Finite Element Analysis - Structual Analysis
Sandia National Laboratories, Transportation Programs


Finite element analysis technology was used to determine a ship and package structural response to a ship-to-ship collision. The package (in yellow) gets pushed though the ship hull and drops into the sea. RESULTS: there would be no release of material from the package.
