Quasi-Static Mooring Analysis Tool
QsMoor is a powerful and user-friendly software tool developed for the quasi-static analysis of mooring systems for floating offshore structures. It supports the modeling and analysis of moored floating systems with flexible configurations, including various arrangements of mooring lines and floating platforms. Using standard catenary equations, QsMoor accurately calculates the distributed position and tension along each mooring line segment, while floating platforms can be represented through linear hydrostatic characteristics.
The software automatically determines the equilibrium state of the entire mooring system and efficiently computes linearized stiffness matrices using semi-analytic Jacobian methods, enabling reliable evaluation of system restoring characteristics for engineering analysis and preliminary design.
QsMoor also provides an intuitive graphical user interface that simplifies model setup and result visualization. The equilibrium configuration of the mooring system is updated automatically in an interactive 3D view, allowing users to quickly understand system behavior. In addition, the software can generate comprehensive Word reports containing key data, figures, and analysis results, making it convenient for documentation and engineering reporting.
