaten and Rygg(1991)의 적분식 방법과 비교하여 검증하였다.

A new wave-absorbing system, called the liquefied sandbed wave barrier (LSWB) system, is currently under development at the Port and Airport Research Institute (PARI) of Japan. The wave damping effect by the LSWB system is substantial, as confirmed by small-scale experiments and FEM numerical calculations, i.e., the wave transmission coefficient of the system is less than 0.2. Here, the results of large-scale experiments arediscussed in view of practical application. Although the LSWB system provides high wave damping, nearly equal to theoretical values, difficulty exists in obtaining a homogeneously liquefied sandbed, due to the occurrence of liquefied sandbed compaction by cyclic wave loading, which in turn, reduces excess pare pressure and the wave damping effect. These two phenomena primarily occur when the sandbed is composed of fine sand with small permeability. Based on experimental results, we propose a design method that includes countermeasures against such problems, and a prototype LSWB system is constructed in a very large wave flume at PARI. Wave damping by the prototype LSWB system is confirmed to be quite stable and high, as predicted by theoretical calculations.

In this paper, we simulate the collision of a solitary wave on a vertical wall in a uniform water channel and investigate the effect of damping on the amplitude attenuation. In order to take into account the damping effect, we introduce the Stokes damping whose dissipation is dependent on the velocity of wave motion on the surface of a thin layer of oil. That is, we use the improved Boussinesq equation with Stokes damping to describe the damped wave motion. Our work mainly focuses on the amplitude attenuation of a propagating solitary wave, which may depend on the Stokes damping together with the initial position and initial amplitude of the wave. We utilize the method of images and a powerful numerical tool (functional iteration method) for solving the improved Boussinesq equation, yielding an effective numerical simulation. This enables us to find the amplitudes of the incident wave and reflected one, whose ratio is a measure of the (wave) amplitude attenuation. Accordingly, we have shown that the reflection of a solitary wave by a vertical wall is dependent on not only the initial amplitude and position of a solitary but the Stokes damping.

To predict rolling performance for a barge-type FPSO, the evaluation of correct nonlinear roll damping is critical. The square section of FPSO causes a considerable viscous damping effect. Free roll decay tests were carried out to estimate nonlinear roll damping for a barge-type FPSO, under three different conditions. The roll motion RAO was deduced from model tests in the wave condition of the wideband spectrum. In numerical calculation, the quadratic damping was considered as equivalent linear damping, using the results of free roll decay test. Tested roll performance in the JONSWAP wave spectrum was compared with numerical results. These two results shaw good agreement, in spite of the proximity of peak wave period and roll natural period.

A new concept wave absorber is proposed. It is a net type wave absorber. Its efficiency was reported in another publication. Since it is based on new concept, the traditional wave absorber theory is not applicable. It is modeled by introducing damping terms in linearized free surface boundary conditions in this study. The length and the thickness of the wave absorber are modeled by the length and the coefficient of the damping terms. Series of experiments are carried out to get the data for the coefficients of the damping term. The boundary element method is adopted to solve the system. The predicted wave heights show excellent agreement with those of experiments when the lengths of the incoming waves are within the length of the wave absorber.

In this study, numerical analysis and experiments were performed to analyze the viscous damping effect according to the shape of the chamber skirt of the breakwater-linked inclined oscillating water column wave energy converter. Experiments were conducted using a two-dimensional mini wave tank and verified by comparing the results of a computational fluid dynamics numerical analysis. Pointed and rounded skirts were modeled to compare the effect of viscous damping when incident waves enter the chamber, and the difference in the displacement of the water surface in the chamber was compared according to the wave period for the two skirt shapes. The wave elevation in the chamber in the rounded-skirt condition was larger than the pointed-skirt condition in all wave periods, which was approximately 47% greater at 0.9 s of the incident wave period. Therefore, extracting the maximum energy through the optimal orifice is possible while minimizing the energy attenuation in the rounded-skirt condition.

The present study deals with the conceptual design of a motion reduction device for a floating wave-offshore wind hybrid power generation platform. A damping plate attached to the bottom of a column of a large semi-submersible is introduced to reduce the motion of the platform. Performance analyses on various shapes and configurations of damping plates were performed using the potential flow solver, and the appropriate configuration and size of the damping plate were selected based on the numerical results. In order to see the effect of viscous damping, a small scale model test was performed in a 2D wave flume. The performances of five different damping plates were measured and discussed based on the results of free decay tests and regular wave tests.

Visco-elastic damping material for reducing heavy-weight floor impact noise and vibration in reinforced concrete structures was tested according to its thickness in the damping layer. The effect of damping material was compared with 20, 15, 10 and 5mm thickness. The wave propagation characteristics was measured for suggestion of an efficient method to reduce the floor impact noise. The method was proposed using the flexural wave propagation characteristics. The result showed that reduction of the thickness of damping layer made a slight difference; the natural frequency moved to higher frequency and the amplitude increased at low frequencies with 5mm thickness of damping material.
