…nd large yaw offset Two bugs are identified that lead to incorrect potential-flow wave excitation when multiple bodies are present with large yaw offset (PtfmRefY!=0): * When NBodyMod=1 and NBody>1, only the wave excitation on the first body is transformed back to the inertial frame in WAMIT_Init. * When PtfmRefY!=0 with PtfmRefxt or PtfmRefyt being nonzero, there is effectively a displacement of each potential-flow body due to platform yaw offset when precomputing the wave excitation each body. In other words, the effect of this baseline displacement is already baked into the precomputed wave excitation, so it needs to be subtracted from the total body displacement when interpolating the wave excitation in WAMIT_CalcOutput if ExctnDisp>0.

I don't know all the details in your transform, but this looks correct.

Feature or improvement description
Two bugs were identified that led to incorrect potential-flow wave excitation when multiple bodies are present with large yaw offset (
PtfmRefY!=0orPtfmYMod=1):When
NBodyMod=1andNBody>1, only the wave excitation on the first body is transformed back to the inertial frame. This PR adds the transformation of the subsequent bodies.When
PtfmRefxt!=0orPtfmRefyt!=0, there is effectively a displacement of each potential-flow body due to platform yaw offset when precomputing the wave excitation. In other words, the effect of this baseline displacement is already baked into the precomputed wave excitation, so it needs to be subtracted from the total body displacement when interpolating the wave excitation ifExctnDisp>0. This correction is implemented in this PR.Impacted areas of the software
