This project aims to develop rigorous, physics-based models to accurately predict hydrodynamics of floating offshore structures at different scales. The project will address the issue between laboratory-to-field scaling, a fundamental problem in fluid dynamics. This outcome will be achieved through the integration of numerical technology, with physical modelling and field data acquisition. The outputs from this project will reduce risks and improve operability of existing offshore structures, and lead to more efficient design for potential floating offshore projects. This will benefit the whole community of floating offshore structures and cement Australia’s place as a pioneer in offshore industry and emerging renewable energy sector.

该项目旨在开发严格的、基于物理的模型，以准确预测不同尺度上海上浮式结构的水动力学。该项目将解决实验室到现场的缩放问题，这是流体动力学中的一个基本问题。这一结果将通过将数值技术与物理建模和现场数据采集相结合来实现。该项目的成果将降低风险，提高现有海上结构的可操作性，并为潜在的浮式海上项目带来更有效的设计。这将有利于整个浮式海上结构社区，巩固澳大利亚作为海上工业和新兴可再生能源领域先驱的地位。
