FIXMOOR User's Guide. Beta Version. Fixed Mooring Analysis

Abstract

This manual presents a description of the Fixed Mooring Analysis Program and the various files used in conjunction with the program. The capabilities are summarized so the user will understand under what conditions the program is useful. A section is included to give the user an understanding of how the specific load conditions are considered. A set of assumptions and guidelines are also presented to assist in setting up specific ship/pier configurations for computer modeling. Procedures are detailed for entering data and appendices are included for sample problems, ship properties characteristics, fender load-deflection data, and mooring line elongation characteristics.
