Abstract
In addition to the material presented up to now, there are a number of topics of current interest for which it is useful to review the present status. These topics include (i) a summary of the catenary relations and, more specifically, the problem of the double catenary, (ii) dynamic stresses induced in cables by random end loads and (iii) the force required to extract bodies from the ocean bottom. The latter is usually referred to as the bottom breakout force problem.
