The concept phase of the naval ship design process is traditionally based on experience, balanced application of project constraints, prescriptive rules and experimental information. In the so-called early-stage design it’s advisable a close interaction between client (usually MoDs), designers and experts of naval weapon systems and equipment C4I (Command, Control, Communications, Computers, and Intelligence). The goal of this project is to develop a tool for a multi-dimensional evaluation of the operational effectiveness of a combatant ship. It is based on experts knowledge elicitation in order to specify, in a structured way, the level of significance of different solutions and possible configurations characterizing a naval unit with respect to the operational scenarios of interest. In this perspective, in the present paper the tool for knowledge elicitation will be described and discussed with specific attention to the ship technical characteristics able to describe consistently the naval unit under investigation in terms of operational capabilities, through the use of systems functional decomposition. A methodology and a tool will be therefore identified with the aim to rationally link the main ship design characteristics to operational effectiveness through systems functions.

Abstract: | The concept phase of the naval ship design process is traditionally based on experience, balanced application of project constraints, prescriptive rules and experimental information. In the so-called early-stage design it’s advisable a close interaction between client (usually MoDs), designers and experts of naval weapon systems and equipment C4I (Command, Control, Communications, Computers, and Intelligence). The goal of this project is to develop a tool for a multi-dimensional evaluation of the operational effectiveness of a combatant ship. It is based on experts knowledge elicitation in order to specify, in a structured way, the level of significance of different solutions and possible configurations characterizing a naval unit with respect to the operational scenarios of interest. In this perspective, in the present paper the tool for knowledge elicitation will be described and discussed with specific attention to the ship technical characteristics able to describe consistently the naval unit under investigation in terms of operational capabilities, through the use of systems functional decomposition. A methodology and a tool will be therefore identified with the aim to rationally link the main ship design characteristics to operational effectiveness through systems functions. |
