Outline of MOSES Uses
With the generality necessary to convey the comprehensive nature of
MOSES, it is often unclear precisely what type of problem that MOSES
can handle. Below, a brief list of tasks that have been successfully
tackled is given. This list, of course, is not complete since MOSES
is extraordinarily adaptable.
- Traditional hydrostatics
- Ballasting during loadout
- Stress analysis during loadout
- Multi-Point mooring design and analysis
- Tanker berthing analysis
- CALM and SALM analysis
- Simulation and stress analysis of lifting structure off of a barge and lowering it into the sea.
- Pipelaying from a stinger
- Pipelaying from davits
- Simulation and stress analysis of a jacket off of several barges including the flexibility of the barge in the stress analysis
- Upending of a jacket and performing a stress analysis during the upending
- Simulation of impact during mating operations
- Mating of a deck with a TLP hull
- In service stress analysis of a TLP
- Transporation of a TLP
- Transportation stress analysis of structures including the effect of the barge flexibility.
- Installation of a compliant tower
- Dynamic analysis of a tower being flooded
