Simulation in Reduced Scale Hydraulic Models of the Mooring System of Ships Docked Under the Effect of the Passage of Other Vessels (Passing Ship)
Hydraulic Technological Center Foundation, Sao Paulo, Brazil; University of Sao Paulo, Sao Paulo, Brazil ABSTRACT: Vessels moored at port terminals may be subject to excessive strain on mooring lines, induced by other ships passing in their vicinity. This phenomenon is called hydrodynamic interaction, and well known in the international literature as Passing Ship. It occurs …
