Ship Design System Development Based On Rhino Software

Ship lines and surface design is one of the basic problems in ship design p rocess.On this paper, the molded lines of a ship can be created by a Plug-In software based on Rhino Software, which is famouse for NURBS curves and surfaces modeling capabilities.Some new methods also bring up to desgin a ship on an 3-d model desgin software.The status of current hull lines design and B-Splinea resummarized in thisdissertation.With the help of Rhino Software,wo can quickly develop designs and accurately communicate them to everyone in the product research, development, marketing, and manufacturing or construction process. Start with a sketch, drawing, physical model, scan data, or only an idea—Rhino provides the tools to accurately model and document your designs ready for rendering, animation, drafting, engineering, analysis, and manufacturing or construction.The new Rhino 4.0 .NET SDK allows you to customize and extend Rhino using any .NET 2.0 language including Microsoft's Visual Basic 2005, Visual C# 2005, and the free Microsoft Visual Studio Express Editions.
