Help with Capytaine & GBM for OWC #582

Hi, Capytaine can handle arbitrary dofs (there is an example in the documentation), which include the generalized body modes used for OWC. I've never done this myself. Testing and documenting an example of OWC with Capytaine is among the most requested feature, but I won't have time and funding to work on that in the next few months. |

Hi @mancellin, Thank you very much for your response and the information about Capytaine. I reviewed the example in the documentation as you suggested, which was helpful in understanding the available options. Thank's Best regards, |

Hi,
I’m currently working on modeling the Sparbuoy OWC case using Capytaine, employing the Generalized Body Modes (GBM) method. I need to incorporate 7 degrees of freedom (DoFs) into the simulation. However, Capytaine only provides the 6 standard DoFs (surge, sway, heave, roll, pitch, yaw), and I am missing an additional DoF for the water column height.
Does anyone have experience with adding a 7th DoF in Capytaine, or any suggestions on how to handle this with the GBM method?
Thanks!
