Known bugs in version 11.5c
- Running models with line feeding sometimes results in an access violation error when the range of the ramping zone is far from the zero of simulation time.
- Running a frequency domain simulation that contains an indirectly solved constraint with no out-frame connection results in an unexpected program error.
- Following a frequency domain simulation, the y-component of the line node acceleration is omitted from the list of available line result variables.
- Current vertical stretching is applied to the tabular current velocity field, but not the acceleration field. Current vertical stretching should be applied to both.
- The OrcaFlex spreadsheet does not handle additional data for turbine results which specify a clearance line name.
- Calculations (statics or dynamics) for exceptionally large models sometimes result in an access violation error.
- Variation models or restart analyses loaded from text data files sometimes load incorrectly for models containing lines that use the calculated from end positions option to determine their length and end orientations.
- In the frequency domain, the load associated with a change in the proportion wet of a surface piercing 3D buoy, due to wave elevation, is phased incorrectly.
These bugs will be fixed in 11.5d.
