Bulk carriers are subjected to IACS regulations, concerning the structural integrity of their cargo holds. In sagging and hogging loading conditions the structure of the ship is exposed to maximum values of bending moment and shear force. As a result these conditions are crucial for the determination of the minimum required scantlings, through a global model analysis. This white paper presents the FE model creation of a handymax class bulk carrier and a methodology for modeling realistic, wave induced loading conditions. The whole project has been completed inside ANSA while the FE model was solved in Nastran. ANSA and μETA comprise the pre- & post-processing suite of BETA CAE Systems S.A..
