The Challenge
Examine the physical phenomena surrounding the setting of pilings for offshore fixed jacket, and to develop products that ensure the proper piling of and long performance life for these massive marine structures.
The Solution
Add SOLIDWORKS Simulation Professional analysis and SOLIDWORKS Simulation Premium nonlinear analysis software to the company’s SOLIDWORKS design solution.
“Elastomer simulation tools are critically important for advancing Pronal’s capabilities. Our experience in offshore development demonstrates just how effectively Pronal can use SOLIDWORKS Simulation Premium software to develop better products and grow the company globally.”
