4.6.10. Appendix B. OC4 Jacket Driver File

SubDyn’s Driver Input File (OC4 Jacket Driver File):

This file includes information on the environmental conditions (gravity and water depth), numerical-solution parameters (e.g., integration time interval, numer of time-steps), TP reference point coordinates in global reference frame, rotation angle of the structure geometry in degrees about the global Z axis, the input mode for the TP reference point displacements, velocities, and accelerations (steady-state or time-series from file) and any related input file if not steady-state input.
