摘要:Gravity-type fish cages are playing an increasingly important role in fishery aquaculture. As the main load-bearing component of gravity-type fish cages, the floating collar supports the whole cage and undergoes large deformations. In this paper, a numerical method is developed to study the motions and elastic deformations of an HDPE floating collar in waves. The governing equations of motions are established by Newton's second law, and those governing the deformations are obtained according to the curved beam theory and the modal superposition method. Damping of the elastic deformations is introduced and analysed in detail to improve the numerical model. To validate the numerical model, a series of physical model tests are conducted. Good agreement between the numerical and experimental data is obtained. The numerical results indicate that the in-plane and out-of-plane deformations calculated using the first four modes yield satisfactory precision. The positions of the maximum deformations in different wave propagation directions and the effect of the forms of the mooring line arrangement have also been investigated. The numerical results show that the four-point-mooring cage is more reliable than the single-point-mooring cage. The endpoints of the diameters that are parallel or perpendicular to the wave direction have the largest deformation. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
