Marine & Offshore Services

Marine and offshore structures require a distinct design due to their operating environment (salt-water/wave loads/hydrostatic pressure). Detailed structural analysis including highly dynamic analysis for large nonlinear displacement, fluid-structure interaction, advanced boundary conditions, hydrodynamic & hydroacoustic analysis, seakeeping and motion analyses, Naval Architecture, Marine Engineering, FEMS Regulatory (ABS, USCG, API) compliance, Barge energy efficiency optimization, sea trials support, vibration and fracture analysis, design-optimization, lifecycle estimation and compliance with marine industrial code. Our highly skilled simulation experts have years of experience in supporting our clients in such comprehensive analysis and would be happy to explore new challenges in this domain.

FEA
