Equations of dynamics of the flexible connection element of the marine tethered system

Developers of modern MTS and UTS face a number of similar problems during their creation. The study of the issues of dynamics of underwater MTS and vehicles, the force impact of the medium and the carrier vessel (CV), as well as the issues of control and stability of the movement are paramount and largely determine the possibility of their normal operation. The most significant feature of dynamics of the UTS is the necessity to account for the effect of the FC as a system with distributed parameters, also interacting with the flow of liquid. The aim of the study is to improve the design of the MTS with FC based on the enhancement of existing methods of the MTS design by developing computer models of dynamics of the FC within the MTS, taking into account their operational characteristics and allowing designing the MTS with appropriate properties and parameters more correctly and efficiently, as well as developing recommendations for predicting possible operational loads of such devices. There are obtained the equations of dynamics of the flexible connection (FC) element of the marine tethered system (MTS), which enable describing its substantial movements in the absolute coordinate system.
