[en] Holistic ship design comprises the tasks of all needed disciplines from the general arrangement, the hydrodynamic, machinery, etc. to the assessment of cost and customer requirements. The unique issue in HOLISHIP’s holistic approach is to leave the traditional series connection of the above-mentioned design tasks, the well-known design spiral, towards the use of a connection in parallel. This approach is used in the very early design stage, the concept design, as well as in a more sophisticated stage, the contract design phase. The public deliverable gives an overview of the structural tools and their use in the industrial scenarios. Here, the level of information is relatively high and based on yard/designer/owner requirements. The main challenge in the design phase is to accurately carry out the structural assessment/optimisation within a limited time frame. This is why, the use of advanced tools (as necessary for more accurate assessments in contract design phase) would be demanding in terms of computational time. The aim of HOLISHIP is to use the new design methodology to enable an efficient/reliable design procedure leading to further improved design solution(s) in contract phase.
