How is the result case numbering for wave loads done?
Load case numbering in Cutres can be odd when having many wave directions and wave periods, from a frequency domain analysis. Sestra will sort the cases on wave directions, based on the input in the S#.FEM file From the example in the attachment, using 2 directions and 8 periods:
LC 1 = Stillwater
LC 2 (= 2-0) = heading 1, wave period 1
LC 3 (= 3-0) = heading 2, wave period 1
LC 2-1 = heading 1, wave period 2
LC 2-2 = heading 1, wave period 3
¦
LC 3-1 = heading 2, wave period 2
LC 3-2 = heading 2, wave period 3
