Description |
Suppress Friction: |
The options are No (the default) and Yes. |
(a)The default is to No. This is the recommended setting for the majority of analyses.
(b)To suppress the effects of friction, select Yes. Very occasionally, you may want to exclude seabed friction, for example, during the initiation of pipeline/seabed contact in a pipeline analysis.
(c)This option is only relevant where frictional effects are being modelled. For example, if a seabed or guide surface is present, and at least one non-zero friction coefficient has been specified.
(d)This option is not relevant for a frequency domain dynamic analysis.
