Abstract:
This paper introduces new structures (DV, FL) on a set Ξ. They will be known as diving structures and floating structures. The pairs (Ξ,DV), (Ξ,FL) will be called diving spaces and floating spaces, respectively. These structures are not related to each other and are not related to any of the previous common structures such as topology, ideal, filter, grill or primal. We study some properties to characterize these new notions. Separation axioms and connectedness will be defined in these new spaces. When R is an equivalence relation on Ξ, rough sets in diving spaces and rough sets in floating sp

Abstract:
Floating Breakwaters are used extensively to provide cost effective protection from wind and vessel waves. Floating breakwaters are commonly multitasked, being used as a point of mooring for vessels or simply an access way to other pontoons in a small boat harbour, as well as their main function as wave dissipators. A floating breakwater does not completely stop the incident wave; rather it partially transmits, partially reflects and partially dissipates the wave energy.

Abstract:
The development of large-scale floating structures is recognized by the American Society of Civil Engineers as a critical step towards resilient coastal cities for climate change adaptation (ASCE, 2019). Yet, a lack of design guidelines acts to limit their development at the community scale. In response, we demonstrate and validate the applicability of a simplified analytical procedure against numerical solutions to elucidate the dynamics of a freely-floating pontoon-building system.

The validity and utility of the model were confirmed through good agreements between the numerical results and experimental ones in terms of the dynamic response of the floating panel and the pressure at the bottom of the panel. The numerical results revealed that the model can appropriately simulate the pressure acting

In this way, potential energy functions are efficiently obtained. The resulting analytical formulations offer a wider understanding of the hydrostatic stability of floa

This study will highlight the motion characteristics of single body and multiple bodies of offshore structures due to the effect of hydrodynamic interaction by considering the gap distance, the presence of number of neighboring structures and the wave direction headings. In order to analyze the added mass, radiation damping and motion responses that are developed during the interaction between structures, commercial software ANSYS AQWA is used. The analysis are executed by using 100 m diameter of round-shaped FPSO as the reference point for a single body where it is compared with two bodies an

Abstract:
The water area in which water depth is deeper than 50m has special advantage in wind turbine generation, because there are the stable wind speed and small Wind-shear. In such sea area, the offshore wind energy generating equipments should be set up on floating foundation structure. Therefore, it is of great significance to study the floating foundation structures that are available for offshore wind energy generation for the industrialization of the offshore wind power generation. In this paper, the basic type and working principles are reviewed for some novel floating structures developed in

Abstract:
The civil engineering structures with floating column are a regular element in the cutting edge multistory construction. Such elements are profoundly undesirable in building implicit seismically dynamic ranges. This study highlights the significance of expressly perceiving the vicinity of the structures with and without floating columns. Seismic analysis is carried out on G+7 story building with different alternative location for floating column considering the presence and absence of infill effect.

Abstract:
The floating pier is a representative type of floating structure installed along the coast, primarily used as a facility for berthing and mooring ships. Additionally, ongoing attempts have been made to utilize it for various purposes, such as wave control and wave energy conversion structures. In this study, we experimentally investigated the reflection and motion characteristics of a pile-moored floating pier, which allows heave and limited roll motion, with respect to the presence of perforated structures and the attachment of submerged plates. The hydraulic experiment results indicated that

This paper deals with the numerical modelling of an innovative technology for harnessing wave energy and its power take-off system. The investigated wave energy converter is CECO, a device based on the principles of oscillating bodies that is being developed at the Faculty of Engineering of the University of Porto, Portugal. The particularity of this concept lies on the relative motion between a floating part and a supporting one, which is restricted to translations along an inclined direction. First, the wave energy converter is modelled in the frequency domain by means of a panel model that

Abstract:
Breakwaters for outer harbor facilities are considerably affected by wave conditions, rendering the control of caisson motion difficult. Its motion during breakwater installation is important to improve its operational efficiency and safety. In recent years, caisson motion has been studied using 3D solid-gas-liquid three-phase simulations. Nakamura et al. (2021) investigated the dynamic characteristics of floating caissons under regular and irregular waves. Takagi et al.

Aim of this note is to analyse the possible application of a Wave Energy Converter (WEC) as a combined tool to protect the coast and harvest energy. Physical model tests are used to evaluate wave transmission past a near-shore floating WEC of the wave activated body type, named DEXA. Efficiency and transmission characteristics are approximated to functions of wave height, period and obliquity. Their order of magnitude are 20% and 80%, respectively. It is imagined that an array of DEXA is deployed in front of Marina di Ravenna beach (IT), a highly touristic site of the Adriatic Coast. Based on

Abstract:
The so-called large multi-body floating offshore structure is a new type of offshore structure with a huge and extremely flat deck area, which has a promising prospect as a floating port and also in applications in the area of marine space exploitation. Due to its unique structural form, the hydrodynamic and structural response characteristics are very complex. Specifically, due to the instantaneous position variation in the body surface, the nonlinearity of the free surface, the interactions between floating bodies, and the elastic deformation of floating bodies, the nonlinear factors are sig
