A Study on IT Solution for Ship Design Based on Virtual Ship Concept

摘要

An IT solution is the cutting edge technology in shipbuilding industrytoday. Many shipbuilders have implemented the virtual ship designconcepts using 3D CAD system. It will be remarkable if the prospectship quotation can be estimated using this virtually designed ship.Accurate quotation is very crucial milestone of the shipyards to succeedcommercially. This paper describes a methodology that can be adoptedto retrieve all necessary realistic data needed to estimate the realisticquotation of manufacturing a ship. The research will also open thedoors for future research activities such as complete-automation forquotation, realistic manufacturing scheduler and inventory managementof shipbuilding based on the virtual ship.
