Ocean developments gradually move to deep-sea in the 21 century. A deep-sea unmanned underwater vehicle is one of important tools for ocean resource survey. A marine cable plays an important role for the safe operation and signal transmission of a deep-sea unmanned underwater vehicle. The umbilical cable of a deep-sea unmanned underwater vehicle is excited by surface vessel motion and shows non-linear dynamic behaviors. A numerical method is necessary for analysing the dynamic behavior of a marine cable. In this study, a numerical program is established based on a finite difference method. The program is appled to 6000m long cable for a deep-sea unmanned underwater vehicle and shows good reasonable results.
