PRINCIPLES FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF A SHIPBUILDING CAD SYSTEM FROM A SINGLE DATA BASE

The authors state that the complete automation of design work in a central design office and of shipyard manufacturing processes is an urgent problem in modern shipbuilding. They contend that the technical and informational links between CAD systems and production management should make it possible to exchange design and technological information in a single database. Their article is devoted to exploring the issues involved, which touch upon organizational relations between central design office subdivisions and the yard. Successful implementation of the concept would reduce the time and work involved in revising documentation, cut production planning time, reduce the percentage of rejects due to discrepancies in design approaches, and cut the time and labor required to actually build a ship.
