This is an example of the use of the automatic installation macro system supplied in the tools directory to analyze the stability of a tow.

In essence, doing a stability study is the same a doing a transportation anlysis, only one stops after doing the stability; i.e. one uses the -no_seakeep option on the TRANSP command. The files which are discussed here are:

• i_stab commands
• i_stab log
• i_stab output

For a complete discussion, see the automated installation.
