Hi,
I am working with the hydrodynamic simulation of a floating platform using Ansys Aqwa 2023 R1. The following query is specific to the “connection data” input of a catenary mooring line. <\/p>\n

Regarding Catenary mooring, lines have one ends attached to a point (fairlead) on the floating platform, and another end to a fixed point usually, at the bottom of water. A typical figure with a catenary mooring line is attached here from the Sea Loads book by O. M. Faltinsen.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Now, if we see the Aqwa input detail, I could not find a way to control the suspended line length (l_s) or (X-x) from the above figure. Instead it takes an input, maximum expected tension<\/strong>. May I know how to select a suitable value of this input<\/strong>? <\/p>\n

On the other hand, the weight of suspend length (l_s) of the mooring controls the vertical equilibrium position of the body, and tensions in the lines as well as stiffnesses. Could you please let me know how to find the suspended length of the mooring lines in Ansys Aqwa? <\/strong><\/p>\n
