ANALYSIS OF VERY LARGE FLOATING STRUCTURE USING ANSYS

Abstract

 The pontoon-type VLFS just floats (lies) on the sea surface. The pontoon-type VLFS is very flexible compared to other kinds of offshore structures, so that the elastic deformations are more important than their rigid body motions. Gill cells are introduced to minimizing the central deformation and stress of the floating structure. The gill cells are introduced within the floating structure with holes or slits at the bottom floor to allow water to flow in and out freely. In this floating structure containers are filled throughout the structure by using the crane at the end of the structure. If one layer is filled another layer is placed above the first layer. One layer of container loading also called as one tier loading. Up to eight tiers loading the structure has been analyzed.The 3D model of the floating structure is designed by using the pro e wildfire 5.0software. The analysis can be taken by ansys workbench 14.5 software to find the deformation, stress and strain values for different loading condition.
