Penetration Mechanism and Kinematic Behavior of Drag Anchors
发布时间：2020-12-09 00:15
With resource exploitation reaching deep and ultra-deep waters more often, large floating structures such as the FPSO, Spar and SEMI combining with sufficiently effective and reliable mooring systems are becoming increasingly popular in deepwater offshore engineering. Because of better performances both in pullout capacity and deepwater installation, drag anchors, including the vertically loaded plate anchors, are increasingly applied and play a key role in deepwater mooring systems. The penetra...
