Finite Element Studies

Finite Elements Method studies with FEMAP

A part of transport engineering where HMC specialized itself in is Finite Element Method studies. HMC is one of a very limited amount of companies who has a broad experience with FEMAP software and NASTRAN solver for finite element analyses. HMC’s Marine Services department has specialists trained to perform these studies on complicated objects.
