Bentley’s CONNECT capabilities further enhance collaboration. MAXSURF uses a common design file system which is easily transferred to other users or incorporated into a document management / version control system such as ProjectWise. MAXSURF’s automation interface allows users to automate design evaluation from other tools such as Microsoft Excel, Friendship Systems CASES, etc.Ĭollaborate with others and exchange data without errors MAXSURF’s range of tools enables naval architects to explore design alternatives quickly, be this manually or using 3rd party formal optimization tools. Optimize vessel design for competing requirements Most common codes are included but full customised user-criteria may also be added. A full range of GZ-based stability criteria can be evaluated. Verify compliance with stability regulationsĬompliance with statutory stability requirements can be verified with Stability. MAXSURF has a range of efficient and accurate performance prediction tools: Resistance, sailing velocity prediction, ship response to waves

Improve design with accurate performance prediction

Modeler has a wide range of naval-architecture specific tools: sectional area curve, parametric transformation, upright hydrostatics, export to naval-architecture-specific 3rd party software etc. Some other modelling tools hide the detail – they look fine on a 28” screen but are not smooth and fair at full scale. This helps ensure that vessels are fair and suitable for construction. Modeler is focused on providing the best hull modelling tools – it is not a generic NURBS surface modeler. Ensure hull fairness and suitability for construction
