Abstract:FEA is becoming a necessary tool for marine structure design, but there are some shortcomings in its application. In this paper, we introduce the concept of knowledge engineering on the basis of parametric modeling, character modeling and object-oriented technology, and present a method of highly-efficient FEA modeling for complicated marine structure. The approach deals with not only rapid modeling but also the connection between FEA model and real structure, which means the area need strengthening can be quickly located directly from FEA results. A prototype system was built based on VB, ANSYS and AutoCAD to demonstrate and confirm the validity of the concept.
