The objective of this example is to demonstrate the floating body modelling capability in Flexcom. The system under consideration is similar to that used in the preceding example, however the CALM buoy is modelled using the more generalised floating body. The overall layout of the example is as follows:
•Introduction gives a brief overview of the floating body analysis capability.
•Model Summary describes the finite element model.
•Analyses describes the various analyses performed, discussing the environmental and loading conditions to which the system is subjected.
•Results presents the pertinent results from the various analyses performed and discusses their significance.
