BIO & Abstract
Alexander Sushchikh, is the Founder and Director of AutoFEM Software LLP. He is a Doctor of Philosophy in the field of calculation methods, and has more than twenty years’ experience in finite element simulation and corresponding software development. His company develops and markets a package of the finite element analysis software (AutoFEM Analysis) that is integrated with AutoCAD (Autodesk, Inc.) and ShipConstructor (SSI, Inc.).
Ship Buoyancy and Ship Hydrostatics Calculation with AutoFEM Analysis and ShipConstructor
New AutoFEM modules devoted to specific calculations being used in shipbuilding are presented at the first time. The module “Ship Buoyancy & Stability” provides the calculation of a vessel state in calm water and allows to find a corresponding hydrostatic pressure and obtain a ship stability diagram as well. These data can be then used as input for “Ship Hydrostatics” and therefore a strength analysis of a floating ship is available. All advantages of AutoFEM & ShipConstructor integration are remain and can be used by ShipConstructor’s users.
Day 1 – 17:00 – 17:20
Simulation of Lift and Transporting Operations of Ship Units with AutoFEM and ShipConstructor
The demonstration of joint work of AutoFEM Analysis and ShipConstructor software is considered in the presentation. Static and dynamic analysis are available and allow anyone to carry out as simple static strength analysis of a certain ship structure and as well more complicated cases if necessary.
3D model and other data (such as materials) are directly retrieved from the ShipConstructor database.
All calculations are carried out straightly inside the AutoCAD & ShipConstructor environment providing easy access to FEA simulation for all ShipConstructor users.

Integrated Skills – Linking Academy with Industry
Introduction: “Entrepreneurs, You have to break into Schools and Universities” – Maria Fernanda Rollo, former Portugal Higher Education secretary of state, in Observador
The demographic crisis in Europe and the fourth industrial revolution pose a serious problem for companies and universities to meet the immediate and future needs of skilled profiles, particularly in technologically intensive industries such as the Naval sector.
The first ones to integrate them, the second ones to form them according to the quantitative and qualitative needs of the market.
Therefore, the linkage and joint work between them will need to be strengthened and involve an increasingly “out of the box” approach.
In addition, the excellence of technical training it’s scarce to respond to the market skills demand. Schools and Universities (together with companies) must contribute to the student’s personal development, preparing them for the social challenges that integration and professional development entails.

Jan O. Fischer is Director of COSTFACT GmbH. The same-named software system is specializing in the maritime sector and combines several advanced cost management methods. Besides his engagement in the deployment of CostFact, Jan is strongly involved in software implementation. That means that he is in permanent and close contact with clients and users. Before founding COSTFACT in 2008, Jan worked for seven years as consultant in the area of cost efficient design and carried out various projects that focused on the interfaces between technical and economic issues.
Cost Management in Shipbuilding: Utilization of Technical Data for Cost Estimation
Cost Management starts with the proposal and bidding process. The “CostFact” software system supports cost management throughout all shipbuilding stages including the early phases of design, engineering, calculations that accompany production, and finally to the analysis of a completed project. The benefits of CostFact include improved efficiency, speed and error avoidance in cost planning, analysis and optimization through the project lifecycle, generating reliable quotes, and consistency throughout the proposal and calculation process to ensure transparency and comprehension. By linking the CAD-system “ShipConstructor” and CostFact, initial project cost estimations are based on existing as-is ShipConstructor design models. This is used as a basis for adapting to changes and modifications in the project to capture cost deviations early. Further, the change processes in shipbuilding are streamlined significantly, providing consistent information flow between technical and financial departments.

