G-loading data issue in pvelite. Help!
Thread Content
The reason is that the equipment’s support points are located above its center of gravity; therefore, PVELITE reported that the calculation method we were using assumed the center of gravity was above the support points, and that this approach might lead to results that are not conservative enough. So, let’s use Gloading instead of seismic parameters! Let’s go! So I quickly found the gloading option; there are long.acceleration, lateral acceleration, and vertical acceleration as well. What the hell, how do I fill it in? National standard level 7, 0.1g, one set – could someone explain this in more detail? I searched online and found that this tool can be used to calculate ship acceleration; it’s simple and effective, so I wanted to learn more about it.
I now just enter 0.1; all three values are... indeed, it requires higher standards compared to using GB for calculations.
