The Rule Check package offers all the programs you need to verify your ship according to the DNV Rules for Classification of Ships and the IACS Common Structural Rules for Tankers and Bulk Carriers.
The preferred and ultimate software solution for rule check and initial scantling design.
The user-friendliness and powerful modelling capabilities make the Rule Check package a generic design tool and a preferred system among ship designers for initial hull girder design and optimisation.
The Rule Check package is the entry point to Nauticus Hull. Initial information about the ship structure is entered into the concept model of Nauticus Hull, and the information is re-used by other software packages available in Nauticus Hull. Several individual tools are available.
Section Scantlings
Section Scantlings is used for designing ship cross-sections and transverse bulkheads. A rule check can be performed to verify the hull girder longitudinal strength, local strength and buckling of plates and stiffeners. Shear flow calculations are also included in the program. The model data defined by Section Scantlings may later be expanded into 3D finite element models. The Section Scantlings Program of Nauticus Hull is well established as the market leader for hull scantling design.
Fatigue
Fatigue calculations of longitudinals are done directly from Section Scantlings. Structural data such as stiffener dimensions, end connection and bracket geometry are all input in the Section Scantlings program and used to calculate the fatigue strength. As a result of this, user interaction is reduced to a minimum and results are presented directly in the Section Scantlings report.
Rule Check XL
Together with the Section Scantlings program the Nauticus Hull Rule Check XL programs provide all features needed to carry out rule check and hull structural analysis according to the DNV Rules for Ships and the IACS common structural rules. The Rule Check XL programs are all fully integrated into the Nauticus Hull system and share common ship data with the other Nauticus Hull modules.
Rule Check Extended
Nauticus 3DBeam is a highly efficient three-dimensional general beam element ananlysis program offered in the Rule Check Extended package 3D Beam program is an important supplement to the Rule Check programs and a valuable tool for strength evaluation of both ship and frame structures.
