Smart Fenders Explained – Reaction & Structural Impact Alarm BIM monitors compression displacements of all fender elastomers and interpolates their real time reaction forces using their C-RE curve Instantaneous Berthing Impact Load RT = total fender reaction force of all fender elastomers compressed by the berthing ship If RT reaches or frequently approaches preset berth structural limit, Smart Fender will trigger Berth Structural Load Alarm

Smart Fenders Explained – Data Based Fender Design Optimize Fender Components Using Data Approach

Smart Fenders Explained – Data Based Fender Design Optimize Fender Components Using Data Approach • Fender Elastomer • Shear Chain / Weight Chain / Tension Chain • Fender Frontal Structure • ETC Preemptive Fender Design Optimization Fender Side Motion (YMotion Axis ) Historical Data: Data: Compression (X Axis) Historcal • Prevent Fender System Permanent Damage Easily determining if a fenderissystem chain Berthing Impact Distribution unevenneeds alongshear the berth. • Prevent Damage to Ship and Dock Structures Due to on one side, both sides, or none at all. Therefore it is clearly unreasonable to distribute fender Insufficient Fender Design. asset evenly.

Smart Fenders Explained – Imminent Failure Warning By tracking long term trend of fender

Smart Fenders Explained – Imminent Failure Warning By tracking long term trend of fender static posture and general compression range, Smart Fender can predict fender failure when fender deterioration reaches critical level. This allows preemptive preventive maintenance to be preformed at chosen time frame, to avoid costly adverse influence to terminal operation due to unexpected fender maintenance
