Hello everyone,
I was facing an issue regarding the units to be given for Elasticity times area (EA) in floating body objects X:6DOF (X 311), Should it be in N or kN?
I am not sure whether I should be adding MOI (moment of inertia), if the uniform density of the symmetrical floating body is already given.

The unit of EA is N.

REEF3D calculates the moment of inertia (MOI) if you don't define it explicitly. However, it is better to add it explicitly. The unit of MOI is kg·m².
