Structural analysis is the process of calculating and determining the effects of loads and internal forces on structures, buildings, or objects.
It is particularly crucial for structural engineers to fully understand load paths and how these loads impact engineering design.
Lifting and payload analysis is the process of evaluating the forces and stability when equipment lifts and transports loads to ensure safe operations.
Modal and response analysis is the process of evaluating how a structure reacts to vibrations or external stimuli to assess its stability and performance.
Ship motion analysis is the process of evaluating how a vessel moves and responds to external environmental factors such as waves and wind to assess its safety and stability.
Mooring analysis is the process of evaluating whether a vessel or offshore structure can remain securely moored against external forces such as wind, waves, and currents.
Maneuvering analysis is the process of understanding how a vessel moves in the sea.
It is typically conducted using computer software, considering fundamental factors such as hull structure, appendages, mass, and inertia.
