Concept Design of Side-By-Side Mooring of Ships for Large Outfitting Wharves
Compared with common cargo terminals,outfitting ships are characterized with low displacement,shallow draught,large area exposed to wind,they are also sensitive to dynamic response under such natural conditions as wind,waves and sea currents,thus the design of ships mooring at outfitting wharf is highly demanded subject to those unpowered ships berthing at the wharf during outfitting period.In order to raise efficiency in utilization of the wharf and reduce engineering investment,two ships are demanded to berth side-by-side at outfitting wharf in actual production process.The layout of side-by-side mooring of two ships is quite different from the pattern adopted by common cargo terminals,and no detailed provision is available in the current standards.Based on an outfitting wharf project,a layout plan of side-by-side mooring of ships is simulated and verified by using OPTIMOOR software so as to evaluate the safety in ship mooring,which will serve as a reference for similar projects.
