Difference of tension on mooring line by buoy type
The difference of mooring tension by type of buoy was investigated in the circulating water channel and the wave tank for deducting the most stable buoy from the current and the wave condition. 5 types of buoy made up of short cylinder laid vertically (CL-V), short cylinder laid horizontally (CL-H), capsule (CS), sphere (SP) and long cylinder (CL-L ...

Numerical Study on Hydrodynamic Responses of Floating Rope Enclosure in Waves and Currents
Enclosure aquaculture is a healthy and ecological aquaculture pattern developed in recent years to relieve the pressure due to the wild fish stock decline and water pollution. The object of this paper was a floating rope enclosure, which mainly consisted

Modeling and Numerical Simulation of Semitensioned Mooring Line under Taut-Slack State
In this paper, considering the mooring system can be taut-slack in the motion, the dynamic equations of the mooring system are derived by using the theory of large deformation.

The Snap Tension Analysis of Taut‐Slack Mooring Line with tanh Method [PDF]
The continuous model is introduced, and the nonlinear partial differential equations of taut‐slack mooring line system are transferred to nonlinear algebraic equations through tanh method, and four solitary solutions are obtained further. At the same time, to express the results clearly, the curve surfaces of strains, displacements, and tension are ...

Influence of Mean Tension on Mooring Line Fatigue Life [PDF]
Abstract Studies published in recent years have documented a significant mean load effect on fatigue capacity for offshore mooring chain, and show that a reduction of the mean load gives an increase in fatigue life. However, current S-N design curves are based on fatigue tests performed at a mean load of 20% of minimum breaking load (MBL)
