• We are going to create a simple box shaped model to demonstrate
the load mapping process
• The structural model will include some simple stiffeners to show how
to handle internal elements
• The Steps of the exercise include:
– Create Structural Geometry
– Create Structural Model and Information
– Create Hydrodynamic Geometry
– Create Hydrodynamic Model and Information
– Include the Hydrodynamic loading to Structural model (load mapping)

be included in the solution. Note
that if static hydrostatic loading is
required then choose Hydrostatic

• Solve
– The subsequent hydrodynamic model requires an accurate definition of the
mass inertia information for the model.
– In the absence of better data this can be extracted from the structural model
– In order to obtain this a Solve must be instigated.
– Can ignore any warnings and errors related to solution since results from this
analysis are not used, we are only interested in the mass information
