Human Resource Management in National Shipping

This chapter of this book shows that the mastery of some modern techniques is needed by the ship’s crew who work in a management to build a modern ship, in accordance with the theme of this project, namely modern ship engineering, design and operations. The main problem is how the management leaders of this modern ship project can apply transformational leadership style through work-life balance and employee engagement to the ship’s crew to make their work effectiveness improved. In carrying out the ship building which takes a quite long time, do the employees can be mutually engaged and can pay equal attention to the work in this project and the work at home? This study uses quantitative method with Structural Equation Modeling. This modern ship building uses some terminologies or variables of human resources such as transformational leadership style, work-life balance, and employee engagement which, based on the research done, directly and positively affect employee’s work effectiveness. The key findings of this study indicate that there is a specific model on employee engagement and crew work effectiveness that is very appropriate to be applied to modern ships related to engineering, design and operations.

Finite Element Method for Ship Composite-Based on Aluminum

The structure and construction of ships made of aluminum alloy, generally of the type of wrought aluminum alloy, when experiencing fatigue failure caused by cracking of the ship structure, is a serious problem. Judging from the ‘weaknesses’ of aluminum material for ships, this chapter will explain the use of alternative materials for ship building, namely aluminum-based composite material which is an aluminum alloy AlSi10Mg (b) ship building material based on the European Nation (EN) Aluminum Casting (AC) - 43,100, with silicon carbide (SiC) reinforcement which has been treated with an optimum composition of 15%, so that the composite material is written with EN AC-43100 (AlSi10Mg (b) + SiC * / 15p. Composite ship model using ANSYS (ANalysis SYStem) software to determine the distribution of stress. The overall result of the voltage distribution has a value that does not exceed the allowable stress (sigma 0.2) and has a factor of safety above the minimum allowable limit, so it is safe to use. The reduction in plate thickness on the EN AC-43100 (AlSi10Mg (b)) + SiC * /15p composite vessel is significant enough to reduce the ship’s weight, so it will increase the speed of the ship.

Transformation towards a Smart Maintenance Factory: The Case of a Vessel Maintenance Depot

The conceptualization and framework of smart factories have been intensively studied in previous studies, and the extension to various business areas has been suggested as a future research direction. This paper proposes a method for extending the smart factory concept in the ship building phase to the ship servicing phase through actual examples. In order to expand the study, we identified the differences between manufacturing and maintenance. We proposed a smart transformation procedure, framework, and architecture of a smart maintenance factory. The transformation was a large-scale operation for the entire factory beyond simply applying a single process or specific technology. The transformations were presented through a vessel maintenance depot case and the effects of improvements were discussed.

Ship building design of general cargo vessel using comparator ship method in port route of Jakarta-Makassar-Manokwari

Marine-based industrial development includes several sectors including Sea Transportation Services, Ferry Services, Capture Fisheries, Offshore Oil & Gas, Marine Biological Resources, Marine Tourism, and Energy Conversion, which in general both management and operations require supporting facilities, namely ships. with certain types that can serve these interests. During the current economic recovery period, there need to be concrete and more innovative steps that must be pursued by all parties, both government and private, in order to reduce the time needed to improve the state’s economic condition. Hence, the role of marine potential is very vital to be further developed in the future. The optimization results of the comparison ship obtained the main dimensions of the design vessel, namely: Lbp = 81.19 m, B = 15.00 m, T = 5.50 m, H = 7.00 m, Cb = 0.75, Cm = 0.99, Cw = 0.84 Cpv = 0.89, Cph = 0.76, Fb = 1.50 m, Fn = 0.22, Displacement = 5280.91 tons, Volume = 5131.583 m3, GRT = 3910 tons, Vs = 12 knots, Lwl = 83.22 m. This comparator ship method makes it easy for ship designers with accurate results.

Influence of Annealing Treatments on Welded CuNi Sheets on the Corrosion Behaviour in Sea Water

Due to their good corrosion resistance in seawater, tubes, rods, and forgings made from copper-nickel alloys (Cu-Ni) are widely used in ship building, offshore platforms, desalination plants, and numerous other applications. Welding is a major technology for joining this material. Since the microstructures of base material, weld seam, and heat affected zone may be quite different, the consequences with respect to corrosion must be considered. In this study the influence of microstructure on corrosion behaviour was investigated using welded test coupons of CuNi10Fe1.6 Mn, as-welded and after heat-treatment, by metallographic examination and electrochemical corrosion tests in synthetic seawater.

TIME ACCELERATION ANALYSIS AND OPTIMAL COST OF HOSPITAL HOSPITAL DEVELOPMENT PROJECT ON SHIP BUILDING USING CRITICAL PATH METHOD (CASE STUDY: PT. PAL INDONESIA (PERSERO))

Hospital Auxiliary Ship is an Indonesian Navy ship produced by PT. PAL Indonesia (Persero). The construction of this BRS ship was very time consuming and one of the main parts of the ship building project was the construction of the hull structure. In relation to time and production costs, the shipyard must be as efficient as possible in the use of time in each activity or activity, so that costs can be minimized from the original plan. Acceleration of the total duration in a project is done by accelerating critical activities in the project. To find out which are the critical activities of a project, the Critical Path Method (CPM) technique is used; namely by drawing a Network Diagram of the project. By using the CPM method in scheduling a ship hull construction project, it can be seen which activities should take precedence so as not to experience delays and waste. After that, the crashing method is carried out by increasing work hours (overtime) which aims to speed up the time of the project. The results of research for activities that are in the initial critical path with the CPM method can be seen as activities A, C, H, M, R, W, AB, AC, AD, AI, AP, AT, BA, BJ, BN. After accelerating, the critical path activities include activities A, C, H, M, R, W, X, AC, AD, AI, AP, AT, BA, BH, BO. Calculation of the project during initial conditions with Early working days without using overtime hours PT PAL Indonesia (Persero) costs Rp. 5,299,631,000, - while the Crashing Method is through the addition of 1 hour / day overtime so that the project implementation can be accelerated from the initial implementation of 450 days to 412 days and PT. PAL Indonesia (Persero) issued a project cost of Rp. 5,323,752,480, -. Keywords: Hospital Support Ship, Scheduling, CPM, Crashing.
