I. INTRODUCTION

According to the report of ECORYS [1]

, the global shipbuilding market has faced the next down cycle in recent years since

the end of 2008. In addition, the world’s economic crisis also increased the strict competitive pressure for shipyards in the end

of 2008. Most shipyards in Asia confront a lot of challenges in development strategies especially in Vietnam. Nowadays, pro-

gressive shipbuilders come from China, Japan, Korea, Singapore, Philippines, India, Russia and Brazil have non-stopped to

strengthen their advantages by applying new innovative technologies in their shipbuilding and ship design processes.

In South Korea, Seoul National University, Samsung Heavy Industry and some national institutes are funded to carry out

the project “Integrated Digital Shipbuilding Technology for Development of High Value-added Ship” since 2001 [2]

. In May of

2010, one of the world leading suppliers of 3D simulation-based systems and PLM solutions, Dassault Systèmes cooperated

with the government of South Korea, and Keimyung University in setting up their Shipbuilding R&D Center at Keimyung

University in Daegu [3]

. This center supports both Korea’s shipbuilders and universities in developing and applying the new 3D

simulation-based systems in production, design, and management processes. As a result of this project, Samsung Heavy Indus-

tries is an essential shipbuilder in South Korea has adopted DEMILIA solution to develop the next-generation simulation ship-

building system since January of 2003 [4]

. Hyundai Heavy Industries has also owned their digital shipbuilding technology via

advanced 3D simulation-based solutions as AVEVA Marine, NAPA, Nastran, and Teamcenter, Technomatix (Fig. 1) [5]

.

China is recently one of the world leading nations in the order-book [1]

. To build the ship with the low cost, higher quality

and hand over ship faster to ship-owners, Chinese shipyards have adopted 3D simulation-based support systems from concept

design through engineering to production, operation and maintenance. Yantai Raffles shipyard is a success paradigm in de-

ploying 3D simulation-based systems of Dassault Systèmes (Fig. 2) [6]

.

Vietnam’s shipbuilders have to catch this new trend to survive in the world competitive environment. There are some ship-

builders intend to streamline the 3D simulation-based production systems. The PTSC Mechanical and Construction (PTSC

M&C) under the Vietnam National Oil and Gas Group is one of typical examples in using AVEVA PDMS to design and simu-

late 3D model of 600 meter well head riser topside for the Pearl field since 2008 (Fig. 3) [8]

.

Fig. 3 600-meter wellhead riser topside is simulated via AVEVA PDMS by PTSC M&C [8]

The evaluation of the essential 3D support systems of substantial shipyards in China and Korea will assist the director

board of Vietnam’s shipbuilders comprehend the important role of Simulation-Based Design (SBD) and Computer Integrated

Manufacturing (CIM) in the Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) solution. Hence, the board of shipyards can make the right

decisions in bidding a project besides coordinating effectively the enterprise resources to not only optimize the profits, and but

also enhance the shipyard’s competitive advantages compared with the neighbor nations as China, Singapore, Indonesia, Ma-

laysia and Philippine.

II. 3D SIMULATION-BASED SUPPORT SYSTEMS IN PLM SOLUTION

The shipbuilding ecosystem is a very complex architecture including shipyard, ship owner, ship registration organization,

design office, sub-contractor and supplier. As Fig. 4, the ship production project management is required to coordinating (1)

ship engineering, (2) ship construction, and (3) ship maintenance and operation from project development through fabrication

and erection to out fitting and accommodations [9]

. Due to the practical network with highly collaboration in ship production

processes, the project planning is the most pivotal step. The digital shipbuilding bases on the simulation, real time visualiza-

tion, and high performance computing will reduce the time and avoid the error in the design and production planning. Besides

that, the workflow, bills of material (BOM), Product Database Management (PDM) systems are essential parts in planning to

control the cost overruns and avoid ship delivery delay. Hence, the BOM, PDM, and workflow integrated into PLM solution

helps planners have the overview of the whole of project, and thus to make the right decision in planning.

