Description

<jats:p>Production planning is an important factor for production efficiency in the shipyard. However, planning is currently executed by manual operations based on the experience of field workers because of the complexity of the target shipbuilding project. This paper proposes a method of creating a realistic production plan automatically by modeling the complex shipbuilding project and using the developed process simulation. Specifically, we propose a method to represent the target shipbuilding process by four system models—Product, Workflow, Workplace, and Team. By executing the developed process simulation using system models, a Gantt chart can be created as a realistic production plan. From the case studies of a virtual shipyard manufacturing a ship hull block, it can be said that the proposed method can create a good production plan considering the complexity of the target shipbuilding project. In addition, the proposed method can evaluate the bottleneck of the target shipyard and the re-allocation plan for workers quantitatively.</jats:p>
