Time domain analysis and system optimization of side-by-side mooring for FPSO and shuttle tanker
Objectives In view of the operational sea conditions of FPSO (Floating Production Storage and Offloading) ships in bird treats the South China Sea, this paper studies the optimization of the multi-point mooring system and side-by-side coupling system of FPSO ships and shuttle tankers.Methods ANSYS-AQWA software and the potential flow theory is used
