20. ABSTRACT (cont'd) 



by vertical, sinusoidal motion of the upper end of the mooring line were 

 measured. The experiments were made under conditions of current and no current 

 Data were reduced to force response ratios as a function of frequency of input, 

 and observations of mooring line mocions were made. These response ratios were 

 found to depend on preloac, current, bending stiffness, and scope.
