Computer Aided Ship Design System (CAD-ENVC)

Duration: 01.01.1990-31.12.1994 (48 months)

Coordination: Instituto Superior Técnico

Partners: Estaleiros Navais de Viana do Castelo

Funding Entity: Estaleiros Navais de Viana do Castelo

This project developed a system for computer aided representation of the ship geometry and structure. The system represents the ship lines, provides the faring of the lines and the plate development so as to give the necessary information to the cutting and the further working of the hull plating. The system will design the structural elements and will keep the geometrical information in a database. The information about structural components will be transferred to numerically controlled machines and to welding robots.
