*ADINPOL,FILE=Filename

Data format :

One line with 2 parameters

IGR ANG

Status :

Optional

Restriction :

A group must have been previously defined

Purpose :

To define an inertia coefficient (Cm) function of arc length and direction

Details :

Parameter	Description
IGR	Group identification number of the line
ANG	Reference angle in degrees

The file has the following format:

Number of angles
List of angles
Curv. Abscissa 1 Cm at angle 1 ... Cm at angle N
Curv. Abscissa 2 Cm at angle 1 ... Cm at angle N
Curv. Abscissa 3 Cm at angle 1 ... Cm at angle N
...
Curv. Abscissa i Cm at angle 1 ... Cm at angle N

For example :

2 ! number of angles
25 90 ! list of angles
0 1.0 1.0 ! Curv Absc / Cm at angle 1 / Cm at angle 2
100 1.2 1.1
200 1.2 1.1
1000 1.2 1.1

Note

All angle values are in degrees. Note that the reference frame is the local vector (d1,d2) of each node the wave inertia force is apllied. The wave acceleration direction (ang_fs) is evaluated in each location in the local frame. The angle is then used to interpolate the added mass coefficient using (ang_fs-ANG).
