4.5.2 Almlicable Software<br />

The analysis method chosen has to be compatible with the computer<br />

softwares available. Since a wide range of computer software is<br />

available, the analyses method and the software should be chosen<br />

based on structure configuration, applicable environmental loads,<br />

structuralresponseto appliedloading,stressdistributionpatterns<br />

and susceptibilityto fatigue failure.<br />

Stress history and fatigue damage evaluation<br />

While there are special-purpose software programs such as SEALOAD<br />

(Reference 4.24) to generate wave loads and SHIPMOTION (Reference<br />

4.25) to determine motions, these and other software programs are<br />

often a component of larger generalized systems. A large system<br />

will facilitateexecutionof all functionsfromwave load generation<br />
