MONOSC

MonoSC is intended to design Monohull Surface Combatants in the range of between 1000 and 12,000 tons. MonoSC includes an Auxiliary Systems Module that provides capabilities to predict system characteristics, demands and weights for a range of different types of auxiliary systems typically found in surface combatants. For weights not developed from analytical methods in Deckhouse, Hull Structure, Auxiliary Systems, and Machinery, the MonoSC Weight Module uses empirical algorithms based on the large data base of existing surface combatant designs. MonoSC also includes a limited Seakeeping Module.

Design of Ship Hull Structures

Design of Ship Hull Structures - Okumoto, et.al (2009)


The ship design is divided generally into four parts, hull form design, arrangement design, hull structure design, and fitting design (hull fitting and machinery fitting).
The design of merchant ships starts with the owner’s requirements such as kind and volume of cargo, transportation route and time generally. Sometimes the owner has a special requirement such as no bulkhead in hold.
Based on the above requirements a general arrangement plan is roughly designed and the studies are to be done from stability, strength, operation, and habitability viewpoints. Thus the general arrangement plan is finally decided with correction if necessary. Referring the lines plan, which shows the hull form, and the general arrangement plan, in the hull structure design the size, position, and materials of the structural members are decided, including the fabrication and assembly methods.
The most important duty of the hull structure design is to supply a strong enough hull structure against the internal and external loads. The text books or hand books of hull strength are helpful to the hull structure designer. However these books are generally written from the viewpoint of the strength theory and seem not to be sufficient from the design viewpoint.
The authors are hull structure designers in four generations, from the developing era of the structural design by large increase of the ship size and increase of ship production to establishing era of the design technology using computer; CAD and CAE. In this book the experiences of the authors in the above generations are condensed from the design viewpoint. Hence this book includes not only basic theory but also practical design matter. The authors are convinced that this book will be strong weapon for designers to design the hull structure as well as for students to understand the hull structure design in the world.

GRC sells software for submarines

GRC, a Hants-based subsidiary of Qinetiq, has secured a contract to provide Paramarine Version 5 ship design software and its onboard variant Seagoing for Submarines to the government of Canada.

The Canadian Navy will use the onboard software to manage the stability of its Victoria Class submarines and assist in emergency response situations. The simultaneous purchase of Paramarine Version 5 will allow Canada to monitor the stability characteristics of the submarines through their operational life.
This contract, worth over £60k, follows a previous one awarded in October 2007 worth over £75k to develop a stability and structural model of the Victoria Class Submarines.
The Paramarine submarine and surface ship design software was recently released at Version 5 and is accompanied by its sister product ‘Seagoing Paramarine’ software. The next release of Paramarine, in spring 2008, will include further enhancements including Advanced Hull Generation Technology and an interface to Microsoft Excel.

Advance Surface Ship and Submarine Evaluation Tool (ASSET)





Conceptual Development Capability




Advance Surface Ship and Submarine Evaluation Tool (ASSET)



The Advanced Surface Ship and Submarine Evaluation Tool (ASSET) is the US Navy’s primary tool for developing early stage ship designs and determining the impact of new technologies on future Navy designs. ASSET is a family of ship design synthesis programs with a common windows interface, incorporating over 20 years of US Navy design experience. Extensive help and program documentation is included to aid the naval architect in the efficient and effective use of the tool.



ASSET integrates all of the required engineering disciplines to predict the total ship physical and performance characteristics. The design is developed with sufficient fidelity so that the total ship implications of subsystem level design and technology decisions are evident. These decisions and the associated input data are based upon the given mission requirements.



NSWC CD provides the capability to quickly determine a quality ship design based on:







Technology assessments

ROM, concept, feasibility designs

Analysis of Alternatives studies

Design studies where the ship characteristics or performance are an issue

Initial product data models for detailed design and analysis by commercial CAD and other US Navy tools



ASSET includes the capability to connect with any other Windows COM compliant tool to facilitate exchanging data and commands. A primary use of this expanded API is prototyping new design processes in an Excel spreadsheet based application linking to ASSET as the ship design engine. This capability has recently been used to prototype the design of trimarans using the monohull version of ASSET. Recently, this capability has also facilitated use of probabilistic design and analysis techniques, such as Design of Experiments, especially in the early stages of Analysis of Alternatives programs. ASSET provides the capability to exchange product model data with design analysis and CAD applications through its integration with the LEAPS environment.









