How to model a vertical vessel for transportation in horizontal position?
To make the calculation of a vertical vessel during the transportation horizontally, you may follow this workflow:
- run the calculation of the vessel in its vertical position
- convert results as input data (Menu/Execute/Convert Results as Input Data)
