KNUD E. HANSEN Engineering & Design
Engineering Simulation & Analysis
FEM structural analysis, multi-body dynamic analysis and CFD for any type of ship or offshore structure.
Description
KNUD E. HANSEN uses engineering simulation tools in marine engineering and naval architecture, offering Finite Element Method (FEM) structural analysis, multi-body dynamic analysis and Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) for any type of ship or offshore structure. FEM calculations are often required by classification societies to support approval of complex and novel designs.
Key features
- Structural (FEM): global and local, linear and non-linear analysis for steady-state and time-dependent problems; global strength, local structure and buckling, fatigue, slamming, collision and grounding, noise and vibration, thermal transmission.
- Dynamic: motion in all six degrees of freedom, accelerations for structural assessment and sea-fastening design, operability evaluation, hydrodynamic pressures and sea loads, multi-body dynamics including interaction effects, and modelling of mechanical systems such as mooring or lifting equipment.
- CFD: calm water resistance, hull form optimisation and aerodynamic calculations, plus time-domain calculations such as dynamic pressure loads, seakeeping and slamming loads.
Applications
Design verification and class approval support for ships, offshore structures and onboard mechanical systems.
