Variable-Length Cable Dynamics of Payout and Reel-in With a Vertically Tethered Underwater Drill Rig

A new dynamic model of the variable-length cable used in a vertically tethered underwater drill rig is presented in this paper, which also includes the dynamics of its fixed-length counterpart. First, the differential equation of the variable-length cable is derived through the theorem of linear mom...
