MARINE STRUCTURES CONSULTANCY SERVICES CONTACT (/CONTACT.HTML)

We provides customize structural engineering consultancy services including ship hull design and offshore engineering starting from feed to

economical solution and completion with engineering supervision in the fabrication, production and regulatory certification stage.

Our experienced naval architects and structure engineers having wide skills in the fields of hull design, analysis, production support and deep

knowledge of the shipbuilding, marine industry and offshore industry (DNV, ABS, RINA, ASME, API) provide best solutions.

We emphasize on continuous feedback and supervision with  shipyards and manufacturers, where continuous feedback,
monitoring and testing reduces production issues and increases significantly reliability within the entire lifetime of our
design.
Application of modern CAD software (AUTOCAD) allows for efficient passage from conceptual to detailed design phase
(fabrication drawings and 3D models for structural analysis) ensuring the necessary flexibility to adapt to changing customer
needs.
Softwares like ANSYS, STAAD, etc. allows for analysis and optimization of structures for yielding,buckling,and fatigue failure
modes.

SOLVING MARINE AND OFFSHORE STRUCTURAL PROBLEMS

Our structural engineers and naval architects provide best solutions in finite element analysis codes assisted by, pre- and

post-processing analysis softwares programs to assess structural adequacy for:

Yield and ultimate strength

Buckling modes
Fatigue checking
Fracture Mechanics

Working stress, LRFD or reliability-based results are provided for detail and production drawings which will further utilized
in bidding and fabrication.
Our professional background includes everything from analysis, research to provide practical and cost effective production
solutions.

MARINE AND OFFSHORE STRUCTURE VIBRATION

Vibration due to diesel engines, whirling vibration of engine shaft lines and plummer blocks axial vibration are potential
problems for any ship's propulsion system.
We are using special assessment tools to provide shaft line alignment analysis and other supervision techniques to solve
operation problems.
We provide FEM solutions for propeller induced vibration,engine foundation vibration with surrounding hull and
accommodation.
 We are able to provide measurements of modal characteristics and response shapes, as well as strain measurements.

FINITE ELEMENT TECHNIQUES

We have the expertise for FE analysis of  whole ship and offshore structures, particularly in the field of dynamic load

simulation.We provide best solutions for Hull Girder Strength & Scantlings , General & Production Structural Drawings, Finite
Element analysis of the Global Hull structure as well as detailed Local analysis of foundations.

FEM STATIC ANALYSIS

Static analysis is used to determine the displacements, stresses, strains, and forces in structures or components caused by
loads that do not induce significant inertia and damping effects. Steady loading and response conditions are assumed; that
is, the loads and the structure's response are assumed to vary slowly with respect to time.
