ANSYS® AQWA™ software is an engineering analysis suite of tools for the investigation of the effects of wave, wind and current on floating and fixed offshore and marine structures, including spars, floating production storage and offloading (FPSO) systems, semi-submersibles, tension leg platforms (TLPs), ships, renewable energy systems and breakwater design. Projects today require that structure design and analysis be performed efficiently in terms of time and cost. The powerful range of modeling and analysis capabilities enables the rapid assessment of many design alternatives, in particular early in a project, significantly reducing overall project costs and timescales.
