Hull Attitude Definitions:

FX0 = fixed at zero Sinkage and Trim

FXσ τ = fixed at dynamic Sinkage and Trim

FRz θ = free to heave and pitch

FRx z θ = free to surge, heave and pitch

FRφ = free to roll

 Hull Geometry: cases 3.1a ; 3.2

 Hull Geometry: cases 3.1b ; 3.5 ; 3.6

 Bilge keel Geometry: case 3.6

Sinkage is defined using Z axis upwards and negative (-) trim values are nose down
