SE-07 Non-linear hydrodynamics analysis of offshore floaters

This course introduces the participants to the Sesam programs for nonlinear wave load and motion analysis of floaters based on time domain methodology

Description

The course covers the description of the non-linear effects included, various types of environmental data that can be used as input, execution and animation of the time domain simulations, and load transfer of hydrodynamic results to structural analysis. HydroD is the main tool supported by Wasim and Xtract. You will also learn how to create section models for Wasim.

Learning scope

The following topics will be covered:

• Non-linear global motion analysis in time domain
• Load transfer to structural model
• Animation of results

Target group

Naval architects involved in conceptual studies, hydrodynamic analysis and detailed engineering of any offshore floating structure.
