In MOSES, there are many different types of connectors: Mooring Lines Taught Lines (tension only, compression only, and both tension and compression) Tugboat connectors Piles Gaps Springs Links Fixed connections Sling assemblies (a collection of taught elements which act together) Launch Way assemblies Pipe assemblies (the pipe together with elements which connect the pipe to the vessel) Connectors are much like any of the other elements in the model, except that the user has more control over them. You can change their length, activate or deactivate them, change their tension, or move their attachment points. This control is necessary because these things are normally done in the field as an operation proceeds. Ultramarine, Inc. | Suite 325 | 3100 S.
