The importance of dynamic mooring analysisin the Pacific coast to improve operability and safety of nautical operations

The specific conditions of the Pacif coast, with high wave energy content, generatea marked impact over moored ships at jetties or buoysystems. Although the usual waveconditionsdo not involve impressive wave heights, the dominant presence of longperiods (between 12 and 25 seconds) causes very significant interaction forces on the moored vessels. Due to these circumstances, high…
