Study on Testing System of CAE Software for Ship Structural Analysis

CAE software for ship structural analysis includes not only the traditional structure finite element simulation analysis, but also the ship specific performance simulation analysis, involving complex mathematics, mechanics knowledge and ship industry expert knowledge, with a wide range of coverage and easy errors. The existing traditional software testing technology and industrial software testing system are not targeted, the content is not rich and specific enough, and they can't fully meet the testing needs of CAE software for ship structural analysis. In order to solve the problem, based on the existing research on the testing technology and testing system of CAE software for ship structural analysis, a quality assessment testing system including functionality, performance, interface, usability, reliability, compatibility and autonomous controllability is proposed. At the same time, testing techniques such as testing process, method and tools are introduced. It provides an effective support for the quality test of CAE software for ship structural analysis, and has been well applied in the independently developed SAM software test.
