  • It is possible to interrupt a run and save the results already computed.
  • Automatic discretization of the interior free surface can be performed for irregular frequency removal
  • Trimmed waterlines can be specified, with prescribed vertical and angular displacements
  • Vertical walls can be represented, with bodies in the fluid domain and wavemakers in the walls
  • Automatic discretization of the control surface can be performed to evaluate mean drift forces
  • Users can modify the response-amplitude operators (RAO) before computing fluid pressures, velocities, and mean drift forces
  • Version 6.4PC  is compiled using Intel Visual Fortran Version 10.1 and runs faster than earlier versions
  • For a complete list of extensions and further details, please refer to Chapter 1 of the WAMIT User Manual (Section 1.6).
