towed systems simulation

Perform high-performance cable dynamics analysis using our FREE simulator!

Features of free cable analysis:

Number of Elements in FEA: 2 to 15

Number of Bodies or Cable Segments:

Bodies: 1
Cable Segments: 1
Anchors/Tow Points: 1
Length of Time Series: 0-30 sec

Body properties:

Mass
Buoyancy
Drag coefficient
Cross-sectional area

The body is assumed to have the same vertical and horizontal drag coefficients

Options:

Analyze ground impact: NO
Control Element Distribution: NO
Turn on/off constraints: NO
Model setup costs Per Run: No Charge
Model Analysis: No Charge

Cable Solution provides the following:

(1) imemdiate graphical estimates of the steady-state profile of a towed cable-body system

(2) Dynamic simulation of the cable motions due to towpoint motions (due to ship motions such as heave, roll, and pitch motion in a seaway)
