3D 프린팅 기반 모듈화 모형선 제작

Abstract

Model ship tests are essential for analyzing the hydrostatic and hydrodynamic performance of ships before production. However, the conventional method of model ship production is relatively costly in terms of time and cost. This is because each model ship needs customization and has often been produced manually. For better affordability, this paper presents a new method for model ship production that uses modularization and 3D printing referred to as additive manufacturing. The presented method was validated in a case study in which the resistance of a modular model ship that was produced using 3D printing was compared with that of a model ship that was produced in a conventional method.
