Profile Points Tab

Calc uses the profile points defined in this dialog to determine the wind profile, which is used by some of the stability criteria, when performing loading calculations and deterministic calculations.

Openings and Deck Edge Points Dialog - Profile Points Tab.

The profile of the vessel is modelled using x and z co-ordinates to specify points around the centerline section. Each pair of points is assumed to be connected by straight lines. Hence you must take care in selecting the sequence in which each point is entered. The X and Z are measured relative to the vessel's origin (units: meters or feet).

Note:
The profile points can be setup in Surface/Compartment and Released to Calc together with the compartment geometry,
