Field test to determine the static forces on the pendulum swing balloon logging system

Tuor, Brian L. (1984-11)

This paper represents preliminary engineering analysis on the pendulum swing balloon system. It also describes an analysis of measurements taken in the summer o.f 1982, during a field test of a 37,000-foot3 balloon us ...
Mathematical model for determining the position and line tensions for a tethered logging balloon

Avery, Robert B. (1984-01-04)

A program was developed on a desktop computer to determine the cable tensions and position of a balloon tethered by two or more guylines. The program was specifically applied to the analysis of the static load lifting ca ...
