    Dear all, kindly please your advice and enlighten regarding this issue. I tried to run Static Analysis in SACS consists of Gravity Loads, Environmental Loads, and Inertia Loads on FPSO Module. unfortunately, I found some strange results for the…
  • SACS Member Orientation Angle

    I am doing a lifting analysis of a topside structure, and need to tilt the model. After i tilt the model, the orientation angle of the member also change from 'zero' to the rotational angle i stated. Is this normal ? or should i need to set reference…

  • How to separate topside from jacket in analysis

    Greetings all, I appreciate it if you can give me a clue to overcome this issue. Although it should be simple, it's complex for me. I'm trying to perform inplace analysis on an existing platform model. The load is applied to both topside and jacket…
  • Forming Triangular Prismatic for SPM Interior Compartment in MOSES

    Dear Sir/Madam, Currently, I'm working on creating a hexagonal Single Point Mooring model in MOSES EDITOR. I need to form the compartment model inside the SPM. Since the SPM has a hexagonal form, thus the compartment has to be a Triangular Prismatic…
  • MOSES vessel modelling

    Hi all.. I a trying to learn MOSES the hard way, from the reference manuals, online tutorials and looking at the files from vessel library. I am creating the model of a semisubmersible of arbitrary dimensions, for hydrodynamic analysis. I have reached…
  • 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…
  • How to model two beams between the same joints

    Hello All, What will be your suggestions for modelling two beams between the same joints. Simply consider beams A and B in the image below: Thank you.
  • Vessel Modelling

    I am a new user to MOSES. I have observed a webinars in which MOSES Hull Modelling & Hydrostatics & Motion Analysis module shows SACS Module as a part of MOSES. Generally whats the best way of modelling a vessel in MOSES. Through SACS Modeller and importing…
  • RE: Request for topside modeling & jointcan check

    1. Unfortunately I can't give you advice about the best way to model. It seems that you understand the implications of each modelling method and the trade-offs of each one. It is up to you as the engineer to decide which method is most appropriate for…
  • RE: member offset

    C.karthikeyan, The member offsets can only be set in either global or local offsets so you will have to convert the one of the offsets to the other and then add them together. You can convert offsets easily using the "convert selected offsets to X coordinates…
  • RE: How can I model solid rods in sacs

    C.karthikeyan, You can use the tubular section type and override the section properties to match that of a solid rod. Regards, Geoff
  • RE: haunched section

    Karthikeyan, You need to consider what you are actually doing when creating these models. It isn't always appropriate to simply make the model look like the final as-built product. You must think about how the beam-elements will be handled when converted…
