Maxsurf offers comprehensive capabilities for the design of all types of marine vessels. Create fair hull shapes, comply with stability requirements, minimize power requirements, and ensure crew and passenger comfort in varying sea states. Minimize structural weight while ensuring scantling compliance through initial modeling and stress analysis of beam and plate structures. Maxsurf applications operate from a single parametric 3D model that facilitates smooth communication and coordination among different team members and design activities.
Bentley’s MAXSURF software is used by naval architects worldwide for the design of all types of vessels; including many types of multihulls. MAXSURF software has been used at the forefront of multihull design since the first developments of the high-speed catamaran ferry market in Australia; and has worked in partnership with several leading Australian shipyards to deliver software which addresses some of the important considerations specific to multihull vessel design. The MAXSURF software, operating from a single parametric 3D model, streamlines the process across all phases of the vessel design workflow: from concept prototype, through initial design to detailed design layout. Whatever your application (high-speed ferry, offshore support vessel, semi-submersible, sailing catamaran or SWATH) attend this complimentary webinar to discover how MAXSURF software can be used to develop, analyze and optimize your multihull vessel designs.
