In order to speed hydrodynamic calculations, lines modeling structures were separated into structural parts and then fitted to Non-uniform Rational B-spline (NURBS). In this way, the bow and stern section lines were generated. Modeling of the intersections of the parts was then done with the universal modeling tool MSC.Patran. Mesh was gererated on the model in order to obtain points of intersection on the joints, and then these points were fitted to NURBS. Next, the patch representation method was adopted to generate the meshes of wetted surfaces and interior free surfaces. Velocity potentials on the surfaces were calculated separately, on basis of which the irregular frequency effect was dealt with in the calculation of hydrodynamic coefficients. Finally, the motion response of the semi-submersible was calculated, and in order to improve calculations of vertical motion, a damping term was affixed in the vertical direction. The results show that the above methods can generate fine mesh accurately representing the wetted surface of a semi-submersible and thus improve the accuracy of hydrodynamic calculations.展开更多

The larger difference in the charge density （pUp_pdown） for edge bare N atoms and decaying for N sub-lattices away from the edge, as well as the smaller difference in the charge density for edge bare Ga atoms and without decaying for Ga sub-lattices away from the edge is consistent with the magnetic moment of a GaNNR with bare N edge being larger than that of a GaNNR with bare Ga edge. The magnetic moment of a zigzag edge GaNNR （ZGaNNR） with bare N （Ga） edge has nearly half the value of the magnetic moment of a AGaNNR with bare N （Ga） edge. Such a relationship also exists in the number of extra dangling bond states appearing around the Fermi level in the band structures. For ZGaNNRs, the magnetic moment of bare N and Ga edges is larger than either bare N edge or bare Ga edge, but smaller than their sum, implying that there exists an interaction between the dangling bonds at both edges of bare N and Ga edges.展开更多
