Floating barges and rafts are simple in their design but are equipped with advanced tools for the daily operation of a fish farm plants. Due to the weight and size, a barge may behave much like a float in water. Making the mooring exposed to load peaks from the barge response. AquaSim may be applied for detection of probable load peaks and verification of the mooring’s contribution to global moment in the hull.
Modelling and analysis of barge mooring system.
The barge response due to waves can cause snap loads - or peak loads - in the mooring lines. With AquaSim, you can investigate how this may affect the structural integrity of your mooring system.
