Cognity Case Studies

Cognity engineering case studies in mechanical design, structural design and detailed finite element analysis (FEA).

  • DNV 2.7-1 / DNV 2.7-3 offshore workbasket, container, skid

    Cognity designs offshore containers, custom baskets and transportation units to the energy industry.

    Designed to DNV 2.7-1 or DNV 2.7-3 for larger custom units, bespoke containers are designed to meet your specific application and include integrated service functions, as required. Containers can be skid based (with or without crash frame), skidless with structural frame, or stressed skin, depending on your application requirements.


  • soil modelling for conductor analysis, pile driving analysis and suction cans

    Drilling conductors, piles and suction cans are used offshore to anchor or fasten structures to the soft sedimentary soils of the seabed. It is crucial to install or drive piles deep enough to ensure that both vertical and lateral loads are reacted into the seabed, otherwise structural movement occurs.

    Soils present their own technical challenges, and can vary in strength from location to location.  Soil shear strengths also vary with depth. Soil has a highly non-linear response, providing only compressive resistance under lateral loads.
