# Orcaflex Operability

## When to Use

- Operability envelope generation for mooring systems
- Weather downtime calculations from scatter diagrams
- Critical heading identification for design loads
- Multi-sea-state analysis (1yr, 10yr, 100yr return periods)
- Tension limit assessment (intact vs damaged conditions)
- Annual operational availability studies
- Polar coordinate visualization of system limits

## Prerequisites

- OrcaFlex simulation results (.sim files) for multiple headings
- Wave scatter diagram (Hs-Tp probability matrix)
- Python environment with `digitalmodel` package installed
- Tension limits for intact and damaged conditions

## Python API

### Basic Operability Analysis

```python
from digitalmodel.orcaflex.operability_analysis import OperabilityAnalyzer

# Initialize analyzer
analyzer = OperabilityAnalyzer(
    simulation_directory="results/.sim/",
    output_directory="reports/operability/"
)

# Generate operability envelope

*See sub-skills for full details.*
### Weather Downtime Calculation

```python
from digitalmodel.orcaflex.operability_analysis import OperabilityAnalyzer
import pandas as pd

analyzer = OperabilityAnalyzer(
    simulation_directory="results/.sim/",
    output_directory="reports/"
)

# Load wave scatter diagram

*See sub-skills for full details.*
### Critical Headings Analysis

```python
from digitalmodel.orcaflex.operability_analysis import OperabilityAnalyzer

analyzer = OperabilityAnalyzer(
    simulation_directory="results/.sim/",
    output_directory="reports/"
)

# Identify critical headings
critical = analyzer.generate_critical_headings_report(

*See sub-skills for full details.*
### Comprehensive Report Generation

```python
from digitalmodel.orcaflex.operability_analysis import OperabilityAnalyzer

analyzer = OperabilityAnalyzer(
    simulation_directory="results/.sim/",
    output_directory="reports/"
)

# Generate comprehensive HTML report with all analyses
report_path = analyzer.generate_comprehensive_report(

*See sub-skills for full details.*
