Linear Interpolation in the Vertical Direction

It is used for large amplitude free surface sloshing in a rigid tank subjected to a vertical or horizontal ground motion. In this case, only fluid nodal y-coordinates are updated after each iteration according to the free surface new location.


1-5  Vertical pattern first node (NS  ) 

6-10 		 Vertical pattern last node     (NE  )


11-15 		 Vertical pattern nodal increment (INC )


15-20 		 Vertical pattern number of repetitions  (IREP )


21-25 		 Vertical pattern increment (INCP )
