Public Attributes

double elemMass
 Parameters and variables.
 
double * Ca
 Mass of each element in the floating collar.
 
double * Cb
 Added mass coefficient array for Mass matrix and diffraction force. 1.0 is equal to mass of displaced water equal to 0.5*rhowater*pi*elemeradius^2*elemlength.
 
double elemVolume
 Potential wave damping coefficient array for Mass matrix and diffraction force. 1.0 is equal to mass of displaced water equal to 0.5*rhowater*pi*elemeradius^2*elemlength.
 
double elemRadius
 Volume of each element in the floating collar.
 
double elemLength
 Diameter of each element in the floating collar.
 
double elemArea
 Length of each element in the floating collar.
 
double elemProjArea
 Area of each element (ommitting circular end patches)
 
double elemCrossSectArea
 Projected area of element (2*elementRadius*elementLength)
 
double Cd_n
 Cross sectional area of each element in the floating collar (pi*radius^2)
 
double Cd_t
 Normal drag coefficient for each element in the floating collar.
 
double rhoWater
 Tangential drag coeffocient.
 
double g
 Water density.
 
int numBridles
 Acceleration of gravity. Not usually something you want to meddle with. More...
 
int * BridleElemIndex
 Number of bridles connected to floating collar.
 
double * BridleForces
 Pointer to array holding element index of bridle connection points.
 
int numNetConnectors
 Array holdign bridle forces for elements with a bridle connection.
 
int * NetElemIndex
 Number of net connections to floating collar.
 
double * NetForces
 Pointer to array holding element index of net connection points.