New design and technology options are added when sufficient definition exists. The designer must have the flexibility to address new design and technology options before a complete definition exists. ASSET facilitates this by allowing the naval architect to insert any new technology into a design by defining its impacts upon the ship in the following areas: weights and centers, required arrangeable areas, electric loads, efficiencies, manning.

what do you know about ....

what do you know about ALIGNMENT?

this concept was capable to usedon many works like as shaft aligment,structure alignment and so over.

but in the naval architecture,the important mind is used the real methode for gun alignment.
gun alignment need tu align some spacial porpose:
1-sensor alignment
2-structure alignment
3-gunmount alignment
4-heading alignment
plus to above concept we need tu integrated all of them with the FC machine.

on the recent days,itry to illustrute some of my memorials.

ABSTRACT
There is a critical need for a human factors input whenever technology and people
interact. When systems are functioning well, few seem to appreciate that this smooth
operation is largely due to the prior thought and effort that has gone into optimizing the
human factors element; when disaster strikes, however, there is a sudden demand for
immediate rectification. As the ship design evolves and crew sizes diminish, even greater
emphasis should be placed upon the man/machine interaction in order to ensure safety
and efficiency during both routine and emergency operations. Severe ship motions limit
the human ability to operate command and control and communication systems,
navigate, perform routine maintenance and prepare food. In an emergency, such
operations as refueling at sea and damage control can be severely hampered. The
human being is susceptible to degraded performance in a number of ways. There are the
purely physical limitations on both gross and fine motor skills imposed by the adverse
effects of heavy seas. The former physical limitations include standing, walking, and
carrying out operational and maintenance tasks that include major whole-body
movements required to perform these types of operations. Fine motor skills include such
fine movements as delicate control adjustments and computer operations. Knowledge of
the sea/hull interaction and its potentially deleterious effect on the physical activities of
crewmembers can provide valuable information for improved ship and equipment design
as well as establishing guidelines for efficient heavy weather operations. In addition,
ship motion can cause significant mental degradation leading to overall performance
decrement and increased potential for injury. Motion sickness is an example of this type
of malady. Seasickness is the most common cause of motion sickness and can have a
profoundly adverse effect on human performance. There is also the sopite syndrome, a
human response to provocative motion characterized by drowsiness and mood changes.
It is not yet clear whether this is due to boredom, inactivity and loss of concentration or
the result of the effects of provocative motion. Whatever, this soporific response can lead
to inefficiency and accident proneness, that is not so readily identifiable by the sufferer
or a supervisor. These motion responses are highly relevant to the RVOC research ship
situation. Not only because of the plans to reduce the number of crewmembers, but also
because a number of the research or academic team members may have little or no
recent experience at sea, particularly in heavy weather. Attention to onboard habitability
issues and fostering a high level of morale among crewmembers are also very important
factors in support of crew retention, particularly in modern ships with smaller numbers
of crewmembers. The author will address these issues and make recommendations to
improve the incorporation of the human element in future ships.

INTEGRATING PERSONNEL MOVEMENT SIMULATION INTO PRELIMINARY SHIP
DESIGN


D Andrews, L Casarosa and R Pawling, University College London, UK
E Galea, S Deere and P Lawrence, University of Greenwich, UK


SUMMARY
Traditionally, when designing a ship the driving issues are seen to be powering, stability, strength and seakeeping.
Issues related to ship operations and evolutions are investigated later in the design process, within the constraint of a
fixed layout. This can result in operational inefficiencies and limitations, excessive crew numbers and potentially
hazardous situations.
This paper summarises work by University College London and the University of Greenwich prior to the completion of
a three year EPSRC funded research project to integrate the simulation of personnel movement into early stage ship
design. This integration is intended to facilitate the assessment of onboard operations while the design is still highly
amenable to change.
The project brings together the University of Greenwich developed maritimeEXODUS personnel movement simulation
software and the SURFCON implementation of the Design Building Block approach to early stage ship design, which
originated with the UCL Ship Design Research team and has been implemented within the PARAMARINE ship design
system produced by Graphics Research Corporation. Central to the success of this project is the definition of a suitable
series of Performance Measures (PM) which can be used to assess the human performance of the design in different
operational scenarios.
The paper outlines the progress made on deriving the PM from human dynamics criteria measured in simulations and
their incorporation into a Human Performance Metric (HPM) for analysis. It describes the production of a series of
SURFCON ship designs, based on the Royal Navy’s Type 22 Batch 3 frigate, and their analysis using the
PARAMARINE and maritimeEXODUS software. Conclusions on the work to date and for the remainder of the project
are presented addressing the integration of personnel movement simulation into the preliminary ship design process.
