This paper presents a review of recent studies on the prediction of hydroelastic responses of a very large floating structure (VLFS). It is divided into the pontoon type and column-supported type structures. Studies on the pontoon type are divided further into the frequency-domain and time-domain analyses. A new calculation method for general time-dependent problems is also described, which is one of the future works required. The hierarchical interaction theory, developed recently by the author for analyzing hydrodynamic interactions among a large number of columns, is explained with some equations and numerical results. However, experimental work is not reviewed in detail, because this paper focuses on analytical calculation methods.
