Risk analysis and management of moored ships in ports
The risks associated with mooring of ships are a major concern for port and maritime authorities. Sea waves and extreme weather conditions can lead to excessive movements of vessels and mooring loads affecting the safety of ships, cargo, passengers, crew or port infrastructures. Normally, port activ...

The risks associated with mooring of ships are a major concern for port and maritime authorities.
