THE ENGINEERING APPLICATIONS OF A REPORT ENTITLED 'THE MOTIONS OF A MOORED CONSTRUCTION TYPE BARGE IN IRREGULAR WAVES AND THEIR INFLUENCE ON CONSTRUCTION OPERATION',
Abstract
The contents of the reference Report (AD-296 311) were summarized. The ways that this report can be used at three different levels of complexity were described. These three ways are (a) to determine the behavior of the particular barge of the report in the particular seaways treated in the report, (b) to determine the behavior of the particular barge of the report in seaways other than those treated in the report, and (c) to determine the behavior of barges of different design configurations in arbitrary seaways. The first way, (a), that this report can be used was illustrated by an example in which pertinent data were extracted from the report and discussed. The other two ways, (b) and (c), were described briefly. Were (b) and (c) developed further, their final output would be similar to that of (a). (Author)
