LUSAS LNG Tank Analysis and
Design System

The LUSAS LNG Tank Analysis
and Design System allows engineers to automatically create a range of
2D and 3D finite element models of full containment circular tanks
from user-defined parameters. From these models, a range of analyses
can be performed, and design checks can be optionally carried out for
specified load combinations.

Why
use the LUSAS LNG Tank System?

• Built on 20 years of experience in the LNG
  market.
• Automated model
  building with comprehensive checks for various events and loading
  scenarios.
• Model construction
  stages including pre-stressing, and evaluate
  thermal effects during operation.
• Carry out concrete wall and
  seismic checks to codes of practice.
• Customise
  the software to suit your needs using the LUSAS Programmable
  Interface.
• LUSAS is a
  long-established and trusted provider to industry leaders, and
