From the design and manufacture of small recreational craft to large oil tankers, using FEA- and CFD-based simulation, Simulation Dynamics assists shipbuilders and boat designers to develop higher-performing, safer and lower-cost vessels.
Through the application of simulation technology and consulting services, Simulation Dynamics helps the marine and shipbuilding industry solve complex engineering challenges and mitigate environmental risks associated with seagoing loads including structural, hydrodynamics, vibro-acoustics, thermal and fatigue.
Simulation Dynamics has a staff of highly qualified engineers and naval architects who have maintained leading-edge know-how and development skills. Our engineers have rich experience in computer modeling of structures and in the application of linear and non-linear (implicit and explicit) finite element codes, together with advanced CFD tools coupled to FEA for precise, near-real-time modeling of complicated floating structures that experience FSI across a wide range of engineering problems.
Simulation Dynamics has a proven track record in structural analysis, marine investigation and surveying. We employ the most advanced computational tools to meet almost any analysis need, including:
-
▶
Global and detailed direct structural assessment (FEM, Finite Element Method), including verification of Fiber-Reinforced Polymer (FRP) structures for boats
-
▶
Performance prediction based on Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) analysis
-
