Strength, fatigue and vibration, from the whole hull to one foundation
We model marine vessels for local and global strength, fatigue and vibration, and design the supports and foundations for equipment on board.
- Global and local strengthStrength checks of the hull and structure, for the whole vessel and the details
- FatigueFatigue analysis of the structure and its connections
- VibrationVibration studies of the structure and onboard equipment
- Equipment foundationsSupport and foundation design for onboard equipment
- Mooring and connectionsMooring and connection analysis for vessels and floating units
Hydrostatics, stability and design across the shipbuilding process
From basic to detailed design, we optimise space and performance, calculate the centres of gravity and buoyancy, and check stability to international rules and standards.
- HydrostaticsCentre of gravity and centre of buoyancy calculations
- StabilityStability control and analysis to international rules, standards and guidelines
- Basic and detailed designDesign support across the shipbuilding process
- Space optimisationLayouts that make the best use of the space on board
- Vessel performancePerformance checks of the hull form and design
Foundations, hull transport and moorings we have engineered
These jobs sit on our jack-up and subsea project pages, but the engineering is the same work this page describes.
New emergency generator room
Structural modification of an accommodation unit to replace a D343 generator with a CAT 3412, checked on the proposed scantlings.
Hull transportation and sea-fastening design
We analysed the hull under tow inertia loads, designed the sea fasteners and supplied detailed fabrication drawings.
Mooring buoy systems at SESA, Goa
Design analysis of four mooring buoy configurations, including anchors, buoys, chain, connecting hardware and hawsers.
More in the project library. 27 projects for clients including ONGC, IOC, L&T and ABAN Offshore.

What ship owners and yards ask us
What marine engineering services do you offer?
Ship structural analysis (strength, fatigue and vibration), equipment foundations and supports, mooring and connection analysis, hydrostatics and stability, and basic and detailed ship design.
Which software do you use for marine work?
ANSYS for structural analysis, MAXSURF for hull modelling, hydrostatics and stability, and AutoCAD for drawings.
Do you carry out stability calculations?
Yes. We calculate the centre of gravity and centre of buoyancy and analyse stability to international rules, standards and guidelines.
Can you design foundations for new equipment on board?
Yes. Recent work includes a new emergency generator room for a CAT 3412 generator, a compressor platform and a 150 MT SMIT bracket relocation.
Do you work on coastal vessels as well as seagoing ones?
Yes. We design and analyse both operating and coastal marine assets.
Can you train our engineers in MAXSURF?
Yes. Aryatech is an authorized Bentley channel partner for MAXSURF in India and the Middle East, and runs MAXSURF training courses.
Modifying a vessel or designing a new one?
Send us the drawings and what you plan to change. An engineer will come back with questions and a scope.
