Dear MIKE 21 user

DHI has developed an exciting new time-domain simulation

package for studying moored vessel and floating structures,

dynamic motions and responses. We have simply taken the best from two worlds: MIKE by DHI’s MIKE 21 BW (or MIKE

21 Flow Model FM) as the wave/flow simulation engine and WAMIT® from WAMIT Inc. for calculation of the frequency

response functions of the structure. Through an innovative and efficient coupling method we developed WAMSIM.

This tool is not yet part of the MIKE by DHI product suite.

However, already from today you and your clients can take full advantage of this tool through collaboration with DHI’s

experts and specialists.

How?

You take care of the MIKE modelling, and provide DHI with

your results (dfs2/dfsu data files) and information on ves-sels/structures, mooring and fender arrangements, etc.

DHI undertakes the WAMSIM simulation and provides

detailed model results including time series and statistics of motions and mooring lines forces as well as 3D animations.

If you are interested in providing more value to your

customers, ask DHI for an offer!

For more information please contact Henrik Kofoed-Hansen (hkh@dhigroup.com),

Hans Fabricius Hansen (hfh@dhigroup.com) or Simon Brandi Mortensen (sbm@dhigroup.com)

WAMSIM is a unique tool which couples two industry

standards: MIKE by DHI and WAMIT® by MIT.

WAMSIM delivers true time-domain results with high accuracy, which can easily be interpreted by decision makers

Robert Hancock, Manager Infrastructure Planning and Sustainable

Engineering, Port of Brisbane about WAMSIM: “The results were fast-

er, more accurate and allowed us to test more scenarios than physical mod-

elling would allow. The project allowed the Corporation to critically

assess a key strategic direction for the port “.
