DEVELOPMENT OF FLOATING OCEAN PLATFORM FOR THE STUDY OF AIR-SEA INTERACTION - MODEL EXPERIMENTS IN WAVES USING SMALL MODEL

An experimental study on the dynamics of a floating ocean platform was carried out. The motions of a platform model in regular waves were measured using image processing which was developed on a very small model for this experiment. The experimental study showed that the accuracy of the measuring system is very good and the motions of the model in regular waves are small.
