Quantifying Flexibility in Naval Ship Design
Warships are highly complex and complicated systems that are designed in the present to address problems that will exist decades in the future. Because of the significant time gap between preliminary design and the end of the ship’s service life, it is critical that it be built with flexibility in …

Multi-criteria analysis in naval ship design
… criteria have been an issue for marine/naval engineering design studies for many years. This problem becomes more important when one considers novel ship types with very limited or no operational record. A number of approaches have been proposed to overcome these multiple criteria design …

Manning Analysis in Naval Ship Concept Design
The total cost of ownership of a naval ship is largely influenced by decisions made during concept design. In recent years the US Navy has undertaken numerous initiatives to reduce total ownership cost. This has prompted particular interest in reducing manning, as this is the largest single …

Manning and Automation Model for Naval Ship Analysis and Optimization
The manning of a ship is a major driver of life cycle cost. The U.S. Government Accounting Office (GAO) has determined that manpower is the single most influential component in the life cycle cost of a ship. Life cycle cost is largely determined by decisions made during concept design. …
