Popis: In order to develop a anchoring operation simulation system and improve safety during anchoring operations, a relatively accurate mathematical model of anchoring operations needs to be established. In this paper, the stress condition of anchor chain under environmental and subsea geological conditions is further studied and the stress condition of anchor chain is analyzed based on the previous research. In this paper, a quasi-static model based on catenary method is used as the basis of dynamic analysis, and the dynamic model of anchor chain is established based on the concentrated mass method, which fully considers the influence of anchor chain weight, hydrodynamic force, ocean current and interaction with the seabed. The fourth-order Runge Kutta method was used to solve the model numerically, and a calculation procedure was developed. The accuracy of the model was verified by comparing the calculated results with the experimental results, indicating that the constructed anchor chain dynamics model has a high accuracy.
