System Dynamic Continuous Computer Simulation sub model of the Business-production Shipbuilding Process – PSBP, which building started during 1991/92, in the frame work of the global science project with title “ORGANIZATION MODELING OF THE PRODUCTION PREPARING DEPARTMENT IN MARINE SHIPBUILDING” financed by Ministry of Science and Technology of the Republic of Croatia, No: 2-09-366, has been a r...

The world's shipbuilding industry as well as shipping industry is going through some unprecedented recession period in recent years. Shipbuilding companies in China have suffered a lot and many are now focusing on improving their competitiveness to survive the recession. The evaluation of a company’s competitiveness is difficult considering the high level of uncertainty involved. This paper is ...

ABSTRACT Spatial scheduling considers not only traditional scheduling constraints like resource capacity and due dates, but also dynamic spatial layout of the objects. Automation of spatial scheduling is particularly important when the spatial resources are critical bottleneck resources, as is the case in the shipbuilding industry. To develop a spatial scheduling expert system for shipbuilding,...

Based on empirical evidence from Yangtze River Delta, Pearl River Delta and Circum-Bohai-Sea region, this study applies the Input-Output (I-O) model and ArcGIS to analyze the interdependence and its dynamic evolution of the shipbuilding industry. In order to study the change cause of shipbuilding industrial structure, we decompose the I-O model to obtain the influential factors including domest...

Traditional ship-building is still widely practiced in Indonesia, Indonesia. Every province and regions has different characteristics in the design of ships in the traditional ships. The procedure to build traditional ships is far from the influence of technology. These provide a weakness on the safety for the design and operation. Current research seeks to promote a better understanding on des...

Defining 15thand 16th-century Iberian shipbuilding traditions related to European expansion overseas is a difficult task. Scarce documentary evidence and the systematic destruction of Spanish and Portuguese shipwrecks by those with a purely monetary agenda make the task even more complex. In spite of these obstacles, data suggests that a distinctive shipbuilding tradition existed on the Iberian...

Empirical investigations of the impacts of anthropogenic stressors on marine organisms are typically performed under controlled laboratory conditions, onshore mesocosms, or via offshore experiments with realistic (but uncontrolled) environmental variation. These approaches have merits, but onshore setups are generally small sized and fail to recreate natural stressor fields, whereas offshore st...
