Business challenge

  • Providing the means for rapid development of meshed structural models of certain classes of ships.
  • Performing a finite element analysis of ship structures and providing visual feedback of their strength and deformations, including the fatigue check of structural details.

Technology solution

  • Development of the Leonardo Hull 3D — Three Hold (LH3D-3H) application.
  • LH3D-3H refers to analysis using a «three hold» approach, based on calculations carried out on three ship holds.
  • Calculations follow RINA Rules for the Classification of Ships and assess the ship’s structural compliance to these Rules.

Business value

  • Speed up the approval process of tankers, bulk carriers and other types of cargo ships.
  • RINA’s customers, i.e. shipyards now possess an easy-to-use tool for modeling and validating their ships during the production process.
  • Rapid numerical simulation that meets quality requirements and represents a highly efficient replacement of older software.
  • Facilities for monitoring the structural performance over the entire life cycle of a vessel and for timely maintenance support.
  • Tools for reporting and communication between the shipyard and RINA.
  • Reduction of the risk of delays during the drawing approval and construction phases due to early identification of critical areas.
