Abstract

Several troubles will occur because that floating marine structures are shaken by waves. So, the reduction mechanism for motions of the floating body has been developed. This mechanism was adopted TMD (Tuned Mass Damper), and experiments has been done to estimate reduction effects for this mechanism. As a result, it is obtained that reduction effects are influenced by TMD natural period which is based on the relation between springs and weights, and heaving and pitching motion on a specific period can be reduced by this mechanism.