Fig. 4 Project coordination in ship production process [9]

In the stages of ship engineering and ship construction, the Computer Aided Design (CAD), Computer Aided Manufactur-

ing (CAM), Computer Aided Engineering (CAE) and Digital Mock-Up (DMU) technologies will be integrated into the SBD

and CIM systems [9]

. These support systems are available to improve the quality of design and shorten the stages of product

development and manufacturing via reusing and analyzing the 3D models directly. In addition, the design and production data

can be exchanged easily through standardized data as DWG, STEP and IGS.

Almost shipyards build the ship with the block erection process. Within each shipyard, they will own their shipbuilding

process to be suitable with each ship type and factory environment. The Fig. 5 will analyze the typical ship production process

using the block erection technology [10]

. In the block erection sequence planning, the location and the time are two important

factors. The SBD and CIM can simulate the 3D block construction in the real time, then support the operators make essential

decisions about time and location to erect the block construction assembly. As a result, the shipbuilders can decrease the time

and coordinate logically the enterprise resource as the human and the equipment.

Fig. 5 The shipbuilding process using block erection technology [10]

The successful shipyards around the world increasingly choose essential component outsourcing to optimize the enterprise

resource, thus to collaborate experts of many different sites and improving the shipyard capacity. In typical shipbuilding char-

acteristics, the marine equipment supply chain and construction sites can place around the world.

These above concerns will create the high pressure for the communication and coordination. The 3D simulation-based sup-

port systems in PLM solution will allow each member access on 3D models dynamically with suitable levels in real time to

update any information of any stages of project. For example, if the ship owner wants to choose the other marine engine, im-

mediately the ship designer will update information and modify the design, at the same time as the shipyard will receive the

changes of drawing and send the new order to supplier.

To comprehend the advantages of applying 3D simulation-based support systems of PLM solution, the paper will briefly

analyze two case studies involving Yantai Raffles shipyard of China and Samsung Heavy Industries of South of Korea. Be-

sides that the paper will show the current situation of SBD and CIM application in Viet Nam.

A. Case Study: Yantai CIMC Raffles Offshore Ltd., China

Yantai CIMC Raffles Offshore Ltd has three shipyards, which are located in Yantai, Haiyang, and Longkou in Shandong

province, China. It is known as the largest rig builder with nearly 4,000 employees and 8,000 sub-contracted workers in China.

The shipyard in Yantai, also called Yantai Raffles shipyard (YRS), can positively design and build the Jack-ups with leg’s

length over 120 m besides semi-submersible drilling rigs, and heavy derrick pipe-lay vessels.

With increasing development and high competitive pressure, YRS has to transform the original 2D CAD systems into the

innovative 3D simulation-based support systems to streamline their design and production capacity. Since 2008, DS PLM solu-

tions including CATIA, SIMULIA, DELMIA, and ENOVIA VPLM have usefully been implemented by YRS [11, 12]

.

YRS has deployed CATIA and SIMULIA to optimize their offshore structure design and shorten the product development

time. Creatively, engineers of YRS used CATIA to design the world’s largest crane named Taisunalong with SIMULIA for

optimizing their design via finite element analysis (FEA) as shown in Fig. 6. With 20,000 metric ton capacity of Taisun crane,

YRS can build the huge oil rigs faster via transporting and erecting heavier structure blocks.

Particularly, full marine engineering module is integrated into CATIA as ship structure design, heating – ventilation – air

condition (HVAC) design, piping design, electric system design, and outfitting design to help engineers and designers shorten

the new product development time (Fig. 7). In addition, DMU technology in CATIA encourages engineers and designers visu-

ally simulate the block structure fitting sequence, kinematic characteristics, and even analyze workshop spaces to innovate

suitably their design, and thus to meet customer’s demands.

Fig. 7 Complex systems of semi-submersible platforms are simulated by CATIA [12]

On the other side, DELMIA provides 3D simulation-based manufacturing systems with visual environment and digital

mock-ups technology to analyze the potential problems in real production condition and plan completely the shipbuilding pro-

cesses especially in block erection and fabrication (Fig. 8). YRS’s managers can plan effectively enterprise resources, such as

human power, material, and crane operation, especially in optimizing the shipyard space via DELMIA. YRS can satisfy cus-

tomer’s demands by reducing the operation training cost through the maintenance procedure simulation with DELMIA.

