WAMIT

Dear Akshay,

As discussed in the WAMIT documentation, “substantial differences between the three volumes may indicate errors in the GDF input data”. Is the WAMIT model you are using supplied by NREL or one you made yourself?

Best regards,

Dear Jason,

My model (for the coupled dynamic analysis) is 5 MW SEMI-SUBMERSIBLE WIND TURBINE COMBINED WITH THREE FLAP-TYPE WAVE ENERGY CONVERTERS, one of the MARINA Platforms (Marine Renewable Integrated application Platform) developed at NTNU. Please find my GDF file (combined, 3 flaps + floating plateform) obtained from the rhinoceros and model image.

Appreciated your quick reply

regards

Dear Akshay,

I plotted your GDF file and I don’t see any obvious errors. I would suggest that you send your WAMIT-related question to WAMIT Inc. for support.

Best regards,
