Simplified computational method for mooring forces of mooring systems [PDF]

open access: yesVibroengineering Procedia, 2015
The most common marine mooring systems of floating structures are taken as the numerical models. The effects of wave parameters and structural parameters on the wave forces are studied. A simplified formula of wave forces is established and the valuing ranges of key parameters are determined. Results obtained by the simplified computational method show

Experimental Study on Hydrodynamic Characteristics of Barge-Type Breakwaters under Different Mooring Methods

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023
In this paper, a yacht project in Tingjiang Town, Mawei, Fujian, is suggested as an example of a barge type breakwater made out of scrap barges. The physical modelling of a two-dimensional flume wave test was carried out on a barge-type breakwater ...

Dynamic Inversion Model of the Mooring Force on a Floating Bollard of a Sea Lock

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023
Sea locks that connect inland canals and rivers to the open sea are crucial links that ensure the efficient navigation of ships. Floating bollards (FBs) are significant components of sea locks, and they are affected by factors such as large ships, speed ...
