Abstract
Dynamic analysis can consider the complex behavior of mooring systems. However, the relatively long analysis time of the dynamic analysis makes it difficult to use in the design of mooring systems. To tackle this, we present a Bayesian optimization algorithm (BOA) which is well known as fast convergence using a small number of data points. The BOA evaluates design candidates using a probability-based objective function which is updated during the optimization process as more data points are achieved. In a case study, we applied the BOA to improve an initial mooring system that had been designed by human experts. The BOA was also compared with a genetic algorithm (GA) that used a pre-trained surrogate model for fast evaluation. The optimal designs that were determined by both the BOA and GA have a 50% lower maximum tension than the initial design. However, the computation time of the GA needed 20 times more than that of the BOA because of the training time of the surrogate model.
