    Calculation of Residual strength of synthetic hawser rope

    I understand, AI can be a bit unpredictable sometimes. Thank you for your patience LittleInch and GregLocock. I’ll ensure I provide correct information moving forward.

    Calculation of Residual strength of synthetic hawser rope

    That’s a great question. The number of cycles should actually decrease as the load increases. I followed the formula, but it seems to have led me in the wrong direction. I applied three formulas—Miner’s Rule, the cumulative damage hypothesis, and the S-N curve formula—but the specific...

    Calculation of Residual strength of synthetic hawser rope

    My rope is made of HMPE and is used for offshore mooring operations, so it is typically wet due to marine conditions.

    Calculation of Residual strength of synthetic hawser rope

    I have calculated the hawser mooring rope’s residual strength (life prediction) and need confirmation on its accuracy. Please review my attached PDF. The OCIMF formula R=S−(S−A)(N/e^A(S−L))^B gave unrealistic results due to a very large exponent, so I used an alternative formula and took five...

    Load cell placement in load pin

    "Now I have one more question, sir. Since the strain gauges are fitted inside the bore of the pin using adhesive, how are they placed? Are they inserted through the hole using a needle or similar tool? If so, wouldn’t it be impossible to position the gauges inside the groove area, as it’s 200mm...

    Load cell placement in load pin

    "Yes, those grooves experience the highest strain and stress. That’s why I placed the gauges inside the pin, aligned with the groove area for better measurements."

    Load cell placement in load pin

    "I apologize for the delay, and thank you, sir. I have another question: If I install gauges inside the bore of the pin using adhesive, they tend to detach due to the rotational nature of the CALM buoy platform. Is there an alternative installation method to ensure the gauges remain securely...

    CALM Buoy Offshore Telemetry and Automation System

    Hello everyone, Could anyone recommend a website that provides comprehensive information about oil and gas transportation, telemetry systems, and PLC-based automation in CALM buoy(offshore)? I’m looking to deepen my knowledge in these areas and would appreciate a resource that can help clarify...

    Load cell placement in load pin

    thanks for your time and consideration, i apologize if i made any confusion, i just want to know where is the best place to fit these strain guages in the load pin, that is where is the maximum stress and strain happened ?, please give me solution sir.

    Load cell placement in load pin

    I want to know how these strain gauges are kept inside the load pin?, look image for reference. I know using adhesive glue these guages are fitted but my question is inside? or outside(surface of the load pin grooves)? if inside, how these are kept?. if outside, how these can be sealed...

    Residual strength

    Can someone help me to find out the residual strength of the hawser rope or chain. please refer me a formula for estimating the residual strength. I have the data, initial strength= 400tonnes, A and B constant for our HMPE rope is 0.12 and 3. Loads and no of cycles are recorded at the real time...
