Dear @RyanDavies19 ,
I have read your manuscript on the implementation of Vortex Induced Vibration (VIV) in Moordyn and would appreciate your assistance in clarifying a few questions.
According to the manual, it is essential to use a sufficiently high number of segments when simulating VIV. In your case study, with a length of 23.71 m and the utilization of 100 segments, I am curious whether this number is adequate for longer line lengths, such as 2000 m. Specifically, do you believe that 100 segments would still suffice, or are there any recommendations or requirements regarding the length of each segment?
Additionally, I would like to inquire about how to set the value of line internal damping, as this was not addressed in your manuscript. Through various case studies, I have observed that the internal damping value can significantly influence simulation results and may also affect the dissipation of VIV.
