Dear @Daniel.Zalkind,
Thank you once again for your answer. It has been very helpful.
As I need to continue my work, I have a new doubt I hope you or @Jason.Jonkman can solve.
During a simulation with the semisumersible model, using multidirectional waves, I found this error:
C:\Users\ignacio\Desktop\cwd\UniWind_Waves\5MW_OC4Semi\../5MW_Baseline/HydroData/marin_semi.12d:
only contains one first wave direction at 0 degreesIt cannot be used with multidirectional waves.
Set WaveDirMod to 0 to use this file.
CheckWAMIT2WvHdgDiffData: WAMIT output file
C:\Users\ignacio\Desktop\cwd\UniWind_Waves\5MW_OC4Semi\../5MW_Baseline/HydroData/marin_semi.12d:
only contains one second wave direction at 0 degreesIt cannot be used with multidirect
The solution to this error is clear (set WaveDirMod to 0) but my question is, how much less realistic would it be to make the simulations without multidirectional waves?
I have already read in the forum some posts like this one: How to use SESAM \ WADAM to generate.12d file - #2 by Jason.Jonkman. I think I should follow the steps described there to create a new marin_semi.12d file with the second-order potential-flow solution needed to simulate multidirectional waves.
The problem with that is that I am not familiar at all with hydrodynamic calculations at this scale.
I hope you can help me with this issue.
Best regards,
