Demonstrates how the permeability of any component can be changed in order to get more accurate wind plane representation when it is shielded by another component.
    `Demonstrates how the permeability of any component can be changed in order
    `to get more accurate wind plane representation when it is shielded by
    `another component.
    `
    `The steps are as follows.
    ` 1. Set up a condition and capture the draft and trim in user variables.
    ` 2. Use Part Maker to modify the permeability of one or more components
    `    and/or delete parts or components.
    ` 3. With the modified geometry, set the trim and draft then capture the
    `    heeling moment in a user variable.
    ` 4. Reread the original geometry file.
    ` 5. Reestablish the condition.
    ` 6. Reset the heeling moment from the user variable.
    ` 7. Run the stability calculation.
