CAFE – Tool for rapid Ship Design

SimFWD is a value-added CAE reseller of the following tools in Greece and the Balkans:

•    CAESES
•    CAFE
•    midasNFX
•    FINE™/Marine
•    MAAT Hydro

CAFE is a very powerful ship-modeling tool that offers innovative features that not only ensures faster and easier user interaction but also results in a large time saving for modeling. The CAFE framework supports a wide variety of imports from widely used CAD and CAE software. Following the quick definition of the hull shape, main structural components like transverse and longitudinal bulkheads, double bottom, double hull and decks can be modelled using the innovative functions that CAFE has to offer. Lastly, the user can define Openings and stiffeners with great ease. These structural entities can also be parametric in nature.

CAFE is widely used for the initial stage of the Ship Design process, but apart from this it also offers other functionalities like weight and surface calculations, strength calculation, lighting distribution, cost calculation (including piping and electric installation), etc. Models generated in CAFE can be meshed and the mesh can then be exported in a suitable format to the Finite Element code of the user’s choice. A simple Finite Element Analysis can also be performed within CAFE using the in-built open source OOFEM software adapted for shipbuilding.

We at SimFWD have developed an effective Workflow wherein model creation, definition of basic entities and initial meshing is carried out in CAFE. Mesh refinement, loading and boundary conditions and the final analysis are carried out in midasNFX.

Finite Element Analysisstudy for the greatest ship structure

Ultimately when it comes to choosing the right pathway to move in your life that is very important task that you need to focus on that process. When you think about some professional task so, that is your senior professional educational is completely depending on you. What type of subject you will select that is up to you only and you take that subject only in which you are very skilled and do well always. But one of the subjects that is quite easy and very interesting that is engineering subject. Engineering is the great and most demanding subjects among the students that incorporate of designs, construction, infrastructures, planning, executing performance are all matter there perfectly.

Your amazing leading career is ahead now as you can go for your great choices by each student while association with this subject there is absolutely opportunity to get best job scopes in future. There are ample engineering subjects such as civil engineer, mechanical engineer, electronic engineer, construction engineer, and many more. Often when the students choose the Finite Element Analysis and start involving in such stream of subject so, that time somehow they are unable to understand the basic or fundamental of the subjects.
