The stiffness  Kr D  is therefore proportional to a minimum applicable length of a mooring line:  This means that Kr D,PET  : Kr D,Aramid   =  L min,PET  : L min,Aramid 

Conclusions Aramid fibers offer great advantages.  Dynamic properties are known and can be used for engineering to estimate value in use. Aramids offer cost reduction in ultra deepwater mooring applications due to smaller dimensions and lower installation costs. Aramid ropes are 2x stiffer than PET ropes. The worlds of synthetics and steel are still way apart, but it is time for change! Let’s start talking the same language.
