Based on the rain-flow counting method, a new random numerical simulation method for evaluating dynamic response characteristics of a launch and recovery system is presented in this study. It takes a random irregular wave as an input, and the random distribution characteristics of the dynamic responses of the launch and recovery system of a seafloor drill is analyzed by using the rain-flow counting method. The nonlinear coupling mechanisms among the movements of the ship, the umbilical cable, and the seafloor drill caused by random irregular wave are investigated. A dynamic model that considers the influence of the seawater resistance on the launch and recovery system of seafloor drill is established. Then, significant wave heights are used to produce excitation of the random irregular wave, and the corresponding dynamic random responses of the launch and recovery system are calculated and analyzed. At the same time, the movement of the seafloor drill and the tension of the umbilical cable are calculated and analyzed for the cases of seafloor drill at different water depths. This method provides a new tool for evaluating the dynamic response characteristics of launch and recovery system of other seafloor equipment under random irregular wave.
