An Optimization Model for Shell Plate Seam Landing Using Minimum Manufacturing Cost and a Solution by Genetic Algorithm by Ho Rim Pae, Min Hyok Jon, Chol Jun Pak

“…In this paper, a new optimization model and its solution method for the landing of seams and butts (for convenience, seam and butt are simply called seam) on the ship hull surface are proposed in order to improve the shipbuilding efficiency. The minimum manufacturing cost of ship hull shell plates (SHSPs) is the objective function, the rules and requirements for the seam position and the size of a single shell plate are the constraints, and the position and shape of the seam are the design variables. …”
