Collaboration is the key for modern warship construction

Article Abstract:

Collaborative efforts between companies for shipbuilding result in the use novel materials and advanced process engineering methods that help in reduction of cost and the gestation time to get combat capability to sea. Technologies such as 3D CAD design, better construction techniques and materials, and cyber shipyards will be effective in making shipbuilding more efficient, economical and user friendly.

Advanced concept for damage control

Article Abstract:

The simulations that are used for a standard fire fighting procedure on a ship are evaluated. The aspects that are to be investigated are the spread of fire through bulkheads and the tolerance of people for heat and smoke and processes that have to be implemented are impact of battle stress on personnel, transport of causalities and battle damage repair.
