The National Shipbuilding Program, Proceedings of the IREAPS Technical Symposium, Paper No. 9: HULSTRX: A U.S. Navy Structural Design Model

Abstract

The concepts and status of the HULSTRX development along with a discussion of its utility in the rapidly changing U.S. Navy ship design environment are presented. HULSTRX provides for definition of ship structure at preliminary and contract design levels in terms of absolute geometric data and relational component data. Relational structural component definitions allow for quick design changes, and absolute geometric description of the hull surface can be independently defined. Application routines will enable designers to efficiently produce design drawings, various structural and geometric analyses, and interface with design or product models of other systems.
