heal.abstract	A scaling procedure for mooring experiments with lines containing buoys attached to them is outlined. It is shown that dynamic similitude is ensured only if the elasticity of each segment of the line is properly modelled through the introduction of elastic springs. The validity of the proposed procedure is shown by comparing full-scale and scaled-down numerical results concerning dynamic amplification for a number of configurations. Preliminary experimental results are also discussed.	en
