Abstract:Pile-Guided floats can be a desirable alternative to stationary berthing structures. Both floats and guide piles are subjected to dynamic forces such as wind generated waves and impacts from vessels. This project developed a rational basis for estimating the dynamic response of pile-guided floating structures. The Dynamic Analysis Method (DAM) was used to model the response of the system. MATLAB was used to compute the analytic and numerical values obtained from the dynamic models. ANSYS AQWA was used to validate the dynamic analysis models used in this study.
