Limit curves
• The longitudinal strength limit curves are
created by using STRLIM Manager Application

 3/31/2016

Output

• Strength distribution lists and diagrams

– With commands in main window
– Output tab of Loading Condition window
– Manager application ENV
• Envelope curves & shear force corrections
– Manager application ENV

• The stored limit curves are fetched with LD argument

Longitudinal strength in wave

• Calculation of the floating position, stability and

longitudinal strength is possible also in waves

• Wave is defined by its height, length, shape, position

and direction

• Sinus or Trochoid shaped wave available

Deflection of hull girder

• Deflection of hull girder can be listed in still water or wave

• Modulus of elasticity and Moment of inertia of cross section

for the girder are defined as part of lightweight definition

• Floating position with deflection taken into account can

also be iterated
