Most offshore structures including offshore wind turbines, 9x11 pergola ships, etc.suffer from the impulsive pressure loads due to slamming phenomena in rough waves.The effects of elasticity & plasticity on such slamming loads are investigated through wet free drop test results of several steel unstiffened flat bottom bodies in the rectangular water tank.Also, their cumulative deformations by consecutively repetitive free drops from 1000 mm to 2000 mm in height are measured.Keywords: Slamming phenomena, Impulsive pressure load, feline 1-hcpch vaccine Wet free drop test, Flat bottom body, Cumulative damage.
