Engineering Technology Programs at Old Dominion University 2/13/2006 Power Point Slideshow SNAME is the sole owner of the following papers. One printed copy of each paper may be made for personal use. These papers may not be distributed en masse for any purpose. We appreciate your cooperation in this matter. Enhancing Interoperability Throughout the Design and Manufacturing Process This paper concerns the “one shipyard” concept and the issues that each individual yard’s software has in communicating with other software types (i.e. CATIA vs. Ship Constructor). Leading a Sea Change in Naval Ship Design Toward a Collaborative Product Development This paper concerns the various progresses the CISD (Center for Innovation in Ship Design) has made over the past few years in dealing with increasing budget demands, product models, and the gap between design and production. New Horizons for Shipbuilding Process Improvements This paper deals mainly with Lean and Six Sigma use and implementation in shipyards worldwide. US Navy Power Transformer Sizing Requirements Using Probabilistic Analysis This paper covers a change in the method used to predict a given transformer’s power requirements by using a systems engineering approach. Practical Welding Techniques to Minimize Distortion in Lightweight Ship Structures This paper covers the development of a set of ‘best practices’ to deal with lighter, thinner materials that the current set of welding practices does not cover. Portable Automated Plate Straightener This paper covers the development of an automated flame-straightening machine for use in shop, on the platens, or on the ship. Good news for all the shipfitters! Low Heat Input Welding for Thin Steel Fabrication This paper explains the development of HLAW (Hybrid Laser Arc Welding) technology for minimizing distortion in lightweight steel. Virtual Reality Welder Training This paper cover the development of a VR system designed to simulate the welding process, lessening the amount of money spent on, and increasing the effectiveness of welder training. Design Guidelines for Doubler Plate Repairs of Ship Structures This paper attempts to create a set of guidelines and performance data for temporary doubler plate repairs, in an effort to allow doublers to be used as permanent repairs. NGNN calls these lap plates. |
