Port Bollard Study

Port bollards are critical safety components in any marina or commercial port, designed to withstand immense mooring forces from vessels. A simple linear static analysis is often insufficient to guarantee their real-world performance and safety. To ensure the utmost reliability of our designs, Altamax Engineering employs advanced Finite Element Method (FEM) analysis that accurately simulates the complex interactions at play.

FEM Analysis of Sprocket Wear and Chain Elongation Effects on Tooth Load Distribution

Predicting the stress concentration and premature tooth failure through advanced structural simulation. A structural FEM simulation was carried out to assess the influence of chain elongation and sprocket stiffness on the stress distribution across the sprocket teeth. The analysis focused on identifying how wear-related deformations affect load sharing among teeth during operation. By simulating various
