THE EXTENSION OF SYSTEM BOUNDARIES IN SHIP DESIGN

In this paper we address the challenges arising from the public pressure to curb greenhouse gas emission from shipping. The shipping industry must expect that inefficiencies or sub-optimality in the transport systems will be curbed or punished severely. We present available technology to improve energy efficiency, and argue that decisions to apply such technology in a design process have to consider the vessel in its operational setting. We further discuss how this affects existing or introduces new design parameters. In the new situation, the relationship between a ship and its intended mission cannot be “broken” by a contractual document, such as a requirements specification. A ship designer needs to engage in the use of the ship, moving from being a ship designer to participating directly in a transport system design. In the paper we propose some amendments to existing models, and the framework of design tools, that facilitate this change.
