Main Capabilities of SDC Verifier

Loads and Combinations

Simplify complex load scenarios with automated load combinations.
Analyze structural responses by separating base loads and combining results for real-world accuracy.
Apply pre-defined load types, including buoyancy, wind, and wave loads, effortlessly.

Buoyancy Load

A water pressure acting on a construction (e.g. ship hull) including wave parameters.

Tank Ballast

Fluid level based on a mass content transferred into a pressure level on a tank surface.

Wind Load

Height dependent pressure applied to the model taking into account the element area exposed to the wind direction.

Wave and Current Loads

Apply force and pressure based on wave parameters (height, length, crest, amplitude, etc.).

#Main Capabilities of SDC Verifier

Modelling and Meshing

Quickly create models by adjusting only essential parameters.
Integrate drawings, CAD files, or FEA models directly into a user-friendly interface.
Save time with parametric modeling that eliminates redundant steps.

#Main Capabilities of SDC Verifier

Automatic Detection of Structural Elements

Identify beams, plates, welds, stiffeners, and connections instantly.
Use tools like Joint Finder and Weld Finder for precise recognition and streamlined verification.
Enhance accuracy by automating repetitive detection tasks.

Joint and Connections Finder

Joint and Connections Finder recognizes the different types of connections in 1D models to determine buckling length and further use in Joint Checks.

Beam Member Finder

Beam Member Finder detects beam members’ lengths in 3 directions (Y, Z, and Torsion). Buckling length is calculated between the joints and does not depend on the model mesh.

Weld Finder

Weld Finder detects welds and automatically transforms the stresses from the element’s local coordinate system into the weld direction for further use in fatigue and weld strength calculations.

Panel Finder

Panel Finder automatically recognizes sections, plates, and stiffeners with the dimensions (length, width, thickness, and orientation) used in plate buckling calculations.

#Main Capabilities of SDC Verifier

Standards & Design Code Verification

Verify models against over 55+ industry standards from SDC Verifier’s library, including Eurocode, API, and ABS.
Ensure compliance for offshore, heavy lifting, energy, and more with built-in rules.
Automate checks to save time and reduce the risk of manual errors.

Check Standards Library

#Main Capabilities of SDC Verifier

Structure Optimization

Optimize designs based on parameters like weld types, plate thickness, and cross-sections in Optimization Module.
Reduce material use and project costs without compromising safety or performance.
Generate cost-effective solutions tailored to specific usage conditions.

#Main Capabilities of SDC Verifier

Automatic reporting

Create structured reports that include model descriptions, results, and visual plots in Report Designer.
Regenerate updated reports in one click after model adjustments.
Export reports in Word, PowerPoint, or PDF formats for presentations or documentation.

Post-processing tools

Governing loads

Governing loads tool extracts the critical loads out of a large group of load combinations. Save time focusing on important situations instead of checking each and every.

Peak Finder

Peak Finder finds all peak zones based on output results and presents them using a special plot and a summary table. The peaks for any simple FEA results as stresses, strains or displacements can be found, but also all available results from the SDC Verifier checks (Fatigue, Beam Buckling, etc.)

Freebody

Freebody – calculates a balanced set of forces/moments on a chosen part of a model. It is possible to retrieve internal/external loads to be used for substructure modeling or find contact/connector forces by manipulating with a custom selection of nodes/elements.
