Abstract:A second order frequency-domain model implemented by a boundary element method was developed for wave elevation around structures. The diffraction of monochromatic waves by a square array of truncated cylinders and a simplified TLP was studied with this model, and the wave run up and the free surface elevation around the structures were presented. The computation results show that the near-trapping phenomena occurs inside the structures, which leads to increased wave height. Special concerns were paid on the examination of the carucial frequencies and maximum wave height of the near-trapping phenonmenon. ? 2012 by International Society of Offshore and Polar Engineers.
