Ship Structural Design - ABS Safehull Analysis
 

Phase B Global Structure Analysis  

Viking Systems creates the global model using SAGA and MSC/Nastran modeling system for import into SafeHull Phase B for DLA loading, solving, and evaluation to ABS Rules.

Bottom Girder Assessment

ABS requires local analyses of transverse frames, horizontal stringers, and bottom girders.

 

 The local structural models include all openings for evaluation of opening stress.  In addition these models are used for design of stiffeners, panel breakers and other local details

 

Viking Systems uses SafeHull to evaluate the structure for yielding and buckling of panels as well as overall buckling of decks, tanktops, bulkheads, and bottom shell. 

Horizontal Stringer Assessment

Stringer deformation due to dynamic loading.

Transverse Frame Assessment 

Viking Systems uses SafeHull 2-D frame analysis to verify the Phase A rule-based scantlings.

 

 

A detailed model is used to adequately assess the strength and fatigue characteristics throughout the transverse frame.  In addition these models are used for design of stiffeners, panel breakers, and openings.
