Double Symmetric Cross Section

The cross section is used to model bi-symmetric parts of the slender system. The cross section is similar to the AxisymmetricCrossSection, but can have different stiffness properties and load coefficients in / around the two local axes.

The hydrodynamic load models

  • Morison’s generalized Equation

  • Morison partly submerged cross sections

  • MacCamy Fuchs

  • Potential flow

  • No hydrodynamic loads

are available for Double Symmetric Cross Sections. For details, please see Hydrodynamic load models.
