Casing Design (Triaxial Stress Analysis)

Oliasoft WellDesign contains various engines for calculating strains and stresses. This is used for what is commonly known as "triaxial stress analysis".

The following chart visualize the various components in this machinery

General calculation engines (generators)

3 main calculation engines are responsible for calculating stresses, in addition to various load case generators. Custom loads bypass the service load generator (4B) and is entered straight into the stress generator (5).
