In the past several decades, extensive investigations have been carried out on the hydroelastic responses of Very Large Floating Structures (VLFS) in the deep open sea by researchers around the world. However, when tackling the hydroelastic problems of VLFS used as the protection and exploitation of marine resources near offshore and islands, the effects of complex environments, such as the seabed profile and inhomogeneous wave conditions should be taken into account. Based on the development history of VLFS and the process of classical hydroelasticity of VLFS, the research results of hydroelastic responses of VLFS in complex environments have been systematically summarized in this paper, so as to provide a basis for the further research.

在过去的几十年中，世界范围内的研究人员对深海中的大型漂浮结构（VLFS）的水弹性响应进行了广泛的研究。但是，在解决VLFS的水弹性问题时，VLFS用作近海和岛屿附近海洋资源的保护和开发，应考虑到复杂环境的影响，例如海床剖面和不均匀的波浪情况。根据VLFS的发展历史和VLFS的经典水弹性过程，系统地总结了复杂环境下VLFS的水弹性响应的研究成果，为进一步的研究提供依据。
