| Abstract | Mooring systems for wave energy converters (WEC) have to be designed to survive the cyclic loads and motions they are subjected to as a result of the wave load-WEC interaction and the motions of the WEC in the random elevation of the sea surface. The current study compares four simulation procedures for the analysis of fatigue of WEC moorings. The objective is to recommend the type of simulation procedure that can be used to make reliable fatigue design of WEC mooring systems at a reasonable computational effort. A cylindrical floating WEC with four spread mooring lines is chosen for case study. The mooring dynamics of the WEC is simulated using coupled and de-coupled approaches in the time domain. In total, four types of simulation procedures are compared using the commercial simulation software DNV DeepC and an in-house code MOODY. A parameter sensitivity analysis of environmental conditions, model and numerical parameters is presented. The results are compared with respect to fatigue damage calculated using a stress-based approach and the rainflow counting method. It is found that a de-coupled approach, using DNV DeepC to simulate the buoy’s motions and cable response, is recommended since (i) it gives reliable results in terms of motion and stress responses of the buoy, mooring lines and accumulated fatigue damage, (ii) it requires the least model preparation by the engineer and the computation time is reasonable. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
