Abstract

Linear theories to analyse a floating and liquid-filled membrane structure in head- and beam-sea waves have been presented. The dynamic solutions are based on a small perturbation of the static solution, and the hydroelastic deformation has been taken care of correctly to the first order of the incident wave amplitude. A new experiment has been carried out for measuring the dynamic tensions of a membrane. A comparison between the theories and experiment are presented for the dynamic hoop tension.
