    1) The document discusses the coupled sway and roll motions of a freely floating buoy in regular incident waves. 2) Equations are derived for the coupled sway and roll motions, accounting for added mass and the restoring moment from inclining. 3) The natural frequency of the coupled oscillation is determined based on the restoring moment, added mass moment, and mass moment of the buoy.

    Introduction

    FREELY FLOATING BUOY


    Buoy in regular Incident
    wave in Deep Water
    Buoy is a cylinder with
    circular cross section
    Buoy does not generate
    any wave of significance
    Linear Potential Theory can
    be assumed

    SWAY MOTION ( )
    No Restoring Force ( C = 0 )
    No Damping Force ( B = 0 )
    Added Mass is not zero because of its dependency on Bod
    y Geometry, Frequency and Motion Mode.
    Added Mass has two components;
    1. Sway Added Mass due to Sway Motion ( A )
    2. Sway Added Mass due to Roll Motion ( A )

    ROLL MOTION ( )
    No Damping ( B = 0 )
    Restoring is present from Inclining Moment.
    i.e.
    C = gV T
    V = submerged volume of the foil
    = Density of Sea Water
    Added Moment has two components;
    1. Roll Added Moment due to Sway Motion ( A )
    2. Roll Added Moment due to Roll Motion ( A )

    Conclusion

    16

    CONCLUSION
    Buoy is having lesser mode of motions compared t
    o ship because of its shape.
    Damping is not discussed here which is very import
    ant for ships and offshore structures.
    Centre of Gravity is placed below Centre of Buoyan
    cy to achieve greater stability.
    Need to study further to understand the Physical be
    haviour of a floating body in sway and roll motions.
