The hydrodynamic and structural data required by AqwaWave may be specified in neutral format files. In this mode, data are provided via two free format ASCII neutral files, one for the hydrodynamic related information and a second for the structural (FE) data. These will be divided into a series of data blocks, each delimited by a header.
Details of each data block are described in the following sections. The results of the load mapping are written to a separate file.
