| Abstract: | The three-dimensional configuration of a towed cable-body system during prescribed towship maneuvers is determined. Bending resistance and inertia terms are not retained in the towing model; methods are described for ascertaining when these effects are negligible. A physical finite difference formulation is employed to develop the discretized equations of motion, and the system configuration is advanced in time using a Runge-Kutta recurrence algorithm. The response of a reference towed system to a typical maneuver is presented graphically. |
