  • Importing pressure database

    Hi, I am trying to insert a pressure database file (.dat) into my analysis. After reading about half of the file, Moses stops and closes. There is no error or warning in the log file. It echos lines upto FPANEL FPM1045 .... and then nothing. The file…
  • Rhino Import to Maxsurf

    I have created this hull form comprised of NURB surfaces, and when I export it as a Maxsurf IGES file it appears in its entirety in Maxsurf. However, I can not add sections to it in the design grid and it will not calculate the hydrostatics. Without any…
  • Using MAXSURF to calculate added masses and moment of inertia.

    Hi everyone, Is it possible to calculate the added masses in the X and Y directions and the added moment of inertia of a given ship design using MAXSURF ??. Every tiny hint is welcome. Thank you very much in advance.
  • MOSES Automated Mesh Refinement

    Mesh quality is important because hydrodynamic results quality is dependent on the mesh quality. The automated mesh refinement feature subdivides the panel model for use as the hydrodynamic mesh. It is customary for several mesh densities to be evaluated…
  • Dynamic Analysis in SACS

    Hello, Is it possible to perform dynamic analysis in SACS by applying RAOs , seastate (wave period, wave height), drag coefficient with load cases on a structure connected to a ship and after the analysis to check the stress in the members of the structure…
  • AirGap Calculation in Moses

    Hello, Can anyone explain to me how to calculate the minimum air-gap needed for a catamaran vessel. I am working on a catamaran vessel that will be classed for unrestricted service. I have developed the model in Moses and now I want to calculate the…
  • Hull model composed of various pieces

    Q: Can I use a hull model composed of various PGEN definitions that share surfaces for hydrodynamics? REV 5.10 A: Absolutely not! You must have a single enclosed surface for hydrodynamics computations. You should use COMPART_SUM panels to make sure…
  • Periods used for the hydrodynamic database, and the period used for the wave spectrum

    Q: I have computed pressures on the hull for encounter periods ranging from 4 seconds to 30 seconds. Can I use these to look at a sea state with a peak period of 4 seconds? REV 6.02 A: No, this is not good practice. You should always make sure you have…
