  • Deterministic and stochastic control of nonlinear oscillations in ocean structural systems

    Creator:
    King, Paul E.
    Abstract:
    Complex oscillations including chaotic motions have been identified in off-shore and submerged mooring systems characterized by nonlinear fluid-structure interactions and restoring forces. In this paper, a means of controlling these nonlinear oscillations is addressed. When applied, the controller is able to drive the system to periodic oscillations of arbitrary periodicity....
