For operations at sea it is important to have a good estimate of the current local sea state. Often, sea state information comes from wave buoys or weather forecasts. Sometimes wave radars are used. These sources are not always available or reliable. Being able to reliably use ship motions to estimate sea state characteristics reduces the dependency on external and/or expensive sources. In this paper, we present a method to estimate sea state characteristics from time series of 6-DOF ship motions using machine learning. The available data consists of ship motion and wave scanning radar measurements recorded for a period of two years on a frigate type vessel. The research focused on estimating the relative wave direction, since this is most difficult to estimate using traditional methods. Time series are well suited as input, since the phase differences between motion signals hold the information relevant for this case. This type of input data requires machine learning algorithms that can capture both the relation between the input channels and the time dependence. To this end, convolutional neural networks (CNN) and recurrent neural networks (RNN) are adopted in this study for multivariate time series regression. The results show that the estimation of the relative wave direction is acceptable, assuming that the data set is large enough and covers enough sea states. Investigating the chronological properties of the data set, it turned out that this is not yet the case. The paper will include discussions on how to interpret the results and how to treat temporal data in a more general sense.

During riserless drilling operations conducted in some scientific drillings and the initial stages of all oil and gas drilling operations, drill pipe motions such as vortex induced vibration, whirl motion, and motion due to the Magnus effect are generated. The last motion represents an interesting and important phenomenon that generates a lift force in addition to a drag force due to the ocean current and the rotation of the drill pipe. Accordingly, this study focuses on the drill pipe motions owing to the Magnus effect. An analytical model of a drill pipe was established by applying an absolute nodal coordinate formulation (ANCF) that can capture the behavior of a relatively flexible and long pipe, such as a drill pipe. The lifting and drag forces are calculated using computational fluid dynamics (CFD), and the lift and drag coefficients are calculated for several different drill pipe rotational velocities and ocean current velocities. A series of model experiments were conducted in a towing tank, with changing water flow velocities and rotational speed of the drill pipe model to observe the corresponding changes in the Magnus effect and to measure the resulting drill pipe motions. Additionally, the resulting drag and lift forces were measured. It was observed from the experiments that the motions in the cross-flow direction increased as the rotational speed of the drill pipe model increased, and that the lifting force increased as the rotational speed increased. The drill pipe motions were then simulated using a previously established analytical model and the results of the CFD simulations. The results of the simulations were evaluated against the results of the experiments, and reasons for observed discrepancies are discussed.

This paper examines the stability of a riser conveying fluid for Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion (OTEC) application by analytical and numerical approaches. Initially, the analytical solution for free hanging riser with fixed end connection is governed by including the components of the riser dynamics. Considering the boundary conditions, the general solution can be obtained using power series expansion. The imaginary and real parts of the solutions are plotted in an Argand diagram which is then used to predict the occurrence of instability. To verify the analytical solution, the dynamic behavior observed in the analytical solution is compared with the one predicted using numerical analysis. The numerical analysis here refers to a coupled analysis between riser and the fluid. After being verified, the analytical model is used to determine the acceptance of the proposed riser designs for 100 MW-Net OTEC power plant. In this paper, there are three materials being investigated which are steel, aluminum and FRP. For the given conditions, the results show that the critical velocity for steel-made riser is only about 0.9 m/s, for aluminum-made riser is about 1.7 m/s and the critical velocity for riser made of FRP is about 2.1 m/s.
本文采用解析和数值方法研究了海洋热能转换(OTEC)中立管输送流体的稳定性。最初,具有固定端连接的自由悬挂立管的解析解是通过包含立管动力学组件来控制的。考虑边界条件,用幂级数展开得到通解。解的虚部和实部绘制在阿根图中,然后用它来预测不稳定的发生。为了验证解析解,将解析解中观察到的动力行为与数值分析预测的动力行为进行了比较。这里的数值分析是指立管与流体之间的耦合分析。分析模型经验证后,用于确定100mw - net OTEC电厂立管设计方案的验收。本文研究了钢、铝和FRP三种材料。结果表明:在给定条件下,钢制冒口的临界速度仅为0.9 m/s左右,铝制冒口的临界速度约为1.7 m/s, FRP制冒口的临界速度约为2.1 m/s。

Higher-order boundary element method (HOBEM) for wave diffraction/radiation analysis is a powerful tool for its applicability to a general (curved) geometry. Inspired by the paper which examined the convergence of BIE code with constant panels (Martic, et al., 2018; OMAE2018-77999), the convergence characteristics of HOBEM with quadrilateral panels have been examined. Here, the effect of removal of irregular frequencies is particularly focused as discussed by Martic, et al. (2018). The irregular frequency removal has been made by the rigid-lid method which is applicable to HOBEM, where the intersection line between the body-surface and the free-surface should be carefully handled. The results show that for first order quantities the convergence is quite good for both cases with/without irregular frequency removal (except where the irregular frequencies affect for the case without irregular frequency removal). For mean drift forces, the convergence becomes poor particularly for the case without irregular frequency removal. The convergence characteristics are examined and some discussions are made.
用于波衍射/辐射分析的高阶边界元法(HOBEM)因其适用于一般(弯曲)几何而成为一种强大的工具。受一篇研究BIE代码收敛性的论文的启发(Martic, et al., 2018;OMAE2018-77999),对带有四边形面板的HOBEM收敛特性进行了研究。在这里,正如Martic等人(2018)所讨论的那样,去除不规则频率的影响特别集中。不规则频率的去除采用了适用于HOBEM的刚性盖法,其中应小心处理体面与自由面之间的交点线。结果表明,对于一阶量,无论是否去除不规则频率,其收敛性都很好(除非不规则频率对未去除不规则频率的情况有影响)。对于平均漂移力,收敛性变差,特别是在没有去除不规则频率的情况下。研究了该算法的收敛特性,并作了一些讨论。

In this paper, we describe the analysis of the dynamic response of a 2 MW floating offshore wind turbine (FOWT) at the time of typhoon attack in the actual sea area. In order to introduce floating offshore wind turbine in Asia, it is essential to evaluate the influence of typhoon attack accurately. This FOWT, named HAENKAZE is the only FOWT to operate commercially in areas where typhoons occur. On July 3rd, 2018, the strongest typhoon (Prapiroon) at the installed area of the FOWT since its installation approached the HAENKAZE. The central atmospheric pressure of the typhoon at the closest time was 965 hPa, the maximum instantaneous wind speed at the hub height was 52.2 m/s, and the maximum wave height was 7.1 m. In this paper, the dynamic response of the floating body at the time of typhoon attack is compared for the measured and the simulated values. As a result of the comparison, basically a good agreement has been obtained between the measured and the simulated values except for yaw response, for which the simulated values considerably overestimate the measured values.

When using synthetic fiber rope as a mooring line of a floating body such as floating offshore wind turbine (FOWT), it is necessary to carry out characteristic test and to grasp well about strength, stiffness, durability against monotonic and cyclic loadings. In this research, we have made characteristics test of polyester rope based on ISO. Next, based on the obtained characteristic values (mass, stiffness, strength, etc.), the dynamic response analysis of the floating body-mooring system was carried out and the mooring design was carried out. It was actually operated as a floating body mooring line for about 1 year. During the operation period, no abnormality was found, nor appearance damage occurred. After completion of operation for 1 year, the polyester rope was collected and residual strength test was carried out. As a result, no serious deterioration situation such as infiltration of marine organisms or fracture of the strands due to wear between fibers was observed at all. On the other hand, with respect to durability, it was found that the strength reduction was 2.9% from the initial state with respect to the breaking strength.