The most important advantage of DS PLM solution is that suppliers, clients and YRS can track easily designs and update

any information related with their project inside CATIA’s visual environment. Corresponding to full collaboration environ-

ment of ENOVIA VPLM, YRS can successfully enhance their shipbuilding capacity by controlling strictly the outsource activ-

ities of sub-contractors, cooperating logically equipment suppliers. Hence, all members of management board can cover all

aspects of project, and make the right decisions in right time.

The new innovative 3D simulation-based support systems of DS PLM solution enable YRS to shorten the production pro-

cess as much as 70% faster, and improve effectively the design capacity as much as 30%. According to [16, 17]

, DS PLM solu-

tion assists YRS optimizes their investment budget and increases the profitable income due to decreasing over two million man

hours in building the semi-submersible platform. Besides that multiple partners can comprehend easily the design criteria by

evaluating the 3D simulation-based models, thus to shortening the building time, reducing the unexpected production cost, and

also restricting the unforeseen mistakes in practice production.

B. Case Study: Samsung Heavy Industries, South Korea

In 2001, Samsung Heavy Industries (SHI) was a member of the key national project in building a simulation-based digital

shipyard. The essential goal of this project is to improve national shipbuilders’ competitive advantages. Since 2003 Samsung’s

shipyard has effectively launched DELMIA digital manufacturing technology of Dassault Systèmes to build their simulation-

based digital shipyard. As positive results, Geoje shipyard of SHI applied usefully DELMIA to optimize block erection proce-

dures and also enhance the maintenance processes. The new technology is expected to save US$7.3 million a year by simulat-

ing all aspects of ship production processes in visual environment.

Up to now, SHI with around 13,000 employees can deliver more than 70 vessels every year. As stated by Intergraph, SHI

implemented Smart Marine 3D solution of Intergraph for developing its 3D simulation-based design (SBD) system [4, 13, 14]

.

Recently, SHI has carried out the new projects of field development ship (FDS) design. The structure of FDS is such a compli-

cated design that SHI has coped with difficult situations in design stage (Fig. 9). Smart Marine 3D provides state of the art

digital solution to support marine engineers design the complex structures as bulbous bow design (Fig. 10) and systems as

electrical, HVAC, and piping (Fig. 11). SHI owns advanced method of mega-block erection process to minimize the fabricated

blocks and thus to shorten delivery time. SHI has to fabricate such complex mega-blocks and install marine equipment in pre-

assembly stage. Material procurement planning plays a very essential role to secure the project schedule.

To deal with above issues, Smart Marine 3D with cutting edge planning environment supports project managers can oper-

ate flexibly the overall project schedule through planning exactly the block assembly time, and controlling strictly fabrication

procedures.

Consequently, 3D simulation-based support systems enable SHI avoids the potential errors in design and manufacturing

processes, and thus to save production cost and maximize ROI [15, 16, 17]

.

C. 3D Simulation-Based System Application in Vietnam

Back to Vietnam, most of engineers are similar to 2D CAD solutions especially in AutoCAD of Autodesk. Because 3D

simulation-based solution in design and manufacturing is still so expensive and almost shipbuilders are small - middle size

productivity and just focus on the market segment of ship construction and repair. However, some marine and offshore build-

ers with huge investment and sustainable development recently shift from traditional 2D CAD systems into 3D simulation-

based systems. Many 3DCAD/CAM/CAE solutions for shipbuilding industry are represented in Vietnam involving Maxsurf,

AutoShip, Ship Constructor, AVEVA PDMS, Smart Marine 3D, Nupas-Cadmatic, Unigraphic NX, and CATIA. There are

Maxsurf, AutoShip, Ship Constructor, and AVEVA PDMS have been trained by Vietnam’s universities graduating marine

engineering, and naval architecture.

