Evaluating the Validity of Quasi-Static Analysis for Prediction of Vessel Mooring Line Forces
Quasi-Static analysis of moored vessels is vastly used for engineering designs, as a substitute to the numerical simulation of dynamic mooring analysis. Yet, the level of validity of the results of quasi-static analysis is a matter of discussion.

PHYSICAL MODEL TEST OF THE MOORED CONTAINER SHIP MOTION AND THE RELATED INDUCED MOORING FORCE
To optimize structure design it is useful to conduct detail physical model tests. Tests of various basic physical phenomena (e.g. resonance problems), reproducing a sea state of prototype duration and then from the behavior of entire structure, the optimal design to the wharf structure will be obtained.

Design of automatic thruster assisted mooring systems for ships [PDF]
This paper addresses the mathematical modelling and controller design of an automatic thruster assisted position mooring system. Such control systems are applied to anchored floating production offloading and storage vessels and semi-subs. The controller

The role of cable stiffness in the dynamic behaviours of submerged floating tunnel
Submerged floating tunnel (SFT) is a new solution for the transportation infrastructure through sea straits, fjords, and inland waters and can be a good alternative to long span suspension bridges and immersed tunnels. The mooring cables/anchors are main

The Dynamics of a Forced Moored Sphere in Oscillatory Waves
A floating fisheries bank is a floating body of a distinctive shape, which is moored by a single line in the middle layer of sea. Its function is to gather the migratory fish and surface and middle layer fish. Though they were developed only a few years ago, many floating fisheries banks are being utilized and they are regarded as highly efficient, but
