Description of Computer Program CAB3DYN for the Time Domain Analysis of the Three-Dimensional Long-Time Deployment Behavior of General Ocean Cable Systems
1981
Wang, Henry T. | Cheng, Raymond S.
The report describes in detail Program CAB3DYN, which analyzes in the time domain the three-dimensional long-time deployment behavior of free-floating and towing ocean cable systems. The report describes the coordinate systems used, the modeling of the time-varying current profile, and the formulations for the surface buoy or prescribed surface motion, intermediate bodies, and the connecting cable. Detailed input instructions include a listing of the input READ statements, the definition of each input variable and comments on usage. Two sample problems on the deployment of free-floating and towing cable systems are given to illustrate usage of the program, calculated results, and computer execution time.
