Influence of Heave Plate on the Dynamic Response of a 10 MW Semisubmersible Floating Platform by Haijun Wang, Yuhang Yang, Yaohua Guo, Jijian Lian

“…The platform’s structural behavior is analyzed in both frequency and time domains using numerical simulation methods. The study investigates the effects of the porosity and number of holes (with an equal porosity) of the inner heave plate and the opening angle (with the equal area) of the external heave plate on the platform’s hydrodynamic characteristics, ultimately obtaining the optimal arrangement for the inner and external heave plates. …”
