Abstract

Based on the catenary theory and the lumped mass method, a comparative analysis of the dynamic response characteristics of submarine cables under diverse laying modes is carried out. Special attention is given to the sensitivity analysis of pivotal parameters, including wave direction, laying depth, touchdown point distance, and laying speed during the dynamic laying process of submarine cables. Thereby, the influence mechanism of each key parameter in submarine cable laying is unveiled. By contrasting the maximum effective tension and minimum bending radius of submarine cables under different laying methods, the dynamic response traits of various laying methods are elaborated.

Key words

offshore wind power / submarine cable / electric cable laying / effective tension / bending radius / dynamic response / parameter sensitivity
