Journal Article
An ocean profiling observation platform with cable traversing and clinging capabilities
2025
Overview
To address the issues of excessive observation equipment and discontinuous observation points in tethered discrete profiling observations, a mobile profiling observation platform with mooring and cable-traversing capabilities has been designed. This platform is propelled by electric thrusters and incorporates a mooring mechanism that clamps onto the tether to achieve clinging positioning. A dynamic simulation model of the mobile platform was established to analyse the thrust required for traversing the cable and the clamping force and torque needed during mooring. The study reveals that the magnitude of horizontal flow velocity is the primary factor influencing the thruster thrust and clamping torque, both of which increase with higher flow velocities. The designed cable-traversing mobile observation platform provides a methodological approach for conducting profiling observations on tethered marine observation platforms.
