Validation of Computer Models of Cable System Dynamics.
Abstract
Comparisons are made between measurements taken during four series of dynamic cable experiments and simulations of the experimental events using two computer models, SEADYN and SNAP-LOAD, under the sponsorship of the Naval Civil Engineering Laboratory. Three of the experiments were conducted in laboratory water tanks using an elastically stiff nylon cord and a soft silicon rubber cable. The fourth experiment was the deployment of a full-size instrumented subsurface mooring in 2,5000 feet of water off Kauai, Hawaii as part of the joint Mooring Dynamics Experiment (MDE).
