砰击载荷作用下船艏结构瞬态响应研究

砰击现象对高速舰船艏部局部结构破坏相当严重,对舰船和人员的安全构成较大威胁,然而由于砰击载荷的瞬态性和强非线性,其计算理论还很不成熟,舰船艏部结构在砰击作用下的应力响应更鲜有人研究。基于此,利用设计波下确定的砰击压力极值,结合以往试验测定的砰击压力随时间的变化关系,计算得到砰击压力的时空分布,然后将其施加在船艏精细有限元模型上,利用中心差分法进行数值计算,并对计算中一些关键参数的设置值做不同尝试,得到了较理想的艏部结构应力响应历程。

恶劣海况中大外飘型舰船的总载荷颤振响应分析

[目的]舰船遭遇恶劣海况时艏部砰击会激起船体梁颤振响应,威胁到总纵强度的安全。砰击颤振弯矩与船体刚度和外飘构型相关,但不同船型结构布置和型线差异大,有必要针对大外飘型舰船开展颤振响应分析。[方法]首先,采用COMPASS-WALCS-NE势流时域水弹性方法预报设计海况下的船体梁总载荷,并与分段自航模试验对比验证;然后,再提取艏部砰击合力、典型时刻的船体运动状态和船体梁总载荷响应的时历曲线,通过分析波浪载荷高低频分量的相位差异,研究船舯砰击弯矩与艏部砰击合力的关联性;最后,围绕船体主要设计参数进行敏感度分析。[结果]在设计海况艏部入水时,其砰击合力出现了2次峰值,分别对应于底板和外飘区域的大面积触水过程;颤振弯矩主要由艏部外飘砰击引起,受力面积大,合力距离船舯远,导致砰击弯矩达到了波浪弯矩的同等幅值;大外飘型舰船的砰击弯矩对波高变化最为敏感。[结论]对于大外飘型舰船的总纵强度评估应考虑砰击颤振的影响,对于中垂砰击弯矩需要直接与静水成分、低频的波浪成分叠加,而中拱砰击弯矩应考虑阻尼耗散,可先折减再叠加。

本文对船艏自由落体砰击载荷进行了模型试验研究,根据不同的落体高度与入水角进行了多次试验,研究了落体高度、入水角等因素对入水速度、砰击载荷及结构响应的影响。研究结果表明:船体入水速度、砰击压力、结构响应等随着落体高度的增大而增大;模型入水过程中,各测量点砰击压力峰值发生时刻存在一定的时间差;结构响应峰值发生时刻也存在一定的时间差;由于斜升角较小,球鼻艏底部的砰击压力峰值最大;外飘区域的砰击压力最大值仅为球鼻艏底部的30%～50%;同一水线面上,从船艏模型艏端向艉端砰击压力峰值逐渐减小;对同一横剖面,外飘下部区域的砰击压力峰值大于外飘上部区域的砰击压力峰值;由于砰击压力对外界影响因素非常敏感,砰击压力与结构响应具有一定的离散性。     

江海直达船艏部结构入水砰击试验

新一代江海直达船主要呈宽扁型且吃水较浅,由江入海航行时会发生船艏底部和外飘砰击,严重的砰击会造成船舶主动失速甚至结构损伤,影响船舶与人员安全。传统的理论和相关经验公式很难预报宽扁肥大的艏部结构的砰击载荷。相较于传统的简化模型试验方法,本文基于相似理论设计了与某新型江海直达船艏部结构相似的三维木质模型。采用落水试验的方法进行了一系列的不同落水高度及不同入水角度的入水砰击试验。研究江海直达船艏部结构所受砰击载荷特点,得到砰击压力峰值及其分布规律,同时发现了小角度入水情况下(入水攻角α5°)的空气垫效应,空气垫延缓并减小了砰击压力峰值。此外还回归了0°~15°入水攻角下的底部砰击压力预报公式,可供结构设计时参考砰击载荷的选取。

超大型集装箱船艏艉砰击强度直接计算方法

超大型集装箱船的船艏显著外飘、船艉宽平外悬,使其在恶劣海况下航行时容易发生严重的砰击。为确保船体艏艉部结构在砰击中不发生损坏,需要研究作用到艏艉外板上的砰击压力,并以此为设计载荷来校核外板和相连结构的强度。目前对集装箱船砰击局部强度的校核要求仍以经验公式为主,但是为提高对超大尺度船舶强度校核的可靠性,近年来推出了砰击的直接分析方法。本文初步分析了砰击直接分析方法的基本原理,并运用该方法对20,000 TEU集装箱船的艏、艉部砰击压力以及最小板厚要求进行了研讨,其结果可为超大型集装箱船的结构设计提供重要的参考。

Wave slamming loads on wave-piercer catamarans operating at high-speed determined by hydro-elastic segmented model experiments

Catamaran vessels operating at high-speed can be exposed to deck diving and bow damage and one resolution of this problem is the wave-piercer design of INCAT Tasmania. Owing to the complexity of the unsteady non-linear flow in the bow area during large wave encounter model testing has been undertaken to identify the peak dynamic slam loads on the ship structure. This paper provides experimental benchmark information relating to the wave slam loads on wave-piercing catamaran ferries. Since the time frames of transient slam loadings and whipping vibration of the entire hull in its first bending mode are similar it is important that the test model replicates the whipping response and therefore needs to be a hydro-elastic model. A 2.5 m hydro-elastic segmented catamaran model has been developed based on the 112 m INCAT Tasmania wave-piercer catamaran to establish the peak wave slamming loads acting on the full-scale vessel. Towing tank tests were performed in regular seas at a maximum full-scale operating speed of 38 knots. The model was instrumented to measure the dynamic slam loads acting on the centre bow and vertical bending moments acting in the demihulls of the catamaran model as a function of wave frequency and wave height. Peak slam loads measured on the centre bow were found to approach the total weight of the model, this being a broadly similar result to the peak loads measured at full-scale. It was found that global dimensionless heave and pitch accelerations peaked in the same range of encounter frequency as did the peak slam load.     

