Autoshipwww.autoship.com Email: [email protected] Systems Corporation (ASC)of Vancouver, Canada announced in Sep- tember a new installation of its naval ar- chitecture and ship production software to Estaleiro IIha (EISA) of Rio deJaneiro, Brazil. EISA has chosen ?TheAutoSHIP WORKS Package? which will allow them to carry a new project from hull lines right through to nested parts ina shorter time frame and with more accu-racy. ?The AutoSHIP WORKS Package? consists of Autoship (hull design), Au- topower (resistance & power prediction), Autohydo (hydrostatics & stability), Au- toplate (shell expansion), Autostructure (internal structural design) and Produc-tion Manager (nesting & parts manage-ment). This system offers robust functionality with the best in GUI (graph-ical user interface) design, resulting in better use of the user?s time. Autoship Systems continues to see strong growth amongst shipyards who realize that bringing their marine engineering in-house will allow them to have faster, bet- ter and lower cost results. AVEVA, Inc. http://www.aveva.com Email: [email protected] month AVEVA announced that SungDong Shipbuilding & Marine Engi- neering Co. Ltd. (SungDong) has ex- tended its contract for the use of AVEVA Marine to drive the design of commercial vessels. The new licenses will be used throughout its four shipyards in Korea for the design and production of vessels which include bulk carriers, container carriers and FSOs (Floating Storage &Offloading). SungDong selected AVEVA as its key solution partner due to its out- standing record in hull and outfitting so- lutions as well as the suitability of theAVEVA solutions for offshore design and production. Additional benefits include the protection of SungDong?s legacy data and AVEVA?s onsite engineering support team based in Busan, which can provide responsive local support. Beta CAE Systemswww.ansa-usa.com Email: [email protected] The flexibility of ANSA fits well into the unique CAE requirements of Marineengineers. The 64-bit version of ANSA is a refreshing remedy for the many issues encountered when creating highly accu-rate and complex marine vessel models. The advanced CFD and Structural mesh algorithms, developed indigenously, work well with the fully integrated batch meshing tool. ANSA is capable of han- dling large ? scale model building geared towards: Structural and CFD analysis of rotat- ing machinesHeat and Mass Flow analysis Wave Load analysis Ship-to-Ship collision analysis Component and Assembly modeling of HVAC systems Drag analysis of race boats And a host of other marine structures CD Adapcowww.cd-adapco.com Email: [email protected] has a 28 year history ofproviding state-of-the-art flow, thermal and stress simulation technology to themarine industry. From large shipyards to suppliers of small components, the use ofour technology has become a standardfeature in the marine design and safetyassurance process. Using cutting edgesolver technology, CD-adapco?s cus- tomers have been able to tackle some of the most demanding problems that themarine industry has to offer, allowing en- gineers and designers to predict how de- signs will react in operation, beforebudget is committed to the construction of expensive prototypes. Recent suc- cesses include: ship keeping, slamming and sloshing; wave and wind loading on offshore and underwater structures; oil and pollutant dispersions; cavitation con- trol and propulsion system optimization.Dassault Systemeswww.3ds.com Dassault Systèmes (DS)' Product LifeCycle Management (PLM) solutions arecomprised of applications, services, andmethodologies that address the uniqueneeds of the industry. The solutions leverage the strengths of our brands (CATIA for defining the virtual product, SIMULIA for realistic simulation,DELMIA for digital manufacturing, EN- OVIA for collaboration and business process management, 3DVIA for con- sumer experiences) and can be comple- mented by offers from our partners.

Herbert Engineeringwww.herbertsoftware.com Email: [email protected] Earlier this year, Herbert Engineering Corp. (HEC) and class society ABS en- tered into an agreement to form a jointventure company, Herbert-ABS Software Solutions, LLC (Herbert-ABS). Herbert-ABS will offer leading edge loading and salvage analysis software packages as well as software design tools to the mar- itime and offshore industries. Herbert- ABS will own, market and support the existing suite of Herbert software prod- ucts including its shipboard loading soft-ware (CargoMax), salvage response software (HECSALV), and load manage- ment software for offshore structures (LMP). Herbert-ABS will leverage the resources of ABS as well as HEC?s of- fices in China and Europe to provide its clients worldwide service and support. HydroComp, Inc. www.hydrocompinc.com E-mail: [email protected] HydroComp NavCad is a software tool for the prediction and analysis of vessel speed and power performance. It also provides for the selection of suitable propulsion system components ? en-gines, gears and propellers.New technical development HydroComp has been working since late 2009 on the development of a new ar- chitecture for NavCad, and improve- ments to the interface. This new platform was developed with an eye to the future, and will provide a new structure for fu- ture development. New development leading to the initial release of NavCad 2011 includes: Improvements to the NavCad inter- face, with a more table-oriented data entry. A new file format, based on Hydro- Comp's new common file standard that was first implemented in our PropEle- ments detail propeller design software. Advances in the Method Expert, de- rived from internal R&D projects. Extensive improvements to existing prediction methods, such as our work on planing hull resistance prediction (withthe addition of spray drag, effect of propulsor lift, and more).New prediction methods, including bare-hull drag for barge forms and added resistance in seaways for workboats.