Ship Constructor software is popularly 3D simulation-based manufacturing solution in shipyards of Vietnam because it in-

terfaces with AutoCAD and is introduced in major universities. One of successful stories, Hong Ha Shipbuilding Company (or

Z173 factory under Ministry of Defense) implemented successfully Ship Constructor to design the new naval artillery ship [18,

19]. Saigon Shipbuilding Industry Co. Ltd used Unigraphic NX5 of Siemens to build 3D simulation-based models of piping and

electric systems [20]

. On the other software, Nupas-Cadmatic is used by Saigon Shipmarine shipyard to move forward 3D simu-

lation-based design [21]

. In offshore market, STX OSV shipyard and PTSC M&C have adopted AVEVA solution to maintain

their competitive advantages with modern SBD and CIM systems [8, 22]

. Intergraph solutions as Smart Marine 3D and Smart

Plant 3D are also effectively applied by VIETSOVPETRO and PV Shipyard to build complex offshore structures in 3D visual

environment [23, 24]

. The proven successes indicated the new trend of 3D simulation-based support system application in Vi-

etnam. More details can be read in [25, 26]

.

III. THE WAY TO BUILD THE 3D SIMULATION-BASED SUPPORT SYSTEM FOR THE SHIPBUILDING IN VIETNAM

Nowadays, principal offshore builders and shipbuilders in Vietnam cooperate closely with international customers or are

directly invested by foreign groups as STX OSV, and TRIYARD SSY. As the results, each shipyard owns not only different

CAD/CAM solutions but also complex modern management systems. In addition, there has also an issue that the chief em-

ployees of shipyards move their position into other shipyards. Both of these shipyards will waste time by training new employ-

ees again to adapt the new environment. These reasons require that the new SBD-CIM systems should be high flexibility, com-

fortable comprehension, and especially in meshing effectively with concurrent systems.

There are three ways to build the new shipbuilding simulation-based support system in Vietnam. The first way is that the

SBD - CIM system will be developed by popular interactive programming languages such as Visual C++, Visual Fortran, and

Visual Basic [10]

. The advantage of suggestion, the shipyard can save investment cost by building the relationship with univer-

sity to research and develop the suitable SBD-CIM system. Besides that, open source programming languages recently is pow-

erful enough to develop successful SBD-CIM systems. For example, Aras Innovator is PLM solution based on open source

developed by Aras Corporation [27]

. It is the innovative trend that the SBD-CIM system can be operated totally on internet via

loud computing technologies.

As the Fig. 12, the input of new SBD-CIM system includes 3D models of ship, detailed production planning, and shipyard's

production environment [2, 10]

. All models can be created from advanced 3D CAD solution. The shipyard environment will

easily be scanned by high-end 3D scan technologies. Production planning information is also integrated into SBD - CIM sys-

tem via management tools as MS Project, which is well-known in the project management. The output of simulation based

support systems can show the simulation, analysis, statistics, bill of material, and even prediction reports as collision prediction

in block erection procedure, material and human resource prediction [2, 10]

. Hence, the SBD-CIM system helps effectively the

shipyard in ship lifecycle management, project management, and even production process control and evaluation (Fig. 13).

On the other hand, to save time, the shipyard management board can consider the next generation of SBD-CIM systems in-

tegrated into total PLM solutions from famous vendors. In the third way, shipyard and universities can be care about the flexi-

ble simulation based support packets. The new packets will build depending on the programming language in the shipyard’s

concurrent CAD system.

In any cases, the shipyard should totally consider the shipyard’s whole capacity from design, production capacity to finance

ability and even new projects in future.

IV. CONCLUSION

The global competitive environment is increasing strictly pushing Vietnam’s shipbuilder forward into the digital shipbuild-

ing database management and 3D simulation-based technologies, and thus to (1) save man hours, and manufacturing cost, (2)

optimize ROI rate, (3) decision making assistant, and (4) improve design, production, operation and maintenance capability.

Intelligent PLM platform enables shipyards to achieve these essential goals in the next development strategies. Up to now,

Vietnam lacks of research and analysis of intelligent PLM platform although 3D simulation-based design (SBD) and computer

integrated manufacturing (CIM) has recently appeared in foreign-invested shipyards and government-owned groups. The anal-

ysis is one of series in project “Research and build digital simulation-based support system for shipbuilding industry” to assist

marine and offshore builders of Vietnam comprehend the advantages of SBD and CIM especially in new PLM solution appli-

cation.

Finally, marine and offshore builders in Vietnam should consider clearly new PLM solutions based on project budget,

shipyard’s size, and employee ability. Hence, shipyard can choose the suitable PLM package to optimize ROI and advance the

competitiveness.
