Abstract

In this paper, a method for predicting the position of towline is presented. The location of the finite node is determined by installing fixed spaced attitude sensors in towline arrays, then the appropriate objective functions are selected for water depth profile and course profile respectively, and the interpolation fitting method is combined with the determined predicted positions. Through the hydrodynamic analysis of the existing towing cable’s underwater motion, the position of the towing cable under the steady state motion is obtained as the reference basis, and two methods are put forward, which are improved spline interpolation method, polynomial fitting method and multivariate nonlinear regression analysis. In the case of steady state motion, the two methods are compared and compared with the hydrodynamic simulation results. Finally, a more suitable method is selected as the basis of cable location inversion and applied to deep-sea towing operations.
