Description
This is a Python implementation of Semi-Analytical Floating Iceberg Model. It models capsize of unstable icebergs in free ocean (without constraints), the model includes gravity, hydrostatic water pressure, added mass effect, and pressure drag. The integration in time is made by Störmer-Verlet method.
