Challenge • To design mooring systems, the tension in the mooring lines, the movement of the floater, anchor capacity, and interactions of lines with the seabed must be assessed. Developing an optimum design can be a complex and challenging task when considering various line types, complex environmental loading effects, and the large number of possible layouts. Solution • ProteusDS features a cubic-spline lumped mass cable model that is used for modeling mooring lines. The model can be used to simulate a variety of flexible structures: risers, pipes, beams, umbilicals, synthetic fibre or elastomeric ropes, and chains. • The ProteusDS hydrodynamic m
