Abstract (en)

The length of the spiral can be from one to several meters, its diameter of several dozen centimeters, and its pitch from a dozen to several dozen centimeters. A length of mooring line attached to the anchor is selected so that it lies at an angle of 30 - 60 degrees to the sea bed. Where necessary, a number of anchors can be inserted in a row and connected by a bar.
