3D Performance Simulation of Breakwater and Gangway Structures Using Computational Fluid Dynamics and Finite Element Analysis

Seaco Marine Inc制造定制的商业和住宅码头系统和码头套件。该公司 ** 的目标是不断开发和研究新的和创新的产品，是功能和 ** 结构可靠，以及环保意识。在过去的二十五年里，该公司一直在设计和建造码头，专注于产品改进，以便能够提供从码头和舷梯到浮子和配件的各种海洋产品。在寻求提供 ** 增强系统的过程中，他们研究了不同的材料和接头设计，并取得了理想的结果，即 ** 了解环境因素，以生产适合各种情况的定制码头解决方案。**该公司致力于为客户提供可靠耐用的系统，同时最大限度地减少 ** 对环境的影响。最近，Seaco Marine已经开始为一个新的应用开发防波堤系统。可提供 ** 当前设计的3D模型，需要进行动态分析，以了解活荷载和静荷载 ** 的影响，包括盛行风引起的波浪影响、过往船只的潜在尾流以及水位的季节性变化。模拟软件能够模拟波浪消散，考虑到众多因素，将允许公司最终确定设计。对于防波堤，设计优化不仅取决于结构荷载，而且取决于对流体动力流动的响应。此外，还出现了需要测量80英尺长的舷梯的应用。这一长度超过了目前 ** 经过验证的设计，需要对结构完整性进行评估和预测。Seaco选择与 ** 红河学院航空航天与制造技术访问中心（TACAM）团队合作，分析 ** 和研究1）使用 ** 计算流体动力学（CFD）模拟优化概念防波堤设计的各种流体流动参数，以及2）优化

Seaco Marine Inc. manufactures custom commercial and residential dock systems and dock kits. The company**aims at continually developing and investigating new and innovative products that are functional and**structurally dependable as well as being environmentally conscious. The company has been designing and**building docks over the past twenty-five years with a focus on product improvement such that they are able to**offer a wide array of marine products from docks and gangways to floats and accessories. In a quest to provide**enhanced systems, they have investigated different materials and joint designs with the desirable outcome of**understanding environmental factors to produce custom dock solutions appropriate for individual situations.**The company is committed to providing its customers with reliable and durable systems while minimizing**environmental impact.**Recently, Seaco Marine has begun developing a Breakwater system for a new application. 3D models of the**current design are available and a dynamic analysis is required to understand the effect of live and dead**loading, including impact of waves caused by prevailing winds, potential wake from passing watercraft and**seasonal changes in water level. Simulation software capable of modelling wave dissipation taking a multitude**of factors into consideration will allow for the company to finalize a design. For a breakwater, design**optimization is dependent not only on structural load, but also on response to dynamic fluid flow. In addition,**an application requiring a gangway measuring 80 feet in length has also arisen. This length exceeds currently**proven designs and requires evaluation and prediction of structural integrity. Seaco has opted to partner with**Red River College's Technology Access Centre for Aerospace and Manufacturing (TACAM) team to analyze**and study 1) various fluid flow parameters for design optimization of the concept breakwater using**computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation and 2) static and dynamic loading for optimization of the
