Wave Loads and Protective Techniques of An On-Shore Wave Power Device

In this paper, the extreme wave loads on an on-shore wave power device are investigated. First, boundary element method is applied to solve the three dimensional potential problem based on the small amplitude wave assumption. Then the motion of the Oscillating Water Column (OWC) inside the device and its laods on the device are calculated in time domain. Several protective techniques often applied are simulated by changing the constraint of the upper end of the chamber of the device. Numerical results are used to judge the effectiveness of these techniques. The investigation shows that damping can not effectively restrain the motion of OWC when the period of incident wave is long, which may cause dangerous loads on the structure. The shut chamber can effectively restrain the motion of OWC, but alternatively cause high pressure in the chamber. A Contracting opening with a Taper (CT) can exhaust a great amount of kinetic energy of OWC, and significantly decrease the loads. It is a promising protective tec     

Numerical Analysis of Wave Forces on Arbitrarily Shaped Multi-Pillars Over Varying Topography

The modified hybrid element method (MHEM) is utilized to predict and analyze wave forces on arbitrarily shaped multiple bodies. This method can be applied to waves of all water depths, i. e. shallow, intermediate, and deep waters, on slowly varying seabed. The MHEM employs the ICCG method to save CPU and storage, thus the computation of wave forces for large multi-body systems can be carried out on microcomputers. Numerical results of the present method are compared with experimental data and other solutions. It is shown that the MHEM provides more accurate solutions of the wave forces than other numerical methods do. Therefore, the methodology presented herein can be used in the design of coastal and ocean structures.     

紫外线照射剂量对九孔鲍胚胎及幼虫的影响

采用不同的紫外线照射剂量的海水诱导九孔鲍产卵,观察其对卵子的受精率、畸形率和孵化率的影响.紫外线照射剂量的配制方法是:用紫外线照射过的最大剂量的海水与新鲜海水混合配制出各种剂量的海水.实验把雌亲鲍分成7组,每组20只,分别用紫外线照射剂量为0(对照组)、450、600、750、900、1 050和1 200mW.h/dm3的海水进行刺激产卵.试验重复3次.结果表明,紫外线照射剂量在1 200mW.h/dm3以内,对卵子的受精率影响不大;紫外线照射剂量在750mW.h/dm3以内,对卵子的畸形率影响不大,但在900~1 200mW.h/dm3,对卵子的畸形率影响很大;紫外线照射剂量在600mW.h/dm3以内,对卵子的孵化率没有什么影响,但在750~1 200mW.h/dm3,对卵子的孵化率影响很大.综合考虑卵子的受精率、畸形率和孵化率,九孔鲍催产的适宜的紫外线照射剂量应为450~750mW.h/dm3.

Shear Failure of a Clamped Dented Tubular Beam Under Lateral Impact

- The shear failure of a rigid-plastic dented clamped tubular beam under the lateral impact of a mass is investigated. Both the denting and the impact point are in the middle span of the beam. It is assumed that denting does not spread during the shear sliding. Numerical results show that the axial force and lateral deflection of the beam are very small at the moment of the occurence of shear failure, which means that the finite deformation effect can be neglected in the shear failure analysis. Also, some aspects of the initial impact energy are investigated.

Elasto-Plastic Analysis of Tubular Joints of Offshore Platforms by Finite Element Method

The plastic node method is reformulated by the variational principle and is applied to elasto-plastic finite element analysis of tubular joints, eventually including the effect of internal and external gussets, stiffener rings, etc., if necessary. Four different joints are studied here in detail for the elasto-plastic behavior, the strain at the hot spot, the strain concentration factor around the intersection line, and the propagation of the plastic region with loading up to collapse in order to determine the ultimate strength, safety factor, and development of the plastic field. The present results are in good agreement with the experimental results.
