Quick answer: There was a tutorial in OpenFOAM 2.2.x that demonstrates this, it's the tutorial "mesh/moveDynamicMesh/simpleHarmonicMotion": https://github.com/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM...HarmonicMotion

Kindly can you please let me know, how to obtain the displacement of floatingObject in the x-direction (translation of the box in x-direction) with respect to time?

Thank you.
Gautami.

Gautami: did you do any postprocessing on the generated data? What do the data files look like?

I have a question, can someone please help me out?
I want to run the solver multiPhase/interFoam/RAS/floatingObject but by default it runs with a cuboid body, I have a cylindrical body in .stl format and I want to use it as a floating object.
How can I do this? I have been able to insert the cylindrical mesh in blockMesh by using snappyHexMesh, but how can I use the cylinder as a floating object? Thanks if someone can help me out, I am doing a univerisity homework
