Abstract
Structures floating in the ocean experience various kinds of external loads, among which wave load is considered as determining factor in structural design. Its relative size compared with wavelength may be used to classify whether the structure is relatively small or large. Traditionally, the small structures are assumed to have little diffraction and the wave loads on large structure are usually calculated by only considering inertia force according to diffraction. In this paper, rectangular floating structures usually used in the ocean, river, and lake are used to find the relationship between hydrodynamic forces and its structural response.
