Dynamic Analysis of a Tension Leg Platforms (TLPs) Inspired by Parallel Robotic Manipulators
Dynamic performance of a tension leg platform (TLP) is analyzed using a robotic manipulator approach. The TLP is vertically anchored to the seabed by twelve mooring lines. A triangular mooring line configuration is studied.

Hydrodynamic Sensitivity of Moored and Articulated Multibody Offshore Structures in Waves
Within the framework of Space@Sea project, an articulated modular floating structure was developed to serve as building blocks for artificial islands. The modularity was one of the key elements, intended to provide the desired flexibility of additional ...

Moored offshore structures - evaluation of forces in elastic mooring lines
In most situations, the high frequency motions of the floating structure induce important effects in the mooring lines which affect also the motions of the structure. The experience accumulated during systematic experimental tests and calculations, carried out for different moored floating structures, showed a complex influence of various parameters on

Numerical Modelling for Synthetic Fibre Mooring Lines Taking Elongation and Contraction into Account
Synthetic fibre mooring lines are used as an alternative to traditional steel wire ropes due to their higher strength to weight ratio. Benefits are also found in relative ease of handling, and therefore the marine industry has largely accepted this type ...

Time-domain hydrodynamic analysis of pontoon-plate floating breakwater
The hydrodynamic behaviors of a floating breakwater consisting of a rectangular pontoon and horizontal plates are studied theoretically. The fluid motion is idealized as two-dimensional linear potential flow.

Experimental study of ship mooring force under action of landslide in Three Gorges Reservoir area
The Yangtze River, known as a "golden waterway", is the most important inland waterway in China. There are lots of ships in the waterway, many of which are in the mooring state due to loading or unloading and other reasons.
