Abstract: Given the increase in marine aquaculture, designing safe and efficient structures for this purpose is important.The triangular frame in vessel-shaped floating fish farming platforms, by being located at the point of wave impact with the cage, causes wave breaking and reduces its energy, thereby reducing vertical accelerations and reducing the tension force of the mooring lines and creating a safer environment than highdensity polyethylene cages.In this research, the dynamic of a sample of these cages with a single mooring system has been studied in marine water conditions near Chabahar Port using the Orcaflex software.The numerical model has first been validated with experimental results.The results show that the vertical accelerations of the main platform are significantly lower than the triangular platform located in front of the cage.Increasing the number of floating square platforms reduces the vertical
