lavrov is on a distinguished road
I try to model roll (rotational oscillations) of 2D cube in water. I created the case. It is shown in attachment. I used tutorial slashingTank3D6DoF to create my case. The main original features are in the subroutines
pointMotionU
and
dynamicMeshDict
In the beginning I modelled heave and sway oscillation of the cube. It seems to me that the case is working for heave and sway without problems.
Array that dictates cube movement consists of 7 columns (time, displacement velocity in X, Y, Z directions, rotation velocity in X, Y, Z directions).
I cannot understand the dimension of the VALUE of rotational oscillation velocity. When I see the results in paraFoam it is obvious that if I increase the rotational velocity two times, the amplitude of rotational oscillations do not increase two times.
Dear forum participants. Thank you very much in advance for your help.
