Frequency Domain Analysis for the Tension in a Taut Mooring Line

Abstract

The report provides a frequency domain analysis for the tension in long, taut mooring lines. The analysis considers both the steady state and dynamic conditions. Computer programs for the analysis of both cases are included. The requirement of linearity of the system evident in frequency domain analysis calls for linearization of such features as drag and internal damping. These matters are dealt with and the order of practical relevance discussed in a quantitative manner.
