Abstract

With the rapid advancement of new-generation information technology, the virtual–real fusion interaction has increasingly become a crucial technique for structural analysis to determine the strength envelope of hulls. A high-precision assembly of the experimental devices in a virtual environment is vital. A virtual assembly method for a structural virtual–real fusion test based on the oriented bounding box (OBB) algorithm, the Devillers and Guigue algorithm, and differential triangle facets algorithm are proposed in this paper. The experiment of the connector in a typical offshore floating platform is performed as a case, which indicates that the virtual assembly method proposed in this paper enables the assessment of assembly virtually prior to the actual experiment, and the assembly accuracy can reach 0.01 mm. The digitalization and virtual–real fusion interaction for the mechanical experiment of hulls are advanced to ensure efficiency, safety, and economy.
