Settings of integration with ShipConstructor

AutoFEM Analysis is unique in its ability to integrate with the ShipConstructor environment and, most especially, project database. The corresponding functionalities are offered automatically to the user when opening a ShipConstructor drawing.

AutoFEM - ShipConstructor integration settings are found in the command dialogue "Set of objects for FEA"

The Integration of AutoFEM Analysis with ShipConstructor software includes the following features:
• AutoFEM acquires the ShipConstructor model units, and will use them for FEA;

• AutoFEM acquires the ShipConstructor part names, and uses them to identify the corresponding FE objects in FEA study;
• AutoFEM acquires the mechanical properties of ShipConstructor parts from the project database, for use in FEA (first integration alternative);

• AutoFEM acquires the material name of ShipConstructor parts from the project database and uses the mechanical properties of the material bearing the same name found in the AutoFEM library (second integration alternative).
