Our Core Capability: Ship Helicopter Analysis
Our primary focus is providing engineering analysis of ship helicopter operations. We provide operational limits analysis, ship motion analysis, handling qualities analysis, simulation, optimisation and mathematical modelling for both defence and commercial customers.
The continued enhancement and application of the OnDeck helicopter-ship interface simulation program forms the basis of our capabilities. Our expertise has enabled us to be selected as a preferred supplier of helicopter-ship analysis services, procurement advice and risk assessment to various Australian Defence agencies, foreign navies and commercial organisations.
