Porpoising of the self propelled boat

Animations for a self propelled boat help visualizing the porpoising, and the waves generated by the interaction of the hull with the fluid surface. They are created as follows:

• Create an isosurface showing the fluid area which contains more than a certain volume fraction of water, say 0.5.
• Select hull deck and portrudder under Boundaries in the Geometric Entities Panel, and the isosurface created in the previous step.
