icted factor of safety dropped to less than 1. In this event, the peak dynamic tension on the mooring hawser is predicted to be 13.5 times the bow-on wind force for 50 knot (25.7 m/s) winds. This example shows that single point moorings can be susceptible to dynamics effects, such as those caused by wind gust fronts or other effects.
