Abstract

To meet the engineering requirements of long-distance and high-precision elevation transfer under adverse sea conditions, a new structure for a combined survey platform based on the basic principle of vibration reduction and isolation is designed in this paper. The combined survey platform uses the barrier effect of the external support system on the wave-current load to reduce the influence of the wave-current load on the internal support system and the platform, so it can maintain good performance, even in harsh sea conditions, under the premise of no collision between the internal and external support systems. The expected working performance of the structure was verified by numerical simulation, and the influence of the layout, structure size, waves, and water flow on the working performance of the structure was quantitatively analyzed. The results show that: (1) the external support system can better realize the barrier effect of the wave-current load and significantly reduce the influence of the wave-current load on the internal support system and platform; (2) for the independent combined survey platform, when the pile diameters of the internal and external support systems are 0.8 m and 1.2 m and the wall thicknesses are 11.0 mm and 12.0 mm, respectively, the period of the wave is 8.0 s, the water depth is 20.0 m, the speed of water flow is 1.0 m/s, and the wave height is 4.0 m, then the maximum variation of the vertical angle of the platform is only 19.3″; (3) for the attached combined survey platform, the lateral stiffness of the external support system is increased and the displacement of the external support system is significantly reduced because the external support system is connected with the cushion cap through the attachments; therefore, the structure size of the survey platform can be greatly reduced.
