Scheduling for shipbuilding processes has many alternative solutions since it has long time horizon and handles many jobs. This requests the scheduling system to generate and search feasible alternative solutions in short period of time. Among shipbuilding schedules, the ship erection schedule in a dock is the most important since the dock is the most critical resource in shipyard. In this research, we model the erection scheduling problem for shipbuilding and develop a new problem solving method using CST(Constraint Satisfaction Technique) and ILOG Scheduler. Experimental results show that the proposed scheduling method outperforms the existing manual scheduling methods in terms of schedule performance and required time.

Korean naval architecture company today is making researches in expansion of productivity of their own accord. In result, they have accomplished many technical developments like a ground shipbuilding system. For our company's productivity expansion in our yard's limited condition (the facility, P.E area, stock area), we develop isometric pre-erection method that turn into a possibility to maximize our facility use, minimize our dock period.

To develop a sildenafil lactate-loaded solid self-emulsifying drug delivery system (SEDDS) with a fast onset of action and immediate action of erection, sildenafil lactate (0.3 g), which was prepared using a spray dryer, was dissolved in 4.7 g of the mixture of glyceryl monooleate/Transcutol/ Tween 20 (3/0.5/1, g). Its emulsion droplet size and pharmacokinetics in rabbits were evaluated compared with sildenafil citrate-loaded commercial tablet. The sildenafil lactateloaded SEDDS showed an emulsion droplet size of about 300 nm. In pharmacokinetics study, it gave significantly faster Tmax than did the commercial tablet. Thus, the sildenafil lactate-loaded SEDDS at the one-third drug dose compared to sildenafil citrate-loaded conventional tablet might induce a fast onset of action and immediate erection without enhanced bioavailability compared with the sildenafil citrate-loaded commercial tablet.

Welding work in pre-erection or erection stage of shipbuilding construction to be carried out in flat and vertical upward position mostly and Electrogas welding(EGW) is actively applied especially for vertical butt joint of thicker steel plate recently. In this study considered how to develope and improve mechanical properties of weld metal and HAZ in high heat input welding processes such as EGW and Electroslag welding(ESW) with its welding equipment in order to extend the application range to the longitudinal members and hatch coaming parts of container ship. Some components of welding system and parameters were modified to get the faster travel speed and reduce weld heat input, and also by adding additional filler rods or tubes increase the amount of deposited weld metal. With the test get some good date can apply to actual fabrication work and recommend items to manufacture welding materials make better. Above all things it's a fruition that to prepare the possibility of application of ESW to shipbuilding construction which fill up the gap of stoppage days of more than 20 years.

Determination of navigation variables (latitude, longitude, and altitude) near the earth's surface is termed 'Terrestrial Navigation'. The quantities that are measured inertially are the total acceleration (or the integral fo this acceleration over a fixed time interval) and the total angular rate (or the integral of this angular rate over the same time interval). These measurements when suitably compensated can be manipulated to yield the navigation variables. Hence, it is essential that the initial values of position, orientation and velocity are accurately set up during the initial alignment process. Initial alignment of gimballed inertial navigation system ( GINS) is accomplished by gyrocompassing techniques. These cannot be used, in the case of strapdown inertial navigation system(SDINS), where the inertial instruments are directly strapped down to a vehicle frame. The basic objective of this paper is the development of digital method for the determination of the initial axes erection of a SDINS from vibration and sway currupted data on the launch pad.

Recently, floating cranes are mainly used to erect heavy blocks or cargos for constructing ships in many shipyards. It is important to estimate the dynamic motion of the heavy cargo suspended by a floating crane and the tension of the wire ropes between the floating crane and the heavy cargo. In this paper, the coupled dynamic equations of motion are set up for considering the 6 degree-of-freedom floating crane and the 6-degrees-of-freedom heavy cargo based on multibody system dynamics. Depending on the cargo weight, the motion of the floating crane would be changed to nonlinear state. The nonlinear terms in the equation of motion are considered. In addition, the nonlinear hydrostatic force, the linear hydrodynamic force, wire rope force, mooring force and gravity force are considered as the external forces. As the result of this paper, we analyze the engineering effect for erecting the heavy cargo by using the floating crane.

Cable-stayed bridges are more inherently vulnerable to wind during the erection stages than when they are already being used. Even if a bridge that is already being used is aerodynamically stable, it is prone to having aerodynamic instabilities within the design wind speed during construction. Therefore, when the bridge's designers deliberate on the method they will use in constructing the bridge, they must likewise come up with a suitable plan to ensure the stability of the bridge during its erection (e.g., conducting a wind-tunnel investigation). This paper describes the aeroelastic full-bridge model tests that were conducted to investigate the aerodynamic behavior of the bridge during erection, with emphasis on aerodynamic stability and the mitigation of the buffeting response through temporary stabilization. The aerodynamic performance of a cable -stayed bridge with a main span of 50 m was studied in its completed stage and in two erection stages, corresponding 50% and 90% completion, respectively. In the 50% erection stage tests, a balanced cantilever configuration, with wind cable and temporary support at the tower, was conducted. The system that was determined to be most effective in reducing wind action on the bridge during construction was proposed in the paper, based on the results of the comparative study that was conducted.

In this study, a simulation framework, which can support developing various simulation systems for the improvement of process planning in shipbuilding such as the block erection, the block turn-over, and so on, is proposed. In addition, a simulation kernel, which is a key component of the simulation framework, is implemented according to the concept of the combined discrete event and discrete time simulation. To evaluate the efficiency and applicability of the proposed simulation framework, it is applied to the block erection process in shipbuilding. The result shows that the proposed simulation framework can provide the consistent, integrated development environment for a simulation system, as compared with existing studies and commercial simulation systems.

There are insufficient models that find problems and solutions for accident prevention through risk assessment and suggest safe work process and work instruction from foundation works to finish work for accident decrease. This paper presents a quantitative risk assessment model by analysis of risk factors in each process such as foundation, erection, structure, equipment finish and etc based on accident examples and investigation on actual condition in building. In addition, the safety management system was developed to perform risk assessment of construction and use it for effective safety training for labor.
