Refining Vortex-Induced Motion Models Through Multi-Column Spacing Analysis

Vortex-induced motion remains a primary driver of fatigue in mooring systems, yet the influence of column spacing on multi-platform behavior has remained unresolved. New towing tank tests at a 45° current incidence angle reveal that larger column spacing ratios intensify VIM responses, by as much as 30.8% in sway amplitude. Simply increasing spacing fails as a suppression strategy; optimal design requires balancing lock-in ranges with galloping onset velocities.
