Description

OpenWindPower, a software developed by Bentley Systems, specializes in the analysis of offshore wind turbines and supports both fixed foundation and floating platform initiatives. This innovative tool allows users to examine various design options, forecast operational performance, and create safe, cost-efficient structures for offshore wind farms. For projects with fixed foundations, OpenWindPower delivers extensive analysis and design features tailored to offshore wind turbine foundation structures, effectively addressing the impacts of waves, winds, and mechanical loads from turbines to evaluate both fatigue and extreme conditions on the substructure and the nonlinear soil foundation. In the case of floating platform projects, the software provides sophisticated modeling features that enable the creation of intricate 3D hydrodynamic and structural models, which endure the forces from waves, currents, winds, and mechanical turbine loads. Additionally, this capability allows for time-domain simulations that accurately calculate sea pressures and inertial forces, ensuring a comprehensive structural analysis for engineers working in the offshore wind sector. The tools provided by OpenWindPower ultimately enhance the design process, allowing for more resilient and efficient offshore wind energy solutions.

Description

Simpack is a versatile multibody system simulation (MBS) software that allows engineers and analysts to model and simulate the complex non-linear movements of various mechanical and mechatronic systems. This tool empowers users to create and analyze virtual 3D representations, facilitating the prediction and visualization of dynamic behaviors, along with associated forces and stresses. While primarily utilized in sectors such as automotive, engine, HIL/SIL/MIL, power transmission, railway, and wind energy, its applications extend across all fields of mechanical engineering. Notably, Simpack excels in conducting high-frequency transient analyses, including those in the acoustic range, making it a valuable asset for engineers. Originally designed to address intricate non-linear models featuring flexible bodies and severe shock interactions, Simpack continues to evolve to meet the demands of modern engineering challenges. Its adaptability ensures that a wide array of engineering problems can be effectively tackled using this advanced simulation tool.
