| Summary: | agreement with the model test measurements. However, the An efficient method is developed to predict slow motion divergence effects are also included. An iterative- environmental loads are computed using the modified Morison equation based on slender-body approximation. The Hybrid fluctuation, time-varying structural displacement and axial forces due to convective acceleration, free-surface incremental Newmark-,3 scheme is employed to simulate the interactions, is used to predict wave kinematics accurately Linear Extrapolation wave kinematics models do not agree with predicted slow-drift motions using Wheeler Stretching and responses of slender compliant offshore structures in the Spar and a Floating Jacket Platform are in excellent structural responses in the time domain. It is observed that the measurements well. the predicted slow-drift motions of a Joint, Industry Project unidirectional irregular waves and currents. The up to the second order of wave steepness.
