COMPUTER AIDED INFORMATION ACQUISITION SYSTEM OF DESIGN AND MANUFACTURING IN SHIPBUILDING

Japanese shipyards have long recognised the need for computer integrated manufacturing systems in shipbuilding. the Japan Shipbuilding Research Association organised a feasibility study of computer integrated design and manufacturing in 1987 in order to integrate CAD/CAM systems product modelling and expert systems were treated as the most important themes in the project. The aim of this paper is to propose one example of a project model of a ship which will be as flexible as possible since it is to be used at the design stage and the manufacturing stage. An object-oriented concept is used for the ship model representation.
