Response of pile-guided floats subjected to dynamic loading [PDF]
, 2013 Pile-guided floats can be a desirable alternative to stationary berthing structures. Both floats and guide piles are subjected to time varying (dynamic) forces such as wind-generated waves and impacts from vessels.

MOORING FORCES INDUCED BY PASSING SHIPS - MEASUREMENTS IN PROTOTYPE
Coastal Engineering Proceedings, 1980 In the present study the mooring systems of four bulk carriers which were moored at a jetty located parallel to a navigable water were investigated with special regard to forces due to passing ships. The objective of this study was to verify in praxi the present knowledge of moored vessels berthed at more protected sites and to prove proposed models of
