Grid sensitivity study: coarsest-medium-finest meshes designed to be simulated at 6 rad/s. Three different mesh regions: structured around the free surface, body-fitted structured around the body and unstructured in the far field. Mesh size at cylinder wall d1=3e−4 m for M1 (coarse), d2=1e−4 m for M2 (medium) and d3=2e−5 m for M3 (fine).
