WSLP2TM methods
| Quick Calctm | instantaneous draft, trim, heel, KG/GM margins, max stress, torsion, deflections as you edit loads |
| 3D on-the-fly | drafts, trim, heel, KG, GM, GZ, downflooding, ground reaction, stresses, deflections.... |
WSLP2TM reports

WSLP2TM features
| Graphical load | -draw, drag and drop new loads |
| Riser | -tension and riser side force |
| Moorings | -layout, tensions, moments |
| Thrusters | -thrusts and azimuth angles |
| -deployed and retracted | |
| Winds | -heel for any wind direction and strength |
| Waves | -heights and predominant direction |
| -find best heading for greatest stability | |
| -find best heading for least inclination and trim | |
| Heavy lift | -animated graphic of heavy lift as user drags load with mouse |
| -auto tracking of its XYZ co-ords and COG allows instant KG update | |
| -instant comparison to maximum allowed KG | |
| -monitoring in real-time when connected to sensors | |
| Damage | -we use the lost buoyancy technique and hydrostatics of the remaining waterplane |
| -various stages of inflow/outflow through openings to the sea | |
| -equilibrium drafts, trim, heel after all inflow/outflow has ceased | |
| -user draws single or multiple openings to the sea using the mouse | |
| -alternatively user can key-in the 3D co-ordinates of each hole and downflood openings | |
| -damaged GMT, damaged GML, damaged righting arms about any axis of inclination | |
| -comparison to damage stability criteria MODU, IMO, USCG.... | |
| LWT Traktm | -track growth in lightweight at sea |
| -track new location of lightweight LCG, VCG, TCG | |
| -requires connection to the proprietary stability sensor, the Ocean Motions CLINO-PAKtm | |
| Ballast Advice | -program automatically computes how much to load while maintaining KG<KGMAX |
| -user specifies which tanks are available for ballasting ops | |
| -user enters target draft, trim, heel | |
| Auto Draft | -user specifies target draft, program automatically figures out how best to achieve that draft |
| Auto Trim | -user specifies required trim, program automatically relocates loads to achieve this trim |
| Auto Heel | -user specifies required heel, program automatically loads ballast to achieve this heel |
| Auto Margin | -user specifies GM or KG margin that he wants, program keeps loading til this margin is achieved |
| Export | -to management and financial software, onboard and to shore sites |
| -daily stability reports from within our program WSLP, all in one concise SL2 file | |
| Links | -bi-directional comms to your VMS, DCS, tank gauging, MetOcean consoles, instruments, sensors |
| Protocols | -Ocean Motions COMMS_2000 |Ocean Motions CLINO-PAK serial | Kongsberg Simrad |
| -SAAB Tank Radar | Alstom (Cegelec) | ElectroWave USA......... | |
| Units | -Metric and Imperial, and can be mixed |
| -Feet, Metres, Long Tons, Short Tons, KIPS, Newtons, Metric Tons, BBLs, M3 , specific gravity, | |
| -LB/GAL, sacks, UK Gallons, US Gallons, Canadian Gallons, Ton/in2 , KN/cm2 .......... | |
| References | -longitudinal references are +ve or -ve from a selected Frame, midships, AP or FP |
| Conventions | -TCGs can be +ve to port or +ve to starboard |
