...Rajko Rubeša; Marko Hadjina; Tin Matulja; Nikša Fafandjel _ Decision-makers in shipyards face the problem of determining the design cost concerning the information level contained in drawing and how it influences the shipbuilding process efficiency. Shipyards have their approach and shipbuilding...

...Salim Tamer; Baris Barlas; Sefer A. Gunbeyaz; Rafet E. Kurt; Sukru Eren _ A shipyard located in Yalova, Turkey, with an annual processing capacity of 50,000 tons of steel, is studied to improve the layout to increase the production efficiency. The material and personnel traffic inside the shipyard...

...Marco Semini; Per Olaf Brett; Jan Ola Strandhagen; Jørn Vatn To save costs and build competitiveness, Norwegian shipyards usually offshore some of the processes required to produce a ship, especially steel-related tasks, i.e., they have them carried out in a country with lower factor costs...

...Huiqiang Shen; Yonggil Lee; Yong-kuk Jeong; Jong Hun Woo The hull block erection network process, which is performed during the master production planning stage of the shipyard, is frequently delayed because of limited resources, workspace, and block preparation ratio. In this study, a study...

.... Consideration is given to a paradigm shift consisting of a ship envelope constructed by a primarily commercial shipbuilder, which is then transferred to a naval shipyard integrator for completion, including insertion of those modules which are purely naval mission-oriented. In the context of such consideration...

...Kwangkook Lee; Jong Gye Shin Production management in shipyards is one of the most significant activities impacting productivity. On-site managers and production planners still do not have sufficient production information to enable on-site scheduling because of restricted information sharing among...

... be able to fully express the relationships between production factors and production management indicators. For this purpose, computational shipyard dynamics was proposed by Kim et al. in the Journal of Ship Production and Design (2018). This methodology includes input variables, output variables, and key...

... production time and, consequently, the costs associated with it. In parallel, this study analyzes the facilities of the shipyard, proposing changes in its workshops and identifying new business lines to improve the strategic situation of the organization. 1. Introduction Historically, European shipyards have...

...Shun Wang; Ji Wang; Yujun Liu; Rui Li; Xiao Liu Nowadays in most shipyards, line heating techniques are widely used in the forming process of hull plates. The precision and efficiency of the process are greatly influenced by the determination of technical parameters, including heating length...

..., it is difficult to handle effectively such big data with the existing methodology for data storage and processing. Therefore, big data technology needs to be applied to the systems of shipyards, such as the product lifecycle management system. On the other hand, the construction of an offshore structure requires...

... and finally painting, all separate of each other. Even though most shipyards apply some degree of integration of all trades during vessel construction, much work could still be better integrated. This article analyzes and maps the present IHOP construction of a typical shipbuilding erection block in a real...

...Youngmin Kim; Jong Hun Woo; Yong-Kuk Jeong; Jong Gye Shin Early simulations focused mainly on virtualizing the shipyard itself and the approach in terms of production management that focuses on improving productivity was hardly sufficient. For systematically approaching shipyard production problems...

...Damir Kolich; Richard L. Storch; Niksa Fafandjel The main shipbuilding assembly processes greatly influence the flow of interim products in a newbuilding shipyard. The panel assembly line is a major process located upstream of all the other shipyard assembly processes. In a previous paper...

...Paul W. Stott Commercial shipbuilding in the 21 st century is dominated by large suppliers, constructing series' of ships in highly efficient shipyards. The industry would be unrecognizable to shipbuilders from a century ago and this raises the question as to when the modern form developed. Much...

...Yong-Kuk Jeong; Philippe Lee; Jong Hun Woo In recent years, shipyards have conducted various studies to accurately investigate their production capacities and improve the accuracy of their production plans. Nevertheless, frequent delays in schedules inevitably occur at production sites. Simulation...

...Damir Kolich; Richard L. Storch; Niksa Fafandjel The core competence of any medium-to-large sized shipyard includes the panel assembly line. Ship panels are the basic building blocks of well over 60% of the interim products of typical commercial ships. Therefore the improvement of the panel...

.... Many small and medium shipyards lack large shipbuilding facilities such as docks. Therefore, they are facing great difficulty in switching to ship maintenance and repair business. The authors designed a practical and economical cargo transport system that is suitable for transporting large and heavy...

.... It should be noted that the scope of this study is limited to constructions processes in a shipyard even though the shipbuilding industry may encompass a broader range of industrial sectors such as steel production and transport. Adopting Model for Energy Supply Strategy Alternatives and their General...

... a single shipyard. It was analyzed and presented in both tabular and graphical forms to show the relationship between the scope of work and the age, size, and type of ships. The physical size of a ship has a great influence on the hull blasting and painting repairing works irrespective of design parameters...
