Program development

Although the functions of analysis programs are improving day by day, when it comes to design review of specific structures, there are areas where a lot of time and effort can be saved through program development depending on the business characteristics or quality standards of each company.

LUSAS is a program developer with analysis and practical experience in LNG storage tanks, and develops and provides programs tailored to the needs of customers.

LPI (LUSAS Programmable Interface)

LUSAS uses a programming interface that uses languages ​​such as Visual Basic, Java Script, and Python, so the entire process of using LUSAS to create a model, extract the results, and create an image, text, word, or Excel report is possible. It can be implemented as a program.

Utilization of developed programs

1. Construction company/designer

It is developed as an additional function to be used with LUSAS, and can be used by adding a customized menu to LUSAS.

2. Program developer

As a structural analysis program, you can develop and sell a program that utilizes LUSAS’ Pre/Post Processor and Solver.

  • Independent program development

    Since LUSAS can be controlled using the MFC interface, an independent program that utilizes LUSAS as if it were a single module can be developed and sold.
  • LUSAS module development

    Develop and sell modeling/design review modules that can be used within LUSAS

development case

  • Development for automatic modeling of Membrane Tank System for KOGAS, 2018

Korea Gas Corporation improves research performance efficiency on various parameters by automating the modeling and result extraction process required for LNG membrane storage tank research.

  • Section Optimization Project with LUSAS Tank System for POSCO, 2019

POSCO E&C conducts research on various parameters by automating the modeling and result extraction processes required for cross-sectional optimization of LNG storage tanks.

  • Design Report transformation for POSCO format, POSCO, 2019

The resulting output extracted from the LUSAS LNG System is converted into an output in the format required by POSCO E&C, linking it with the company’s own design review process.

  • Design Report transformation for KGT format, KGT, 2020

Linked with the internal design review process by converting the result output extracted from the LUSAS LNG System into an output in the form required by Korea Gas Technology Corporation.

  • GS System Dongbari, GS Construction

LUSAS is used as a structural analysis solver in the system structural analysis and drawing automation system.

Development example

1. Automatic modeling of Membrane Tanks for KOGAS

By adding a menu for KOGAS to the LUSAS menu, we have automated the structural analysis modeling process related to LNG membrane tanks.

Development direction overview
Blast Analysis modeling automation
3D solid modeling automation

2. Section optimization for Dome structure for Samsung

A menu for Samsung E&C was added to the LUSAS menu to automate analysis modeling of various types of dome structures, and cross-sectional optimization was implemented according to the design review results.

Dialog window for each structure type
Automated Interpretation Modeling
