scholarly journals Three Dimensional Radiated Water Wave with a Submerged Cylinder in Presence of Circular Plate

This work deals with the problem of radiated by wave interaction with a couple of submerged cylinders in water which can be considered as a wave energy device and the problem arising from the rotational motion of submerged upper cylinder which one contains in the device. In this work, we approach theoretically to solve the problem based on the method of separation of variables and we derive the radiated velocity potentials numerically based on linear wave theory and eigenfunctions are introduced for each region by using free surface condition. Then we calculate the hydrodynamic coefficients due to rotational of the upper cylinder by using Bernoulli’s equation of pressure by neglecting the atmospheric pressure and unknown constants are calculate by using matched conditions between the regions Finally, we present all numerical results graphically for different radii of the cylinders

The wave forces on a fixed two-dimensional object submerged in water of finite depth are obtained under the assumptions of linear wave theory. The far-field characteristics of the wave interaction with the object are also examined. The boundary-value problem for the wave potential is formulated in terms of Green's theorem, and the resulting integral equation is solved numerically. Results for a submerged and half-submerged circular cylinder and a bottom-seated half cylinder are presented. In the limiting case of infinite depth the numerical results compare quite well with known solutions.

The production and consumption of oil and other petroleum products have been increasing rapidly over the years, which led to the scarcity of easily retrieved oil due to urbanization. As a result, oil producers are motivated to go to deeper ocean to extract oil and other resources.Offshore platforms in deep water like TLPs are used for exploration of oil and gas from under Seabed and processing. But it is challenging to design precisely such type of giant structure in deep sea as it experiences huge forces, motion and other environmental loads which are non-linear, need sophisticated solution techniques and expensive to apply. In the present study wave exciting forces and motions of free floating TLP are carried out in frequency domain analysis using three dimensional source distribution techniques within the scope of linear wave theory where six degrees of freedom have been considered. The same geometrical data are used as an input to HydroStar, which is based on linear wave theory. Results obtained from both the programs are compared which shows a good agreement and also validated with the published results. Comparison of heave motion with and without tether are illustrated where it can be easily understood the effect of tendon. Forces and motions prediction of TLP is emphasized which has been done precisely in the present work and in future it will help us to design the TLPs as well as the tendon system in deep sea. Finally, a number of recommendations have been made for further research based on the present study.

This paper develops a theory for geometrically nonlinear waves in strings and presents analytical solutions for a traveling kink, generation of a geometric wave with its accompanying P wave, reflection of a kink at a fixed support and at a smooth sliding support, and interaction of a P wave and a kink. Conditions that must be satisfied for linear wave theory to hold are derived. The nonlinear theory is demonstrated by extending an historically important solution of the barrage balloon problem that was obtained during World War II.
