...., fax 01-972-952-9435. Abstract Full-scale polyester ropes were tested to determine the impact of damage on the strength of polyester rope used as mooring lines for deepwater structures. The ultimate goal of this project - to provide information on the residual strength of damaged polyester rope...

In addition, seven used SPM hawsers were tested to determine breaking strength after service. Test results indicated rate of strength reduction during cyclic loading is non-linear, becoming more rapid...
