Solo Duck Mooring Forces

2017
One of the major difficulties in the design of a wave energy device is the occasional occurrence of severe conditions at sea. The largest waves far exceed typical amplitudes over the year. Although it would be possible to make devices large enough to capture the power efficiently in these conditions, it is almost certainly not economical to do so ...

Analytical Determination of Ship Motions and Mooring Forces

Offshore Technology Conference, 1974
ABSTRACT This paper describes a computer program which calculates the three translator motions heave, surge and sway - and the three rotary motions - roll, pitch and yaw - of a ship, represented by a rectangular block, moored in regular waves of given height and period approaching from an arbitrary direction ...

Forces Related to Motions of Moored Ships/ Analytical Methods of Moored Ship Motions

1988
The behaviour of moored ships in harbours, coastal areas or offshore is extremely complex, due to nonlinearities and dynamic effects. It is of vital importance to have methods available by which the behaviour of the moored ship can be predicted in the design stage, in order to determine the extreme loads in the worst conditions and to assess the ...

Model Testing of Forces in the Reflector Joint and Mooring Forces on Wave Dragon

2005
This report aims to present the results of a test series analysing the forces in the redesigned reflector joint and the forces in the main mooring link. The resluts presented are intended to be used by WD project partners, for the design and construction of the joint on the prototype Wave Dragon at Nissum Bredning and for future North Sea scale Wave ...