Platform and ShipConstructor in parallel and downstream of architectural design as the production engineering and manufacturing
management platform, in direct support of the overall, extended company process.
Day 2 – 15:40 – 16:00
Shared & Collaborative Environment (2)
Synergies and certain overlaps between platforms and process components constitute a significant advantage and especially
so in presence of shared, distributed, collaborative work. A closer look at the interaction and mutual support provided by the
Autodesk / McNeel platforms focuses on the ability this provides to several applications to contribute to a common “space”.
Crucially, alternative workflows can then be implemented that make optimum use of available resources by dynamically
adapting to change and unexpected situations.
Day 2 – 18:05 – 18:20
EnterprisePlatform: the Deliverables Machine
One fundamental mission of EnterprisePlatform is to keep documents up to date nd to deliver them to the designated consumer(s).

ESSS is an ANSYS Elite Channel Partner, meaning we provide top Quality Services and Support to our Clients.
ANSYS software enables you to solve complex structural engineering problems and make better, faster design decisions.
Designing ships is a demanding process, as vessels are among the most massive and mechanically complex moving structures in the world. Ships must operate reliably in harsh environments and meet stringent standards. Engineering demands are particularly challenging in designing work vessels for harbor and open-water applications, such as hoisting, dredging, construction, pipelaying and other marine operations. The hull and internal structural members must be seaworthy and stable. In addition, topside mechanical assemblies, such as cranes, must provide sufficient strength and reliability to work efficiently even while waves excite the ship.
In this presentation, Naval simulation applications using ANSYS will be shown, comprising Fluid-dynamics, Structural Analysis, and Electromagnetism.

and stable. In addition, topside mechanical assemblies, such as cranes, must provide sufficient strength and reliability to work
efficiently even while waves excite the ship.
In this presentation, Naval simulation aplications using ANSYS will be shown, comprising Fluid-dynamics, Structural Analysis
and Electromagnetism.

ExpressMarine: a ShipConstructor Pre-Processor
ExpressMarine, Rhino3D’s parametric structural modelling plug-in, is presented as an out-of-the-box solution used as a
modeling pre-processor for ShipConstructor. The native ExpressMarine/ Rhino3D geometrical model is read directly into
AutoCAD/ ShipConstructor, and serves the purpose of laying, starting day 1, a 3D groundwork in ShipConstructor, usable for
GA plans, on-board system layouts, functional placement of equipment, etc. The ExpressMarine model is evolutive and can be
conveniently re-imported into ShipConstructor at any moment along the design process, for example to follow the evolutions
of the naval architecture model (hull form updates, or else). The use-case of a 115m Fast Ferry demonstrates one of several
possible workflows.

Tiago Fernandes
Aerospace Engineer at Vera Navis
BIO & Abstract
Tiago Fernandes studied Aerospace Engineer and guided his professional experience to computational tools and expertise within multidisciplinary engineer projects. With participation in projects for individual or complex assembly structural assessment, computational fluid dynamics to evaluate pressure, temperature and other relevant variables and projects in data analysis and machine learning techniques, the accumulated expertise allows a broad point of view in each day-to-day engineering problem.
After four years working as a consultant for multiple industries like automotive, aerospace, naval and heavy industries, arose the opportunity to embrace a naval engineering career making use of all previous expertise and complement it by learning the necessary set of skills and knowledge to address both project and construction of a vessel. He is currently working as a Project Manager at Vera Navis, ensuring that all production information comply with client tight schedule and ongoing improvements/decisions as well as the constant technological challenges.
Ship Structural Assessment for Increasing Operation Conditions in Harsh Environments.
Over the past years, we witnessed a demand for increasing internal pressure on the cargo tank of specialized vessels. Despite all the experience in designing different vessel types, we found the need to use computational tools (FEM) to evaluate and re-design the main structure according to all new operational conditions.
At the beginning of the project we defined which were the more demanding operational load cases for the structure. Despite many advances and setback throughout the entire project, the team reached a solution to satisfy the client needs and, bearing in mind all the construction process, to avoid complex challenges at future phases.
The global overview of the project, using a cross-disciplinary and collective constructivism, contributed to a better end-product with lower risks and bottlenecks throughout the certification and construction phases of the vessel.
