# Best Practices

## Best Practices


1. **Mesh Separation**: Ensure no mesh overlap between bodies
2. **Gap Damping**: Add viscous damping for gap resonance
3. **Frequency Resolution**: Use finer resolution near gap resonance
4. **Heading Coverage**: Include beam seas for STS analysis
5. **Relative Motion**: Focus on relative motion for operations
6. **Shielding Check**: Verify shielding assumptions in beam seas
7. **OrcaFlex Validation**: Verify multi-body response in time-domain
