Mathematical model for coupled roll and yaw motions of a floating body in regular waves under resonant and non-resonant conditions. (English) Zbl 1147.70307

Summary: The prediction of resonance is very important with respect to the vessels stability in the early stages of design. In this paper, an efficient modeling approach is presented to determine coupled roll and yaw motions of a symmetric and slender floating body when the influences of small amplitude regular waves are dominant. The angular motions described in time domain by considering all internal and external forces are transformed into frequency domain to obtain motion characteristics. We adopt a semi-analytical treatment to obtain roll and yaw motions and derive system instability due to roll resonance. To compute hydrodynamic forces, we employ strip theory method where frequency dependent sectional added-mass, damping and restoring coefficients are derived from the Frank’s close-fit curve. Numerical experiments carried out for a vessel of mass 19,190 ton under the action of wave of frequencies 0.56 and 0.76 rad/s with zero and non-zero initial conditions are reported and the effect of various parameters on system stability is investigated. Model results indicate that damping factor \((\varsigma)\) plays a pivotal role when wave encountering frequency \((\omega)\) and undamped natural frequency \((\beta)\) are nearly equal. The essence of this study lies in the efficient modeling technique to evaluate damping factor and critical encountering frequency regime for a given ship particulars when experimentally derived resonance zone is absent.
