Comparison of hllnd with computer melhod results from example
It can be seen that the results from the band method are slightly worse than those given by the
computer method. This measure of agreement should be expected for a good mooring layoul.
For ill-conditjoned layouts the hand method will be less accurate.
The results obrruned by [he approxlmate formulae in Seaion 2.6. J are slightly conservative since
most mooring layout are not as cfficiCnl as the layout assumed i.n this example.
