Long Spine Mooring

In this report we present the specification of the mooring for the long spine model, and a detailed analysis of its static and dynamic characteristics. We describe the experimental investigations of the behaviour of the mooring alone, and coupled to the spine, in a variety of multidirectional seas r...
