Instantaneous metacentric height in waves

      Hello

      Is it possible to obtain the metacentric height (GMX) of a structure in the time domain?

      Thank you

      No, Aqwa does not directly calculate this value. However in the time domain Hydrodynamic Response in irregular/regular waves, the hydrostatic force and Froude Krylov force on the structure are calculated over the hull surfaces beneath the instantaneous incident wave surface.
