Item Wave interaction with floating platform of different shapes and supports using BEM approach(Department of Naval Architecture and Marine Engineering mmkarim@name.buet.ac.bd, 2017) Shirkol, A.I.; Nasar, T.Wave interaction with a floating thin elastic plate which can be used as floating platform is analyzed using Boundary Element Method (BEM) for different shapes such as rectangular, circular and triangular. Different support conditions are considered and the performance of the floating platform under the action of ocean waves is explored. The study is performed under the assumption of linearized water wave theory and the floating elastic plate is modelled based on the Euler-Bernoulli beam theory. Using Galerkin’s approach, a numerical model has been developed and the hydrodynamic loading on the floating elastic plate of shallow draft (thickness) is investigated. The wave forces are generated by the numerical model for the analysis of the floating plate. The resulting bending moment and optimal deflection due to encountering wave force is analysed. The present study will be helpful in design and analysis of the large floating platform in ocean waves. © 2017 ANAME Publication. All rights reserved.Item Coupled BEM and FEM for the analysis of floating elastic plate with arbitrary shapes(Taylor and Francis Ltd. michael.wagreich@univie.ac.at, 2019) Shirkol, A.I.; Nasar, T.In order to analyse the hydroelastic behaviour of the floating thin elastic plate, a numerical model has been developed by coupling higher-order boundary element method (BEM) and finite element method (FEM). The present model is capable of investigating the very large floating structure of arbitrary shapes at finite and infinite water depths. The developed hybrid model contains the same nodes maintaining the same order and basis function in both the methods. The novelty of this work can be seen in the newly developed modified Green’s function. Two geometrical configurations (triangle and trapezoidal) have been analysed. The time required for convergence and deflection of the geometrical model have been captured. Furthermore, the results obtained by Wang and Meylan [2004. A higher-order-coupled boundary element and finite element method for the wave forcing of a floating elastic plate. J Fluids Struct. 19(4):557–572] are used to validate the developed numerical model. It is concluded that the model works better in finite water depth for trapezoidal shape. © 2019, © 2019 Informa UK Limited, trading as Taylor & Francis Group.
