At the same time, combined with the hull structure CAD model, intelligently generate repair schemes to facilitate the shipyard to prepare materials, cut and repair tooling in advance, and shorten the repair cycle.

[0034] Finally, in combination with the hull structure CAD model, a local model for original repair is automatically generated according to the matched damage range, including the repair range and the material, size specifications of each component, etc. A one-key intelligent repair scheme and related description report are generated. When generating the repair scheme, the original repair method can be selected, or the expert knowledge pre-stored in the system or the specific requirements input by the engineer in real time can be selected.
