Use case: maritime blasting and ballistics simulation
- Initial situation:
When designing and developing maritime structures and ships, the structural integrity must be reliably ensured against the effects of explosions – for example, from sea mines – as well as local penetrations from torpedoes, shaped charges or KE projectiles.
- EDAG Group solution:
- Design of protection systems
- Assessment of structural integrity and extent of damage at system level
- Benefit for the customer:
- Increased knowledge in the design and protection of ship hulls – particularly with regard to the structural damage to be expected under realistic maritime threat scenarios
Benefit for the customer:
Use Case analysis of the level of protection in the maritime environment
- Initial situation:
For maritime systems and high-value areas of NATO systems, the degree of ballistic protection must be verified in accordance with STANAG 4569 as an acceptance criterion.
- EDAG Group solution:
- Simulation-based analysis of the degree of protection for the automated assessment of the ratio between protected and unprotected areas in the ship's structure
- The analysis is based on real ballistic tests
- Precise identification of ballistic weak points in platform protection
- Benefit for the customer:
Benefit for the customer:
Reducing human uncertainties in the ballistic evaluation of the protection system and the verification of the degree of protection coverage
