Abstract

For the structural feature of the Box-shaped Very Large Floating Structure(VLFS) with shallow draft, the VLFS may be subject to the large slamming load when its bottom happens to emergence in the state of the severe sea condition. Therefore, the safety of the VLSF against the slamming load has to be fully examined on its design stage.This paper describes the flow measurement using PIV concerning the deck wetness around the comer of VLFS in rough seas and the slamming due to the emergence of its bottom.
