Abstract The growing demand for ocean space has generated significant interest in multi-body floating systems, where gap resonance in confined regions plays a critical role in ensuring the safety of offshore operations. This study develops a numerical tank model using the Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) method, implemented through the open-source code DualSPHysics, to investigate hydrodynamic resonance in a twin-floater system and to examine the influence of internal tank sloshing on its hydrodynamic characteristics. The hydrodynamic behavior of the gap flow between a fixed twin-floater system in the numerical tank is validated through systematic comparison with experimental… More >
