The National Shipbuilding Research Program. 1997 Ship Production Symposium, Paper Number 28: A Prototype Object-Oriented CAD System for Shipbuilding

Abstract

This paper reports on the on-going development of an object-oriented CAD system at the Advanced Computer Laboratory for Shipbuilding at the University of New Orleans. It describes: the reasons for object-oriented (yard specific) development; the computer-aided software development environment; the developing class structure of the ship structures design application; and the planned developments within the CAD system and integration of packages to support visualization, planning and enterprise management and electronic data interchange.
