Description/Abstract
The application developments of a mixed finite element method for transient dynamic analysis of fluid-structure interaction systems (FSIS) in maritime engineering are summarised in this paper. Following the mathematical equations governing generalised FSIS, three problems involving maritime engineering, de-veloped in Marstruct Project, are presented to illustrate the applications of the developed numerical method. Problem 1 investigates the sloshing frequencies of a liquid storage tank and its dynamic response excited by the El Centro earthquake data. Problem 2 analyses the dynamic response of a LNG tank-water interaction sys-tem subject to an explosion pressure wave on a water boundary. Problem 3 considers the dynamic response of a structure-acoustic volume interaction system subject to human footfall impacts, which may be used to simu-late ship deck vibration caused by human footfall loads to obtain a comfortable living environment of passen-gers. The numerical results are discussed and analysed to provide the related guidelines for the designs of maritime products involving fluid-structure interactions.
