With the development and utilization of ocean renewable energy, the role of floating large-scale multi-module composite foundations becomes more prominent. This study explores the design of multi-module floating platforms at sea, focusing on a composite platform composed of seven hexagonally interconnected modules with flexible connectors using steel cable-fender connectors. The research provides the wave frequency response characteristics of each module in the composite platform. The flexible connectors reduce the pitch motion of the modules and primarily bear loads influenced by the pitch motion of the modules. Additionally, the study finds that connector loads are greater in the parallel wave directions compared to oblique directions, providing insights for connector design.

摘要

With the development and utilization of ocean renewable energy, the role of floating large-scale multi-module composite foundations becomes more prominent. This study explores the design of multi-module floating platforms at sea, focusing on a composite platform composed of seven hexagonally interconnected modules with flexible connectors using steel cable-fender connectors. The research provides the wave frequency response characteristics of each module in the composite platform. The flexible connectors reduce the pitch motion of the modules and primarily bear loads influenced by the pitch motion of the modules. Additionally, the study finds that connector loads are greater in the parallel wave directions compared to oblique directions, providing insights for connector design.
