The Dynamic Analysis and Vibration Suppression of TLP With Tuned Liquid Column Damper

In this thesis , the response of tension leg platform¡]TLP¡^subjected to wave force is studied by means of an analytical stochastic technique. The effectiveness of tuned liquid column damper¡]TLCD¡^and the effectiveness of various parameters to the TLP is discussed. Also an experiment study is used to check the analytical solution.
Analytical solution show that all the parameters including the mass of the platform, the diameter of the floating barrel, the draft of the platform and the dimension of the platform will affect the TLP¡¦s resonant frequency and amplitude. When the TLCD is applied, the peak value is reduced for the surge and heave response spectrum generally, but the peak value of the pitch response spectrum is sometimes increased. The effectiveness of TLCD becomes more significant when the width-length ratio is increased. If the mass of TLCD is constant, the effectiveness of TLCD will be the same no matter water or mercury is injected into. Comparing the analytical solution with that from experiments, the results show reasonable consistence in trend.
