Analysis of the Hydroelastic Performance of Very Large Floating Structures Based on Multimodules Beam Theory

The hydroelastic behavior of very large floating structures (VLFSs) is investigated based on the proposed multimodules beam theory (MBT). To carry out the analysis, the VLFS is first divided into multiple submodules that are connected through their gravity center by a spatial beam with specific stif...
