Generation of Erection Sequence in Shipbuilding Process Planning

This paper explains a way of describing the erection sequence using the connecting relationship among blocks of a hull in shipbuilding industry. The information of the adjacent blocks such as upper, lower, right, left, front, rear, and their erection status, etd., is defined and the proper use of this allows us to determine one of the possible erection sequences. The methodology suggested also includes some useful benefits of avoiding insert blocks or maintaining stability in erection process. Further, an algorithm for generating the initial erection network is shown and this network may be a basis for designing daily erection scheduling. Some examples illustrate the procedure developed in this study and the results support the model's fidelity.
