Seakeeping
Platforms motions and vessels hydrodynamics loading computations.

Applications

Seakeeping
Mooring
Strength, loads & F.E.M. coupling
Stability
Marine operation (offloading, deckmating)

Analysed structures can be
FPSO’s, LNG Carrier, Tanker, CALM Buoy, Frigate and military vessels, Tugs…

DIODORE in Brief (472.2K)

Modeling

Potential flow solver (diffraction-radiation, sloshing, neuman-kelvin)
Multi-bodies
Infinite and finite depth
With or without forward speed
Frequency and time domain mechanical solver
Full low frequency wave loads (full QTF) using HydroStar (Bureau Veritas)
Interface with F.E.M analysis
Dynamic positionning
Manoeuvrability

Results

Stability data (GZ cruves…)
Hydrodynamic pressures and loads
Mooring line tensions
Loads in fenders
Wave Frequency motions (RAO’s and time series)
Low frequency motions
