Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

For various reasons, and due to various objects, many types of structures are needed in the ocean and in coastal regions. In general, offshore structures have been mainly constructed for the offshore oil and gas industries. Today, however, many innovative offshore structures are being actively developed, such as floating renewable energy facilities and floating transportation infrastructures. Moreover, the concept of smart ports and its application is being suggested worldwide. In addition, smart disaster prevention structures are needed against unexpected natural disasters in coastal regions due to the global climate crisis. To enhance the structural safety and operability of various innovative coastal and offshore structures, we should first investigate and understand the structural behavioral characteristics of the structures based on rational research methods and procedures. Then, we can develop effective design, analysis, optimization, monitoring, and maintenance methods. Therefore, we are inviting you to submit original work to this Special Issue on “Advances in Innovative Coastal and Offshore Structures” in areas including but not limited to:

- Development of innovative coastal and offshore structures

- Offshore renewable energy facilities

(floating wind turbine, floating photovoltaic platforms, etc.)

- Offshore floating transportation infrastructures

(submerged floating tunnels, long-span floating bridges, etc.)

- Smart disaster prevention structures in coastal regions

- Structures for smart ports

- Effective design and analysis methods for coastal and offshore structures

- Effective smart monitoring technologies for the coastal and offshore structures

In this study, the dynamic response of a multiconnected floating solar panel system with a vertical pontoon were studied under various scenarios. First, a floating solar panel pontoon is modeled by combining nine single-unit vertical cylinders (arranged in parallel, horizontally and vertically, 3 m apart from each other). Each cylinder will be considered a rigid body, and they are connected to each other with a frame, so that they can oscillate together. Each floating solar panel pontoon was connected to a steel pipe, and a hinged connector was attached to the connecting point of each steel pipe, while it was fixed at each pontoon. In this study, as a floating solar panel system, a 10 × 10 system was adopted at a water depth of 50 m. Furthermore, a catenary mooring system with steel wire rope was installed to enhance its station-keeping capability. As an environmental load, wave excitation force, under normal operating and extreme conditions, was considered. To confirm the dynamic behavior of the system, a connector boundary condition sensitivity test was conducted under a 0° heading (west to east). It has been proven that an unexpected dynamic response along the sway, roll, and yaw directions is observed in the hinged connector case, due to the second generated moment caused by the movement of the facilities. Furthermore, judging from extreme simulation results, the larger the external environmental loading, the greater the dynamic response of the system, due to amplified wave excitation forces. Finally, under the multiple mooring line failure scenario, the dynamic response of the system is significantly amplified, due to the loss of mooring tension, except for the roll response.
