The marine industry faces a number of major challenges including new regulations aimed at reducing environmental footprint, an over-supplied market leading to low margins and tight competition, and design methods that are no longer fit for purpose, making rapid innovation difficult to achieve. Overcoming the latter is vital to success in the other challenges.
Developing the next generation of ships and improving the efficiency of the existing fleet requires an integrated approach to design. Traditional design-test-build methodologies are expensive, time-consuming, and fail to predict accurately how the complete vessel and its systems will behave under real-world operating conditions. Naval architects need to deliver large efficiency improvements in short time frames, which cannot be realized with existing design methodologies.
Innovative companies are using simulation-driven design methods to rapidly test multiple options and explore the complete vessel operating space. We help you achieve your design goals faster by providing an unparalleled portfolio of solutions for predictive engineering analytics: the application of multidisciplinary simulation, supported by testing and benchmarking, combined with intelligent reporting and data analytics. Our solutions include software, physical testing, and engineering services, enabling you to meet and exceed efficiency requirements. Use these solutions as part of your complete product lifecycle management system.
