Hi
How do you connect lines to other lines in MOSES? For instance if I have a barge with two bridles from the corners of the bow than then connect to a hawser by using, for instance a mooring ring. The mooring ring is not really important here.
So the question is about connecting multiple lines to one.
Can you please provide an example? A typical system would be the one sketched below. That would be great,
Thanks
Fabrizio
sir please tell what is to be done in this case like:
I have been given a single leg mooring buoy such that buoy has 4 chains coming down together and get connected to wire rope straight away connecting to the anchor.please help to tell me the way connect these five mooring lines together.
Hello Devansh,
There are examples on how to connect bodies. There are examples on how to connect bodies to ground via mooring lines. ONe such sample is the calm files.
Please see the calm files in the following directory.

Before you start any analysis you should have a good model. The minimal requirement of a good model is that the log file report 0 errors when reading the model. The data file you sent does not meat the minimum requirement.
Please fix the body nplate definition of ~moor.
Thats what i am unable to understand how to correct it could you please help me in it
Hi Devansh,
Did you review the calm files I suggested?
Calm dat file line 29 reads "~buoy tube 12000 25".
In your file nbuoy.dat line 68 reads "~moor tube wbox 500 500 8 8 8".
What do you think is the problem?
Georgina
