본 논문은 파랑중에 다전 계류된 원유저장선에 대한 저주파수 운동을 수치 모사하였다. 시간영역에서의 운동방정식은 충격응답함수를 포함하여 수평면상의 운동 즉 전후, 좌우 및 선수 운동을 고려하였다. 시간영역의 운동방정식에 나타난 부가질량, 파랑감쇠계수, 1차항 파랑 강제력 그리고 2차항 파랑 강제력을 주파수 영역의 특이점 분포법을 사용하여 계산하였고, 다점 계류된 계류삭은 체인이 해저면에 닿은 운동 효과를 포함하여 준 정적 현수선 이론으로 산정되었다. 계산 예로서 장파정 불규칙 파랑 중에 놓인 바아지식 원유저장선에 대한 시간 영역 해석을 수행하였다.

A multi-leg spread mooring system for floating offshore structures is important, but the multi-leg static analysis is complicated due to the nonlinear behavior of each line and the effect of current which affects each line differently. The pretensioned position of the multi-leg mooring system obtained from the static equilibrium condition changes into a different position due to external loads and current. In this paper, the new position and the static tension at each line are caculated. The relation between the initial static equilibrium position and the new position due to the external loads is expressed in terms of the Taylor's series expansion. The Runge-Kutta $4^{th}$ method is employed in analyzing the 3-dimensional static cable nonlinear equations.

The time simulation of slow drift motions of moored FPSO in waves is presented. The equation of motion based on Cummin's theory of impulse responses are employed, and are consisted of horizonal plane -surge, sway and yaw. The added mass coefficients, wave damping coefficients, first order wave exciting forces and the second order wave drift forces involved in the equations are obtained from a three-dimensional panel method in the frequency domain. The mooring lines are modeled quasistatically as catenary for chains and touchdown. As for numerical example, time domain analyses are carried out for a box-type FPSO in long crest irregular wave condition.

For a spread-moored FPSO (Floating Production, Storage, & Off-loading) subjected to environmental excitation from waves, current, and wind, a procedure to determine optimum length and stiffness of mooring lines is suggested using quasi-static frequency domain response analyses. Coupled relations between design parameters are closely examined. In consideration of this, optimized design parameters are proposed based on minimum weight condition. The initial design parameters for numerical analyses are calculated using the static catenary equation of mooring lines. It is demonstrated the line tension and vessel's offset are influenced by the mooring line length and stiffness. Accordingly it is suggested the optimum vessel's offset range should be determined considering line fatigue damage. The availability and limitation of the application of quasi-static analysis method for spread mooring system are explained by comparing the result of time domain analysis with one of frequency domain analysis.

The spread mooring system for FPSO is developed to explore deep sea area, in which swell is dominant. It is known that the tension response of mooring lines in this sea area shows bimodal spectrum. Assuming normal distribution of tension profile and Rayleigh distribution of tension amplitude, the power spectral density function (PSD) of the mooring tension under the bimodal stationary random process is applied for the calculation of spectrum fatigue. Three popular methods, which are simple summation method, combined spectrum method and Jioa-Moan method, are used to combine fatigue damages from bimodal spectrum characteristics. Each damage value is compared with damage using Rainflow Cycle Counting (RCC) method which is believed to be close to exact solution. Vanmarcke' parameter and RMS(Root Mean Square) ratio are employed to assess relative damage variations between from RCC method and from three combination methods. Finally the most reliable fatigue damage combining method for spread mooring system is suggested.
