Modeling Capabilities	Return to Services Page

Viking Systems is the developer of SAGA Ships, our in-house software system that enables us to rapidly and accurately create structural finite element models. Structural modeling features of SAGA include:
Automated shell mesh generation from hull offset tables, structural drawings or general arrangement drawings. Global model produced from offsets with SAGA Automated deck and bulkhead mesh generation. Automated lumping of stiffener properties for coarse mesh global models Automated updating of beam properties to include attached plating for hybrid beam theory. Global Model Internal Detail		Mesh refinement capabilities for local model generation Corrosion deduction regions allow for rapid corrosion modeling Local Model of Transverse Web Frame Viking Systems uses SAGA in combination with FEMAP and MSC/Nastran to create a wide range of both global and local models. Model size and mesh density is customized to meet the needs of the client and the requirements of the project. Local Model of Collar Detail
