OCTOPUS-OFFICE 6 "BASIC" is used to calculate the transfer functions of
ship responses in waves (absolute and relative motions, velocities,
accelerations, hull girder loads and linear combinations of responses).
The program has a built-in geometry-modeler to prepare 2D- and 3D-models
as input for the hydrodynamic calculations (2D-strip theory or a 3D-diffraction
database can be used). Nonlinear sea state dependent transfer functions are
solved by means of stochastic linearization. The program features extensive
possibilities for graphical and textual reporting and presentation, including
export functions to MS Word and Excel.
