In the paper, the new machining process which was named non-abrasive cryogenic polishing will be introduced. The model of non-abrasive cryogenic polishing was set up. The dynamic simulation was analyzed by using Recurdyn. And the physical model was accomplished. By analyzing mass experiments, the ice tool material, metal material, rotate speed, polishing time and other parameters were found.
Abstract
Following the successful application of CFD-based Numerical Wave Basin (NWB) to GBS, TLP and Semisubmersible platforms [1–4], the same methodology has been applied to simulate FPSO hull motion responses to irregular waves. It has been found that the NWB modeling practices developed for the other floater types must be modified for application to an FPSO. This paper describes how the NWB modeling practices have been improved, and then compares results from NWB simulations with those from physical model testing.
