Responses of Concrete Truss Spar Platform in Deep Wave

Article Preview

Abstract:

Concrete truss spar model was tested using regular waves in a wave basin andthe responses in surge, heave and pitch were measured. A program was developed to determine the responses using numerical method. This program was run using the modelparameters. The results are agreed well with thecorresponding results obtained from the test measurements. Then thisprogram was applied to a prototype sparsimulated results were compared with the corresponding numericalresults and test measurements.
