Finite Element and Topology Optimization Analysis by Topologica Solutions

Overview

The challenges are high in the marine industry. Large models are usually very demanding in terms of simulation setup and calculation time and this require very robust and accurate solver that can handle millions of degree of freedom (DOF).

Topologica Solutions is leader in providing simulation tools to the marine industry. Products like NEi Nastran, Femap, NEi Fusion and NEi Works provide the ability to rapidly evolve ideas into reality for maximum returns on your investment.

Benefits

Design for durability
Manage and reduce risk
Reduce physical prototypes
Improve quality and innovation

Applications

Structural systems: full vessel modeling, structure, engines and controls

Composites: Structural and dynamic design and finite element analysis of composite structures including honeycomb panels, complex laminations and 3D micro models of joints and failure zones

Under water: Simulating the effects of underwater explosions on ships and submarines (DDAM and USA support).

Noise: Attenuation of noise generated by underwater vehicles

Other applications: Fatigue analysis survey and life prediction of complete vessels, structural analysis of submarine frames to predict buckling modes, Thermo-mechanical simulation of engines under different operating conditions
