Hi

My resarch is about get the horizontal force connector for multi-module floating structure.

The point I draw start at first module and axis at first module.

It necesary the x-axis at the middle arrangement?

it is effect the surge, heave motion of floating structure?

because i get 6dof motion actual response so higher from other paper that i refer.

this axis effect this below?

Hello,

My research is similar to yours but I am having some issues with my model. Can you help me please

The requirements of the global coordinate system used by Aqwa are

(1)   its origin is on the mean water level.

(2)   the z-axis points upwards.

1. so the origin i put in the first module and my paper refer the origin at the middle module that do not effect the surge, heave ,etc result?
2. it is correct way i want to find the heave result (structure position > actual response > global z)? or heave result is from (structure position > RAO based  response > global z):?
3. it correct if heave get the -4.9 m get negative? my height hexagon is 20m.
