Design of Single-Point Mooring System with Moored Buoy

open access: yesDEStech Transactions on Engineering and Technology Research, 2018
The single-point mooring system is currently under a wide range of applications in marine engineering, marine observation, marine farming and other engineering fields. So this paper intends to investigate into the singlepoint mooring system with moored buoy that is made up of a buoy, four steel pipes, a steel drum, a heavy ball, an anchor chain and an ...

Numerical analysis of a tethered‐buoy mooring system for a prototype floating wind farm

open access: yesWind Energy
Conventional mooring systems contribute significantly to the cost of floating wind projects, and innovative solutions with cost‐saving potentials are desired. In the present paper, we investigate the fundamental dynamic behavior of an innovative tethered‐

Design and comparative analysis of mooring systems for a combined wind and wave energy system at intermediate water depth

open access: yesJournal of Ocean Engineering and Science
For intermediate water depths (typically ranging from 50 m to 80 m), designing steel catenary mooring systems for floating marine renewable energy (FMRE) platforms can be challenging due to the limited weight of suspended mooring lines.

Frequency-domain modeling of floating wind arrays with shared mooring lines [PDF]

open access: yesWind Energy Science
A frequency-domain model for floating wind turbine dynamics has been extended to model floating wind farms with couplings from shared mooring systems. The model, called RAFT, could previously calculate the mean offsets and wave-induced response spectra ...
