Nonlinear Simulation of Interaction between Water and Free Floating Ship

Abstract:

Based on fluid-solid two-phase coupling numerical model, this paper utilized velocity potential function theory to investigate the nonlinear interaction of water and free floating body. Meanwhile, multi-time step integral method and Overall numerical solution method, which are suitable for finite element dynamic analysis, and free surface boundary condition, not moving boundary conditions and the water-solid coupling boundary conditions are adopted to analyze the dynamic responses of water and free floating body with different dimensions. Numerical results show that the change of floating body sizes can obviously affect the dynamic characteristics of the fluid-solid coupling system, especially in the aspects of the stress responses of the floating body and the pressure responses of the water model.
