We have an exciting announcement about badges coming in May 2025. Until then, we will temporarily stop issuing new badges for course completions and certifications. However, all completions will be recorded and fulfilled after May 2025.

Sorry, I meant one way 6DOF - ie the motion of the tank is dependent on the vessel, the tank sloshing doesn't alter the vessel motion. So you just need a motion profile from AQWA. Note, most FPSOs and bulk carriers don't pitch, heave or yaw that much unless in a storm, when we did a test case for a webinar I think we finished up with the equivalent to a rowing boat in a hurricane! That content is most likely lost now, but look for sloshing on ansys.com

VOF is good to track a coherent free surface. You can also have multispecies for each phase if needed. If you're expecting the free surface to break review multifluid VOF.
