The Hydrostatic results tree item enables you to view the centers of buoyancy, flotation and gravity in the graphical view once a hydrostatic or hydrodynamic solve has been performed.
Detailed hydrostatic results are available by selecting the Properties tab at the bottom of the graphical view.
In the Details panel, select the Structure whose results you want to display. You can add as many Hydrostatic results objects as you like to display the results of different structures. For each result object, you can suppress or enable the display of the Center of Gravity, Center of Buoyancy, and Center of Flotation information from the Details panel. Any number of Hydrostatic results objects can be added to the Solution.
Note: For best graphical display of hydrostatic results, it is recommended that you change the View options to enable Wireframe and turn off Select Tree Related Items.
When the selected structure includes Moonpools, the hydrostatic Moonpools properties will also be displayed. They are grouped per structures and all Moonpool properties are listed back-to-back:
The centre point coordinate and the area of the free surface
The general stiffness matrix for each pressure mode (see Equation 4–119)
When generating the report, the hydrostatic stiffness matrix may be wrapped if the size of the matrix exceeds the size of an A4 sheet.
