Abstract
Wave load is one of the main external loads for semi-submersible platform, which is usually calculated by design wave method. In the present research, three design wave methods are investigated and compared on design wave parameters determination of semi-submersible platforms, i.e., the deterministic design wave method, stochastic design wave method and long-term prediction design wave method. Moreover, the specified calculation methods and the detailed wave load computation procedure are summarized considering the load characteristics of global hydrodynamic response. Finally, a semi-submersible platform is regarded as objective and the design wave results of three design wave methods are compared and analyzed. The fundamental research can provide reference for rational selection of wave loads calculation method.
