Ramp Up Options

The Ramp Up Options (Figure 1) allows the user to modify the timing to full transition physics. Buoyancy can be adjusted with a buoyancy factor that must be between 0 and 1, with 0 being no buoyancy influence and 1 being full buoyancy influence. For some applications, the ramp up time from the ICs to natural physics require the phasing in of the buoyancy and the non-linear terms. This is accomplished using the Modify button and applying number of ramp up iterations for the various options.
