Basic FEM Enhancements

The finite element capabilities of the SACS suite have been strengthened and enhanced. The improved capabilities are a result of both a new development push and strategic partnerships formed with finite element software packages such as FEMGV. The new technology and partnerships should ensure that the SACS software system can be used for all aspects of offshore structural analysis including determining stresses, displacements, and pressure distributions on structures ranging from hulls of floating structures to structural components such as bulkhead framing, tubular connections, lift appurtenances, etc. Click here for more information.
