Select and generate design loads for global FE analyses of ship structures.
ShipLoad software provides support in modelling the mass distribution of the ship, including outfitting, cargo and selecting the appropriate design waves. The resulting static and dynamic loads (both from inertia and water pressure) for global Finite Element (FE) analyses are exported to FE codes. The load types are combined to yield balanced load cases.
To find the most relevant regular waves, ShipLoad analyses numerous wave situations. Thanks to an easy-to-use mechanism for defining the selection criteria, you can specify which design waves are to be chosen for the global strength analysis. The outcome is a small number of balanced load cases that are sufficient for dimensioning the hull structure.
