Finite Element Analysis (FEA)

Finite element analysis of whole vessels or highly loaded areas, including static, buckling, contact, transient and fluid-structure studies.

Description

BHGI applies finite element analysis to complex structures where conventional methods would be difficult or time-consuming, for existing vessels as well as its own designs. Analyses can cover an entire vessel or specific areas such as highly loaded foundations, with the level of fidelity agreed in advance.

Key features

  • Linear static and nonlinear static analysis
  • Buckling analysis
  • Contact analysis
  • Transient dynamic analysis
  • Fluid-structure interaction studies in still water and a range of sea states

Applications

Structural verification of hulls, foundations and highly loaded areas on new and existing vessels.
