Ship and submarine design often requires the designer to approximate, make assumptions, consider scenarios and imagine how the vessel may be used in operation. Having the ability to consult for feedback or request additional information may be a welcome aid. The onset of Generative AI (GENAI) presents a new opportunity to integrate this resource into the workflows of the concept ship design process. Augmenting the design process could have a positive impact on the outcome of the design, further improving various qualities such as performance, sustainability, equality, diversity and inclusion. Aspects associated with weight groups, payload catalogues, technical analysis and layout set out will be explored to investigate whether GENAI could add value to the design process. A case study will be used to facilitate this investigation, taking note of GENAI’s content throughout the process. date: 2024-06-05 date_type: published publisher: IMDC official_url: https://doi.org/10.59490/imdc.2024.752 oa_status: green full_text_type: pub language: eng primo: open primo_central: open_green verified: verified_manual elements_id: 2296808 doi: 10.59490/imdc.2024.752 lyricists_name: Grech La Rosa, Andrea lyricists_id: GRECH72 actors_name: Grech La Rosa, Andrea actors_id: GRECH72 actors_role: owner full_text_status: public pres_type: paper event_title: 15th International Marine Design Conference (IMDC 2024) event_dates: 2 Jun 2024 - 6 Jun 2024 book_title: Proceedings of the 15th International Marine Design Conference (IMDC 2024) citation: Grech La Rosa, Andrea; Simpson, Peter; Zammit, Ryan; (2024) Exploring the Opportunities of Generative Artificial Intelligence in Concept Ship Design.
