<strong>SSG</strong>(X) <strong>Design</strong> – VT Team 3 Page 33<br />

group weights are found by summing the individual components and VCGs are calculated using<br />

weight moments. The hull geometry determines the center of buoyancy which is used with the overall<br />

VCG to calculate GB (the submerged stability condition). The surface stability condition (GM) is<br />

calculated using stability formula which considers the waterplane’s contribution to the stability. This<br />

module also calculates lead weight as difference between NSC weight and ever-buoyant displacement.<br />

The feasibility module assesses the feasibility of this weight to satisfy minimum design and stability<br />

lead requirements.<br />

• Feasibility Module: Calculates ratios comparing the actual values of snorkel endurance range, AIP<br />

endurance duration, sustained speed, spring duration, submerged GB, surfaced GM, weight of lead,<br />

free flood, arrangeable area, and the stores and provisions duration to applicable minimums and\or<br />

maximums. Each ratio must be positive for a feasible design. Each of these ratios are output to the<br />

MOGO Module to determine if the design is feasible.<br />

• OMOE Module: Calculates a Value of Performance (VOP) for each Measure of Performance (MOP)<br />

using the actual values calculated and an Overall Measure of Effectiveness (OMOE). Each VOP is<br />

calculated based on weights provided by a previously-completed pair-wise comparison process. The<br />

OMOE (the only output) is calculated using each VOP added together using weights provided by the<br />

pair-wise comparison. The calculation of the OMOE is further described in 3.4.1.<br />

• Cost Module: Calculates the basic cost of construction (CBCC). The Cost Module calculates labor<br />

costs for each SWBS group using complexity factors and SWBS groups’ weights, material costs using<br />

SWBS groups’ weights, direct and indirect (using overhead) costs, and the basic cost of construction<br />

using the direct and indirect cost and a profit margin. The calculation of cost is further described in<br />

3.4.3.<br />

• Risk Module: Calculates an Overall Measure of Risk. The OMOR is found by first calculating a<br />

performance, cost, and schedule risk for each system (DVs) based on risk factors determined
