Despite the ever increasing performance of the computing hardware, a detailed structural analysis of a ship may still take relatively long time. Especially if the FE-analysis is used for getting feedback to the actual design process, the performance issues have a crucial role. Assessment of the effects of an underwater explosion is an example of a case for which an alternative calculation procedure could be needed. This paper describes an approach using a reduced beam model, aiming at fast and robust structural analysis with feasible performance to accommodate global assessments requiring a model of the whole vessel. A central part of the described method is the utilization of a modern general purpose ship product model as the platform and the source of information used in the FE-analysis. Another noticeable feature of this approach is that the beam model generation is automated to enable real and practical integration of the analysis with the design process.
