Offset tables can be imported using a script file. This example shows how to import the data as well as some hints on how to improve the quality to best fit shell modelling in GeniE.
The above lines can be created by importing the script file Read ship offset data from Excel.js. This file refers to the spread sheet ship_offset_table_formats.xls Make sure you edit the path in the script file to match the location of your local copy of the spreadsheet.
This script defines poly-curves fitted to the points (x,y,z) as given in the spreadsheet. This means that close to knuckles there will be a smooth
line and not a sharp angle. It is thus necessary to manually define knuckle points by using the divide function for the lines. |
