Modelling for Ship Design and Production

Abstract

The flexible operating and changing of the complex one-of-a-kind shipbuilding environment has to be based on adequate concepts and instruments to handle the related controlling, planning and implementation tasks. Product modeling defines the physical and application-driven product-related information. It is of basic importance to support this environment, especially the concurrent engineering functions, during the whole product life-cycle. Process modeling supports the implementation and operation of complex CIM (Computer Integrated Manufacturing) oriented processes. In this paper, some modeling applications within European shipbuilding R&D (research and development) projects will be highlighted from the viewpoint of an integrated product and process modeling approach. The following projects will be referenced: NEUTRABAS (Neutral Database for Complex Multifunctional Systems) - ROCOCO (Real Time Monitoring and Control of Construction Site Manufacturing) - MARIN-ABC (Marine Industry Applications of Broadband Communication)
