Japan :Japan's Kyushu University Selects Intergraph(R) SmartMarine(R) 3D Design and Engineering Software for Education Program.


Byline: Mamta03

Kyushu University Despite the incorporation which has led to increased financial independence and autonomy, Kyushu University is still partly controlled by the Japanese Ministry of Education (Monbukagakusho, or Monkasho). , one of Japan's top maritime and naval architecture naval architecture, science of designing ships. A naval architect must consider especially the following factors: floatability, i.e., the ability of the ship to remain afloat while meeting the requirements of the vessel's service under normal and abnormal weather and  academic centers, has selected Intergraph(R) SmartMarine(R) 3D design and engineering software for use in its Department of Marine Systems Engineering to teach students shipbuilding design and operation training. The curriculum will also integrate Lloyd's Register a register of vessels rated according to their quality, published yearly.

 rules calculation software solutions to provide the analysis and evaluation of ship structure strength against classification rules.

Kyushu University will change its existing manual drafting education program to a new program consisting of SmartMarine 3D design and engineering software. Students will be able to create ship structure models and export these data to Lloyd's Register's RulesCalc software for structural assessment during the initial design process. Together these solutions help improve efficiency, integrating ship design and assessment with classification knowledge and experience. They also will offer better opportunities for students to use their skills upon graduation Graduation is the action of receiving or conferring an academic degree or the associated ceremony. The date of event is often called degree day. The event itself is also called commencement, convocation or invocation. , many of whom will join major Japanese shipyards.

 institution in Japan to use SmartMarine 3D in its curriculum.

SmartMarine 3D is a key component of Intergraph's multidiscipline SmartMarine Enterprise portfolio which provides all the capabilities needed to design and build offshore devices or ships from design to fabrication fabrication (fab´rikā´shn),

 to operations and maintenance - all in a single, integrated environment. It is a data-centric, rule-driven solution for streamlining design processes while preserving existing data and making it more useable/re-useable over the operation, maintenance and modification life cycle of the device.

"Kyushu University prides itself on its ability to prepare students for industry and innovation, providing them the best educational tools and personnel available," said Dr. Akiji Shinkai, professor of Engineering at Kyushu University. "Intergraph's SmartMarine 3D, the next-generation of shipbuilding design, integrated with Lloyd's Register's RulesCalc software will certainly continue this tradition of excellence for our naval architecture and marine systems engineering students."

Gerhard Sallinger, Intergraph Process, Power and Marine president, said, "We are honored hon·or
