This paper will discuss mechanical handling systems associated with ocean engineering operations and limitations of present handling system in salvage and rescue operations including problem areas in handling of submersible vehicles and other large objects at sea. Ship motion and payload response to various sea conditions will be evaluated. Emphasis will be placed on the effect of relative motion and the associated dynamic loads imposed on the handling gear. Methods of motion compensation and load attenuation will be examined.
