floatPositions

Returns the positions of the floats at the current time as well as the value of the fields being tracked.

---

Declaration

 [x,y,z,tracked] = floatPositions()

Discussion

The tracked variable is a structure, with fields named for each of the requested fields being tracked.

In the following example, float positions are set along with one tracked field

model.setFloatPositions(xFloat,yFloat,zFloat,'rho_total');

% Set up the integrator
nT = model.setupIntegrator(timeStepConstraint="oscillatory", outputInterval=period/10,finalTime=3*period);

% write the float trajectories to memory
xFloatT = zeros(nT,nTrajectories);
yFloatT = zeros(nT,nTrajectories);
zFloatT = zeros(nT,nTrajectories);
rhoFloatT = zeros(nT,nTrajectories);
t = zeros(nT,1);

[xFloatT(1,:),yFloatT(1,:),zFloatT(1,:),tracked] = model.floatPositions;
rhoFloatT(1,:) = tracked.rho_total;
