Program Development to Study Faired Towlines.

Abstract

A computer program has been developed to study the interactions beween hydrodynamic loading and structural response of flexible, faired, underwater towing cables. The equilibrium shape of the cable's cross-section when it is moving at an angle of attack in a steady two-dimensional viscous flow (Field) is computed. (Author)
