Impact analysis of air gap motion with respect to parameters of mooring system for floating platform

Experimental investigation of freak wave actions on a floating platform and effects of the air gap

“…In the category of floating structures, some research efforts have been focused on the air gap response of semisubmersible platforms under both regular and random waves (Li et al, 2020;Lu et al, 2020;Shan et al, 2011;Shen et al, 2017). The air gap or deck clearance has significant effects on the wave actions and structural responses when waves attack floating platforms.…”
