Abstract:This paper proposes a multi-module assembly floating dock, which is assembled by a pin-jointed hinge structure between modules. Based on the design wave method, the three-dimensional potential flow theory is used to calculate the loads and analyze the strength of the assembly floating dock, and the configuration is optimized and analyzed. The results show that the longitudinal torque load in the wave load of the floating dock is the largest, and the maximum stress area is the connection between the platform an… Show more
