Abstract: In order to solve the problem of safety and working performance of floating platform in complex environment sea area, the measures to improve the stability of floating platform were put forward. The swing arm float wave energy conversion device was mounted on the floating platform, a multi-body coupled hydrodynamic model of the swing arm float array and the floating platform was established, and the AQWA hydrodynamic simulation software was used to carry out numerical simulation and parametric analysis to reveal the interaction mechanism between the swing arm float array and the stability of the floating platform, and the effect of the shape and number of swing arm floats and the wave period on the stability of the floating platform were obtained, and the optimal swing arm float carrying method was found. The results showed that the floating platform equipped with swing arm float could better reduce the sloshing amplitude, and the hemispherical swing arm float could significantly reduce the pitch amplitude of the platform compared with cylindrical and conical swing arm floats. The increase of the number of swingarm float arrays would gradually reduce the shaking amplitude of the platform. In the case of a given wave height and changing the period, the floating platform equipped with swing arm floats could significantly reduce the shaking amplitude, but with the increase of the number of swing arm floats, the improvement of platform stability was less obvious. Therefore, if only the stability of the platform was considered, a small number of swing arm floats could be equipped to reduce costs, and if the wave energy device was considered to supply power to the platform, a large number of swing arm floats could be equipped to improve energy supply.

Key words: wave energy, swing-arm float array, floating platforms, wave absorption and roll reduction, AQWA simulation
