Ship Design
The SALT provides designs for different kind of ships. Our design team has the ability to undertake all stages of ship design:
> Concept Design
> Basic Design
> Detailed Design
The process of ship design has an iterative nature that is most commonly described by a design spiral that reflects the design methodology and strategy.
Concept Design
> Reception of Product Functional / Technical Specification, and Product Concept proposal.
> Analysis of requirements which enables us to identify the best solution to fulfil them.
> Preliminary technical reports and studies. We use the most commonly used engineering calculation software to prepare these
> Project drafts.
Basic Design
> Production of technical specifications for equipment and materials.
> Basic design of mechanical, hydraulic, pneumatic and electrical systems using general or specific engineering software.
> Production of engineering calculations, technical studies and reports. We use the most commonly used engineering calculation software to prepare these
> Qualification of equipment and material in accordance with the client’s specification and/or current regulations.
Detailed Design
> Calculation of supports and structures using finite elements
> 3D modeling, 2D and 3D drawings using outlines, diagrams and P&ID developed during the basic design
> Construction and assembly design
> Detailed design of mechanical, hydraulic, pneumatic and electrical systems
> Production of lists of materials
> Layout and network of conduits and electrical wiring
> Piping isometrics
> Studies of the installations’ general arrangemen
Structural FEM Analysis
Our structural team is able to tackle in a purely professional manner any task associated with stress and strength analysis. Sophisticated Finite Element Method (FEM) Analysis programs may be used in addition to model structural details and simulate successfully structural responses, thus deducting reliable results in high detail.
> Local/global 3D FEM assessment / Optimisation
> Equipment based assessment
> Stress Analysis | Modal Analysis | Harmonic Analysis | Buckling Analysis
CFD Analysis
> Still water simulation for motor boats, with displacement and planing hulls, with trim and resistance prediction
> Appendages and forward bulbs simulation and analysis, with consequent shapes optimization reducing the resistance and / or ship motions
> Appendices for sailboats cruise and regatta simulation and analysis
> Boat motions on regular and irregular waves simulation and analysis
> Stream-lines in characteristic points analysis, bottom pressure mapping
> Self-propulsion simulations in virtual towing tank via actuator disc
Stability Loading Computer
> Ship stability (Under Construction)
Project Management
> Ship bulding projects
> Product development
> Steel structures
> Conversions
> Supporting projects
