Abstract

Une tour flottante de haute mer comporte des anneaux cylindriques de déflection de la mer disposés au-dessus d'une couronne de capacités de flottabilité enserrant une cloche d'amortissement pneumatique. Un lest est disposé à sa partie inférieure. Le diamètre extérieur est sensiblement constant. Les anneaux cylindriques de déflection convertissent l'impulsion horizontale des vagues en un mouvement vertical divergeant vers le haut.A deep sea floating tower has cylindrical sea deflection rings arranged above a ring of buoyancy capabilities enclosing a pneumatic damping bell. A ballast is placed at its lower part. The outer diameter is substantially constant. The cylindrical deflection rings convert the horizontal wave impulse into a vertical upward diverging motion.