Numerical study on the dynamic response of a truncated ship-hull structure under asymmetrical slamming

Dynamic response of ship-hull structure under slamming has tracked widespread attention in the marine structural design. However, our understanding on the dynamic characteristics largely relies on the symmetrical slamming cases. This paper presented a preliminary numerical investigation on the dynamic response of a truncated ship-hull structure under asymmetrical slamming based on the uncoupled CFD-FE method. Asymmetrical slamming loads were predicted through combining the seakeeping analysis and CFD method. In there, three kinds of motions (vertical, horizontal and roll motions) of 2D ship sections were obtained through the seakeeping analysis and then the slamming pressure was predicted through simulating the water entry with various motions based on CFD method. The dynamic response was analyzed through finite element method. Numerical predictions including ship motions, slamming loads and dynamic analysis were validated against published experimental data and numerical calculations. The characteristics of asymmetrical slamming loads were analyzed showing obvious asymmetry in space, and the dynamic characteristic of the ship bow structure was further clarified through discussing the deformation and stress distribution. These results are useful for readers for better understanding the dynamic characteristics of the bow structure under slamming.     

计及水-空气-结构耦合的结构砰击载荷预报方法研究

船舶在恶劣海况下航行时,船体与波浪之间会发生剧烈的砰击现象,严重时会造成船体局部结构损坏或降低船舶总纵强度。随着工业技术的革新和海洋资源开发的需要,当代船舶不断向高速化和大型化发展,船舶发生砰击现象的概率也越来越高。开展结构砰击特性研究,准确地预报结构物的砰击载荷,对船舶航行和人员安全有重要的意义。本文基于水动力学软件 Fine/Marine,建立水域-空气域-结构耦合的分析模型,对楔形结构的砰击特性进行数值仿真分析,并研究不同斜升角及不同入水速度对砰击载荷的影响。     

Local structural response to seakeeping and slamming loads

A common approach to investigate the response of a structural detail such as a hatch corner is to compute the seakeeping loads using a linear 3D Boundary Element Method (BEM) and transfer the seakeeping loads to a Finite Element (FE) model of the ship structure. This approach is suitable for computations of the fatigue loading of structural details near amidships because a majority of the fatigue loading will occur in mild sea-states where the loading may be assumed linear. However, the linear seakeeping model may not hold when one investigates the ultimate response of the local bow structure of a ship which is designed to remain operational in severe conditions, for example, a frigate. A linear seakeeping analysis will significantly underpredict the loading at the bow because both the impulsive slamming loads and the non-linearities in the non-impulsive wave loads will contribute significant to the structural loading.The non-linear loads require one to first derive a short-term distribution of the local structural response before the ultimate value of the response can be derived. A method to compute the short-term distribution of a structural detail is presented in this paper. The first step is to perform seakeeping analyses which includes slamming, non-linear Froude-Kryloff and hydrostatic loads. The short-term distribution of the total hydrodynamic loading at the structural detail is obtained by simulating the seakeeping response for several hours. The response of the local structure is computed for the most severe impacts found in the seakeeping simulation. The hydrodynamic loading, including the non-linear contributions, is transfer to the structural model and the structural response is computed using the FE-method. The results of the structural analyses allow one to transform the short-term distribution of the structural loading to a short-term distribution of the response of the structural detail. A designer can obtain the ultimate structural response by entering the probability at which one accepts overloading of the structure in the short-term distribution of the response of the structural detail.     

Numerical and experimental analysis of bow flare slamming on a Ro–Ro vessel in regular oblique waves

A method for the prediction of slamming loads on ship hulls is presented and validated for a 20-knot, 120-m car carrier. A nonlinear strip theory is used to calculate the relative motions of ship and wave. The relative vertical and roll velocities for a slamming event are given as input to the slamming calculation program, which is based on a generalized two-dimensional Wagner formulation and solved by the boundary element method. The method is fast and robust. Model tests of a car carrier have been carried out in regular head, bow, and bow quartering waves of various heights. Slamming on two panels in the upper part of the bow flare has been studied. It has been found that the water pile-up around the bow due to the forward speed of the vessel significantly increases the slamming pressures. A simplified way of including this effect is presented. When the calculated slamming pressures are corrected for 3D effects, they compare well with the measured data. Since the effect of the wave elevation due to the forward speed and the effect of three-dimensional flow act in opposite directions, excluding both of them produced results that also agreed quite well with the experiments, especially for the most severe slamming events.

Bow door slamming of Ro/Ro ferries

This paper addresses the structural response of clam-type bow doors of Ro/Ro vessels under slamming loading conditions. The structural analysis is performed with the finite element code MSC/NASTRAN. The loading conditions were determined on the basis of towing tank tests, numerical calculation and regulations of classification societies. Slamming loads are applied statically and the FE code accounts for both material and geometrical nonlinearities. Apart from stress distributions, which are determined for different loading patterns, the results are used to calculate the forces and moments induced on the locking and securing elements, which secure the doors among themselves and the doors to the bow structure. The modelling methods reported may be used for the finite element analysis of similar structures. Such analyses of bow doors response under slamming loading could be submitted to classification societies for approval.
