※Product Overview※

Non-linear Collapse Analysis Software

Determine structural operating limits of offshore structures with SACS Collapse. Reduce risk of structural failure due to extreme loads from environmental conditions or accidental events with full plastic analysis for initial, recertification, and safety case design. Expedite the workflow to conduct full plastic collapse analysis of a structure using the standard SACS analysis input data. Improve data integrity though full integration with SACS suites that requires no new modeling.

 
Determine an accurate collapse design outcome for offshore structures with the easy-to-use non-linear finite element analysis in SACS Collapse. You can:
 
 • Easily identify failure mechanisms from events including pushover, ship impact, dropped object, and blast loading
 • Save time and reduce errors by modeling both the structure and foundation in one environment
 • Improve accuracy of structure performance prediction from dynamic effects through coupling with SACS Dynamic Response module

SACS Collapse is available as an add-on module for any of the SACS Offshore Structure suites.

CAPABILITIES

Automate offshore structural workflows
Manage multiple analyses with customizable templates working from a common structural model. Automatically pass data from one analysis step to another, incorporating industry-standard methodologies. Simplify management of large, complex models for design exploration with automated workflows.

Perform multi-linear elasto-plastic analysis
Automate accurate prediction of non-linear structural behavior and large deflection elasto-plastic response of platform and pile structures. Specify analysis to account for tubular connection flexibility. Define non-linear support elements.

Perform offshore collapse analysis
Perform a full plastic analysis of any offshore structure including effects from impulse and time-based loading. Visualize the failure progression, gradual plastification, and collapse mechanism with graphically displayed results.
