Designing Safe and Reliable Ships - Article - ANSYS Advantage - V3 I2

Delta Marine Engineering uses up-front simulation to design ships that are more comfortable and last longer. Complex fluid and structural interactions govern the performance of a ship, so Delta Marine uses ANSYS Mechanical structural mechanics software and ANSYS FLUENT fluid dynamics software early in the design process to understand the intricacies. Engineers can identify vibration and other problems early on and make changes, such as altering a propeller design, to get the design right the first time. This avoids the need for expensive changes that could run into millions of dollars if the problem is not discovered until after the ship is launched.

ANSYS software helped in designing a deep-sea submersible to reach the lowest point on earth.

Sailing Past a Billion - Article - ANSYS Advantage - V3 I2

Racing yacht design researchers push flow simulation past a meshing milestone. In recent years, several leading America’s Cup sailing teams have become topshelf users of flow simulation software by pushing the envelope of existing meshing and solver technology. Just a decade ago, experiments on physical models — using wind tunnels and towing tanks — were the main tools for the top teams in their external aerodynamic and hydrodynamic investigations. The option of simulating a number of boat designs in a virtual environment has been shown to have several advantages, including full control of all the parameters involved, repeatability of the measurements, and the ability to simulate non-standard sailing condition scenarios.
