A Study on the Minimization of Mooring Load in Fish-Cage Mooring Systems with a Damping Buoy

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2020
This study established the conditions in which mooring load is minimized in a fish cage that includes a damping buoy in specific wave conditions. To derive these conditions, numerical simulations of various mooring contexts were conducted on a fish cage (

Quasi-dynamic mooring line model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
The quasi-dynamic mooring line model is a new approach to assess the mooring line tension that considers the static solution of the catenary shape, but updates the distributed vertical force along the mooring line as a function of the external forces ...

Study on the Motion of a Moored Body and the Tension of Mooring Lines

open access: yesJournal of the Society of Naval Architects of Japan, 1975
In these years off-shore structures are built with various purposes. It is important problem to study about their mooring system. And this study is also important for ships. In this paper it is aimed to study the tension of mooring lines.Mooring tension was formerly calculated by what is called “catenary theory”, but it is calculated here by “corrected
