Naval architects and marine engineers requiring a tool to design marine models
About MultiSurf
MultiSurf is a sophisticated 3D design software by AeroHydro, Inc., tailored specifically for marine design applications. Used widely by naval architects and marine engineers, it allows precise modeling of complex boat, yacht, and ship structures through its extensive support for varied geometric shapes and surfaces. MultiSurf uses a "relational geometry" approach, meaning that changes to one part of a model will automatically adjust related parts, allowing for quick, iterative design refinements. This makes it particularly useful for creating hydrodynamic and structurally optimized designs.

SurfaceWorks
SurfaceWorks by AeroHydro is a freeform surface modeling software designed to integrate with SOLIDWORKS, enhancing it with robust surface editing capabilities ideal for industrial design. It enables associative modeling, allowing modifications in SOLIDWORKS sketches to automatically update dependent SurfaceWorks surfaces and vice versa. This bi-directional associativity supports complex designs where relationships among points, curves, and surfaces are maintained, allowing for seamless adjustments throughout the design process. Originally developed for marine design, SurfaceWorks is now utilized across various industries, including aeronautics and medical devices.
