Stokes V Wave

Overview

Flexcom provides a range of options for calculating the response of a vessel to a Stokes V regular wave, when that response is defined in terms of RAOs in the various vessel degrees of freedom. This section first discusses the Stokes V Wave Theory, then presents the various options for vessel motion calculations (denoted Fifth Order,Equivalent Airy Wave and Superposition of Harmonics).
