In-line force on a cylinder translating in oscillatory flow

TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of wake-basing on the modified Morison equation was examined with smooth and sand-roughened cylinders moving with constant velocity in a sinusoidally oscillating flow to determine the drag and inertia coefficients.

Numerical studies on CALM buoy motion responses and the effect of buoy geometry cum skirt dimensions with its hydrodynamic waves-current interactions

TL;DR: In this paper , numerical investigations on a free-floating Catenary Anchor Leg Moorings (CALM) buoy were carried out and an Orcaflex-coupled model of the CALM buoy system with submarine hoses in Lazy-S configuration was presented.

Design and Model Experiments on Thruster Assisted Mooring System

TL;DR: In this paper, a dynamic positioning control of a moored floating platform model is studied, where Moorings are used to maintain the position of the platform against quasi-constant external forces induced by current and wind.

Hydrodynamic forces acting on a vertical circular cylinder oscillating with a very low frequency in waves

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the viscous damping force acting on a moored floating structure undergoing the slow-drift oscillation in irregular waves and found that the drag coefficients of a vertical cylinder oscillating with low frequencies in waves are quite different from those of a still water.
