    Catenary Mooring Line Shape Tool (Version 1)

    Uploaded by

    Said
    The document contains an input tool for modeling the shape of a catenary mooring line underwater. It includes input parameters for water depth, force at the fairlead, line diameter, and material density. It then lists the results that can be calculated like horizontal distance to touchdown, suspended weight, cross-sectional area, and normalized tension. A sample output figure shows the modeled catenary shape from seabed to fairlead.
