Future of ShipbuildingBuilding Ships for Captain KirkDenis Morais

Shipbuilding is at a tipping point leading to a significant change in the way we build ships!

-Denis Morais

Why Now?ss

What is Driving us to Change Now for the Future?

Drivers Forcing us to Change Now for the Future?

1. Shipbuilding Industry Hard Times1. Remove old baggage holding us back | Re-evaluate our challenges

2. New Customer RequirementsEnvironmental Regulations | Autonomous ships | Ship lifecycle | New markets

3. Evolving Industry TrendsDistributed concurrent environment | Replenish Workforce | Automation

4. Innovation on Broad SpectrumEnabler | Accelerating technology due to feedback relationship | Mature solutions

What does the Future (15+ years) Look Like? Using my Crystal Ball

How will Engineering Design Work in the Future

Client's Requirements/Specifications• IoT | Big Data | Machine Learning | Artificial Intelligence

• Determine the best requirements for ship to maximize business

Designing the Ship• Infinite Computing (Cloud) | Generative Designs | Big data | Artificial Intelligence

• More iterations | no simplifications | more creative process

Integrating Customers into the Design Process• Virtual Reality | Infinite Computing

• Instant feedback | more variations | optimal design

How will Detail Design Work in the Future?

Transparent Connections between People & Systems (Like Cyborgs)

• Live – Always On

• Transparent to Users

• New Systems (Artificial Intelligence / Rule Based Guidance / Etc.)

No More Context Switching• User Initiated Request/Action

• Asynchronous Automatic System Determination

• Synchronous Automatic System Determination

As-Built 3D Models (Finally )

• Context is King

• Realization of Benefit for Manufacturing

• Digital Ship (aka. Digital Twin) Requirement from Buyers

How will Manufacturing Work in the Future?

Communication & Verification

Cyber-Physical Systems & Automation of Machines

IoT

Workers Safety & Security

Drones & Autonomous Vehicles

3D Printing

What does the Journey look like
