A Modular Design Methodology for OSV Accommodation AreasKawser, Zahid A.S.M. January 2012 (has links)
Offshore shipbuilding industry is known for its highly customized products, which are in most cases tailor-made for specific missions. Being a traditionally conservative industry, it follows conventional design practices. Because of the urge to quickly respond to changing market situations and the need for a structured method to reuse design knowledge across different projects, modern design methodologies like modularization are of considerable interest in this industry. To implement modular thinking, it has to overcome many challenges such as non-functional engineering description of design, scaling, clustering, logistical issues, structural complexities etc. Different modular methodologies can be adopted to establish a modular product platform. Modular Function Deployment (MFDTM) is a popular theory of modularization with five distinct steps to identify the objects that should be modularized and optimize them for the whole manufacturing system. Application of MFDTM method reveals that among various spaces inside the accommodation of an OSV, crew single, crew double and officer’s cabins are the most appropriate ones to be modularized.Based on the output of MFDTM method and the vessel database from System Based Ship Design (SBSD) approach for OSVs, a decision support framework has been developed to assist the naval architect of the vessel to design the accommodation block. Standardized templates are used for arrangement of the modules. The spaces in the accommodation are categorized into three module classes. The DSF can calculate the optimum size, type and location of the modules according to design requirements and system constraints. The vessel database is used here to determine the required area for the spaces that are not standardized. The DSF is demonstrated by an illustrative example and later by a simplified real case study. A mock up of a user interface has also been developed to give an idea of user interaction with a computer tool based on the DSF. For the real case study, a small program has been developed containing some 1200+ lines of code, which can process simplified accommodation design cases.To build an effective DSS for designing the accommodation block of OSVs, standardization of spaces by modularization must be done with enough room for flexibility of design by designer intervention. This DSF exhibits the underlying logics and structure of such DSS, which can be very useful to the designers upon further development.

Marine System Design in New Product Development under Technological UncertaintyMalluzzo, Tomas January 2017 (has links)
Given the necessity to achieve vertical integration in complex NPD projects, this study offers a perspective on the implication of customers and suppliers involvement under technological uncertainty. The purpose of this work is to use SoSE in order to develop a framework that may support Marine system design in NPD under technological uncertainty. It has been assumed that it is possible to achieve the Pareto optimum with respect to the key variables influencing the success of the NPD process; furthermore, this study will explore the possibility to tackle the goal misalignment between Customer, Suppliers and OEMs interacting in an evolving scenario and to offer a decisional ground for the mitigation of such misalignment. Concluding, the purpose of this study has been expanded by answering three research questions on how Technological uncertainty influences NPD in Marine System Design, what alternative frameworks can be used to structure such designs and how System of Systems Engineering can be used to build such alternatives. The structure of the model built in this report is based on the concepts related to Enterprise System of Systems Engineering (SoSE), Agency Costs and Transaction Costs theories. The analysis is based on a case study where a propulsion system has to be developed in order to meet the incumbent environmental deadline imposed by the Policy maker, while taking into account future adaptations. Basing on the results, the largest misalignments pertain to the Value dimension, where the actors prioritized different features depending on their different positioning of the actors in the value chain, leading to an increase of the Agency costs in the NPD. On the other hand, the possibilities to share the knowledge, to split the costs over the involved parties and to reduce the Transaction costs represent the main advantages perceived from the actors. An integrative type of structure of the collaboration within the actors, for instance establishing a Joint venture or through Integrated development, would reduce the misalignments. Finally, ABB can use SoSE in order to manage its internal R&D process and the involvement of customers and suppliers. In general, SoS can help OEMs in dealing with uncertainty thanks to the concept of fluid boundaries. As a consequence, the integrated system will benefit of greater flexibility while complying with the requirements given by the customers and the suppliers.
