Uncertainty due to discretization on the ALE algorithm for predicting water slamming loads

Numerical uncertainty due to discretization on the Arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian (ALE) Finite Element method is investigated in the study. The paper quantifies uncertainty using two ITTC recommended methods, and also applies a constant Courant-Friedrichs-Lewy (CFL) number based discretization approach, instead of performing the independent grid and time-based discretization recommended by ITTC. As a case study, water entry of a flat bottom rigid and flexible plate is simulated considering various entry velocities. The total slamming loads and structural responses on both the rigid and elastic bottom plates are predicted and validated against available experimental data. Results indicate that numerical errors due to discretization differ in the various parameters and from case to case. They do affect the analysis of slamming loads and associated structural responses, and the hydroelasticity analysis as well. The hydroelasticity effects on the slamming force generally increase as the entry velocity increases, however, the quantitative results differ much for models with different grids. For example, when the hydroelasticity effect is estimated using the finer model, the deviation of the total slamming force on the elastic plate relative to the one on the rigid body are 56%, 57%, and 63% respectively for the three constant entry velocities, whereas the estimations are −27%, −4% and 3% with the coarser model. The study concludes that the uncertainty due to discretization in ALE is not just case-specific, but also parameter specific. The uncertainty quantification procedures with a constant CFL number based refinement are recommended to investigate the uncertainty comparing to the individual grid and time step study, in particular for the ALE solution where the time step is adjusted automatically as the grid changes. Thus, consideration should be given to updating the ITTC guidelines to incorporate the constant CFL based discretization approach.

基于SPH方法的M型快艇入水载荷仿真分析

[目的]为研究M型快艇典型截面结构入水过程中受到的水动力载荷,[方法]基于光滑粒子动力学(SPH)液-气两相流算法,模拟平板和弓形模型的入水过程,以验证所用算法的精确性。在此基础上,模拟M型快艇典型截面结构的入水过程,并与相关文献的试验结果进行比较。[结果]结果显示:两种结构入水过程的仿真结果与试验结果吻合较好。M型快艇入水过程中存在二次砰击现象,即在主船体斜升角较大时会导致第1次砰击载荷较小,若斜升角过大时第2次砰击过程中结构则受到的砰击载荷会显着增加。[结论]研究结果表明,SPH两相流算法可以很好地模拟M型快艇入水过程,斜升角的设计大小应适当。

结合模型试验,基于数值重构和外推的计算模型,采用时域全耦合分析方法,对浮式半潜平台全尺寸锚泊系统以及风、浪、流载荷的联合作用进行模拟,针对动力辅助锚泊定位平台与锚泊定位平台在不同作业水深下的波浪砰击进行对比研究。研究结果表明：浮式半潜平台关注点处波浪砰击次数受作业水深的影响敏感。平台在同等环境工况下,关注点处负气隙以及波浪砰击次数随着作业水深的增加而加剧。动力辅助锚泊定位平台较之于锚泊定位平台的随动性更好,可有效减小平台与水质点的相对运动,作业水深变化引起的动力辅助锚泊定位平台同一关注点的砰击次数、气隙变化以及改善幅值明显优于锚泊定位平台。在平台设计过程中,作业水深对平台气隙和波浪砰击的影响应引起重视。

VLCC在波浪中弹性响应的理论与模型试验研究

商船的大型化发展使得船长变得越来越长.这将导致大型船舶在大洋中航行时船体梁产生由于流固耦合作用引起的波激振动和砰击颤振.文章采用模型试验和理论预报方法研究了一艘VLCC在满载和压载条件下的低频和高频垂向波浪载荷响应特性.试验模型长度超过6m,采用两根非均匀截面梁来连接模型分段,并在分段处测量模型横剖面处的垂向弯矩.理论计算采用二维非线性切片理论和三维线性水弹性理论,预报结果和模型试验结果进行了比较.分析发现船体梁的波激振动易在小波高和低波浪周期下发生,尤其是船体梁的两节点垂向湿谐振频率为遭遇波浪频率整数倍的时候.波幅增大后,船体梁还将发生砰击颤振.波浪持续激励时波激振动和砰击颤振往往会耦合发生,由于船体梁小结构阻尼的影响,目前的技术手段难以从船体梁总振动中把它们分离开来.船舶的装载条件会对船体梁的振动特性尤其是波激振动产生较大的影响,研究发现压载条件下的波激振动响应要比满载条件下的严重,在已有文献中提到这种影响的机理在文中得到了模型试验和理论计算的再验证.
