Abstract: The magnitude of peak tensions during the deployment of subsurface moorings is dependent on the elastic stretch of the mooring line and the added masses of the mooring buoyancy and instruments. Measured transient tensions, ...

Abstract: Data from instrumented moorings are used to show that rate underreading of Aanderaa paddle-wheel rotor current meters is a result of mooring vibration induced by vortex shedding from spherical in-line buoyancy. Direct ...
