Hydrodynamic interference between floating cylinders in oblique seas
AbstractThe hydrodynamic interference phenomena arising from multiple two-dimensional horizontal cylinders interacting with obliquely incident linear monochromatic waves are treated. A finite element method incorporating radiation boundary dampers is employed to solve the corresponding diffraction/radiation boundary value problems, where flexural mode responses are assumed. Both extreme cases of a rigidly connected catamaran and freely floating cylinders are studied in detail. Numerical results of both cases compare closely with those obtained by the method of multipoles. Important interference phenomena are identified which would assist in the design of facilities and operations involving multiple structures.
