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.

Thank you for your response.
but what kind of fenders do you think is better to allow the relative motions only along the spar local z-direction? omni-directional or one-direction only? and what about the fender properties? could you please help me in adjusting proper amounts for siffness coefficients (A to E), damping coefficient, friction coefficient and size?
