Dassault Systemes and CENIT Launch Advanced Naval Architecture Solution for Integrated Boat Design.CENIT NAVAL ARCHITECT Optimizes Ship and Yacht Design MONACO -- Monaco Yacht Show The Monaco Yacht Show (MYS) is an annual trade show in Monaco, where some of the newest luxury yachts are on display. The four-day event had its 17th anniversary in September, 2007, and features conferences and cocktail parties - basically a place to network and make new contacts. - Dassault Syst[c]mes (DS) (Nasdaq: DASTY; Euronext Paris: #13065, DSY DSY Drum Storage Yard .PA), a world leader in 3D and Product Lifecycle Management (PLM (Product Life cycle Management) A comprehensive information system that coordinates all aspects of a product from initial concept to its eventual retirement. Sometimes called the "digital backbone" of a product, it includes the requirements phase, analysis and design ) solutions, and CENIT AG, a DS CAA Caa See CCC. partner and Value Added Reseller See VAR. (company) value added reseller - (VAR, or "value added retailer") A company which sells something (e.g. computers) made by another company (an OEM) with extra components added (e.g. specialist software). , today announced the launch of CENIT NAVAL ARCHITECT, an add-on product of the CENIT MARINE product family, which integrates weight evolution management, hydrostatic and stability analysis in the CATIA A family of 2D and 3D CAD programs from IBM. CATIA was one of the first CAD programs to provide 3D solid modeling. The program was developed by Dassault Systems, a French aerospace company. solutions for yachts and ships. The new CENIT NAVAL ARCHITECT product and Dassault Syst[c]mes' CATIA provide a breakthrough end-to-end solution that streamlines the boat design and engineering process to fully enable the naval architecture design spiral. "CENIT NAVAL ARCHITECT enables integrated boat design in CATIA, allowing shipyards, marine engineering companies and naval architects to cut down development times dramatically, reduce costs and efficiently optimize areas of ship development like weight management, hydrostatics hydrostatics: see mechanics. hydrostatics Branch of physics that deals with the characteristics of fluids at rest, particularly with the pressure in a fluid or exerted by a fluid (gas or liquid) on an immersed body. and stability," says Francois Mathieu, yacht market development leader, Dassault Syst[c]mes. Naval architects traditionally use disconnected solutions for weight definition, shape modelling, structure and layout drawings, and hydrostatic and stability calculations based on 2D offsets methodology. Combined with CATIA, CENIT NAVAL ARCHITECT offers a powerful innovation platform that integrates the complete process from shapes design to stability and structure calculations for the development of increasingly audacious boat designs. Using MAAT Hydro+ volume-based computation engine, CENIT NAVAL ARCHITECT facilitates advanced hydrostatic and stability calculations with real-time simulations as well as automatic report generation in compliance with classification societies' requirements. "Our new software NAVAL ARCHITECT is an important addition to our wide range of software solutions and thus a significant component for an important industry," stresses Kurt Bengel, member of the board at CENIT. "With the new software, ship builders can now also benefit from the advantages of an integrated solution." Some of the most famous yacht designers, naval architects, small/large yacht shipyards and suppliers across the globe are using Dassault Syst[c]mes solutions based on CATIA. Dassault Syst[c]mes provides yacht professionals from small and large yacht builders to naval architects and subcontractors with packages dedicated to their specific line of business. These solutions address the associated processes with the right styling, hull design integrating hydrostatic calculations, structure, and composite design products, industry methodologies and best practices. CENIT NAVAL ARCHITECT offers a wide variety of CATIA integrated functionalities for the ship and yacht building specific development processes. Dassault Syst[c]mes and CENIT will be present at the Monaco Yacht Show September 24-27, 2008 at booth QP62.
