Some results on the hydroelasticity of ultra large container ships related to the beam
structural model and restoring stiffness achieved within EU FP7 Project TULCS are …

The problem of a floating elastic body subject to linear wave forcing is considered. It is
shown how the response curve can be approximated using complex resonances, or …

Sažetak Specific characteristic of Ultra Large Container Ships (ULCS), compared to other
types of ships, is that they are more likely to experience the hydroelastic type of structural …

In the processes of lowering down or raising up the legs of a floating structure, the legs are
neither touch with the sea bed nor completely lift up, and the structure is situated in the …

A frequency domain model is developed for the analysis of the fluid-structure interaction of
surface gravity waves with a fluid-filled membrane. The membrane structure shape under …

Vibration analysis of a thin-walled structure can be performed with a consistent mass matrix
determined by the shape functions of all degrees of freedom (dof) used for construction of …

Two different restoring stiffness formulations for ship hydroelastic analysis are considered,
ie, a consistent one, as an extension of the ordinary restoring stiffness in ship rigid body …

The increase in the world trade has largely contributed to the explosion in sea traffic. In the
last 25 years the total amount of marine trade has nearly doubled. In the same period …

Hydroelastic analysis of ship structures is a complex task of determining the interaction
between the structure motion and vibrations on the one hand and water on the other. In the …

Hydroelastic analysis, with contemporary and well developed methodology, is capable of
adequately capturing complex fluid-structure interaction related to ultra large container …
