Defence

The company is a leading provider of innovative design and analysis solutions to the UK defence industry.

We have direct involvement with a number of UK Ministry of Defence (MoD) Integrated Project Teams (IPTs), leading defence contractors, and tier 2 defence suppliers alike.

By integrating our 3 core skills of advanced 3-dimensional Computer Aided Design (CAD), Finite Element Analysis (FEA), and Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) into one operating environment, we are able to develop, assess and refine innovative design concepts in a timely manner without the need for early destructive testing.

Projectile penetration analysis

The net effect of this virtual interrogation is to (1) mitigate risk throughout the design process, (2) reduce the overall development timescales by eliminating 'non-starters' early on in the development and (3) save money by reducing the overall development time and the amount of destructive testing required.


ANSYS® AutoDYN - Blast resistance and survivability assessment

Our FEA portfolio now extends to include ANSYS® AutoDYN® explosion simulation capability, an invaluable tool for platform survivability assessments or munitions effectiveness studies.

Our contact details are shown below and in the contacts section of this website, alternatively, send an e-mail to solutions@pdl-group.com and an engineer will contact you by return.

	June 2010: PDL awarded a significant contract from the National Renewable Energy Centre (NaREC). PDL engineers to provide advanced Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) engineering analysis support to the NaREC engineering team on the WP3 Numerical Modelling project. PDL and ANSYS CFX engineers will develop a CFD model for NaREC that is capable of characterising the predicted flow within a given subsea terrain and the predicted resultant loads acting upon a proposed tidal turbine design in varying sea state conditions. PDL awarded FMC Kongsberg Subsea A.S. contract. PDL engineers to provide advanced finite element analysis support to the FMC engineering team in Kongsberg (Norway) on the OTIS connector project. PDL win Magnox South Interim Services contract. PDL engineers to provide specialist civil and structural engineering support to the Magnox South S2P2 engineering team at the Hinkley Point A licensed nuclear site in Somerset. Paul Charlton is appointed to the NOF Energy Board. PDL managing director, Paul Charlton, is voted onto the NOF Energy Board as non-executive director at the NOF Energy Annual General Meeting held at Wynyard Hall on the 17th June 2010. May 2010: PDL awarded HERTEL contract. PDL engineers to provide advanced ANSYS AutoDYN blast simulation support to the HERTEL engineering team on the Ballistic Shelter programme. PDL engineers to work alongside the HERTEL-led consortia partners to validate the ability of the proposed shelter design to withstand a number of ballistic threats. PDL awarded a further Halliburton contract. PDL engineers to provide structural engineering support to the Halliburton engineering team on the SPHU programme. Engineers will validate the ability of the current SPHU frame to accommodate an increase in payload and determine the resultant stresses in the SPHU frame during transport, load out and subsea deployment operations. The PDL Quality Management System (QMS) retains a clean sheet. The PDL QMS sails through the BSI Management Systems external audit for a 7th consecutive year with no non-conformities identified, no opportunities for improvement tabled and no observations made. April 2010: PDL awarded NESL contract. PDL engineers to provide advanced structural, seismic and dynamic impact analysis support to the NESL engineering team on the Flask Loading and Maintenance Machine (FLAMM) programme.
