I'm working on modelling a floating wind-wave hybrid system, consisting of a platform and six floaters, but the calculations do not converge.
I have explored the following strategies:
- Adjusting the overall residual
- Adjusting the residual of forces
- Removing hinge constraints
- Adding damping
- Decreasing the off-diagonal elements in the IRF, such as surge-sway, surge-heave, etc.
Despite these efforts, I have not been able to achieve convergence. Interestingly, reducing the number of floaters from 6 to 4 has yielded partial success in the calculations. I have uploaded the h5 file for reference.
