In this paper, a passive control system (double horizontal tuned mass damper (TMD)) is used to mitigate the surge motion of TLP that is under regular waves. Also the efficiency and performance of double horizontal TMD and single horizontal TMD in reduction of surge response is compared. 1. INTRODUCTION.

Jul 24, 2024 · The present study evaluates the response control of TLP with tuned mass damper under different sea state environments. The damper is positioned such that the mass center of the primary and secondary system is concurrent.

Oct 1, 2014 · Offshore tension leg platform (TLP) is a compliant type offshore structure where the tendons are deployed under initial pretension to counteract the excessive buoyancy. TLPs show large amplitude response under environmental loads due to their compliancy, which poses threat under extreme loads.

Jan 22, 2016 · Response control of offshore tension leg platforms (TLP) using a passive damper is studied. The study is attempted to control the large surge motion of a TLP. Tuned mass damper (TMD) is used for the control purpose as it effectively controls the motion of the primary structure under the lateral loads.
