General layout and dimensioning: Translating your functional
requirements into feasible, compliant and fit-for-purpose designs and
specifications.
Hydrodynamic analysesStation-keeping analyses for mooring
systems, and DP analyses, using in time domain or frequency domain,
whichever is best suited for the purpose.
Motional behavior and workability analyses. We will use the appropriate software for the type of calculations required, which can vary from “Wamit” to “AQWA”,
including several post-processing programs for detailed analyses.
Computational Fluid Dynamics: determine current and wind coefficients; calculate, visualize and interpreted complex viscous flows; simulate
highly nonlinear free surface waves and wave impacts. We can organize and supervise model testing programs for wind tunnel testing and model test basins.
Stability, weight and loading conditions
Weight and loading
conditions are often the backbone of any successful project. We have
extensive experience, based on completed projects for all different kind
of units including jack-ups, semi-submersibles and monohulls.
For
the stability analyses (hydrostatics, intact and damage stability) we
select the most suitable program for the dedicated unit or vessel. With
our knowledge in this field we can carry out the stability calculations
in accordance with all the major classification rules, national and
international standards.
