Furthermore, in ORCAFLEX to define wave type JONSWAP, there is an option named SEED. What does SEED mean in either DNV-RP-F109 or ORCAFLEX?

Hi,
The Jonswap SEED in Orcaflex is used to define the pseudorandom irregular wave.
This means that although an irregular simulation is 'random', it can be repeated - e.g. the seed 12345 will always give exactly the same wave train.
The meaning is the same in RP-F109.
Hope this helps
