Program description Version 18 April 2024

Course objectives
This course covers the process of setting up a multi-body hydrostatic interaction analysis. It is intended for naval architects, and transport & salvage engineers, challenged by such advanced hydrostatic problem. Typical applications are: detailed simulation of loading and unloading floating objects by partially submerging the carrier, complex salvage procedure modeling, dry docking, articulated floating structures, etc.

By the end of the course, participants are able to set up multi-body hydrostatic interaction analysis

Syllabus
– General principles
– Grounding
– Setting up a simple MB simulation
– Exchanging data and variables across the MB sessions
– 3D rendering
