Abstract

As a result of the international financial crisis, the shipbuilding industry experienced a downturn in the year of 2008. In order to promote restructuring and upgrading of the shipbuilding industry as well as to promote its development in a sustainable and stable way, new plan was put in place in order to retrieve the great loss in the shipbuilding industry last year. The thesis is mainly quoted at the data of ship market and shipbuilding industry, which is primarily from 1993-2002. PCA(Principal Component Analysis) and FA(Factor Analysis) are used to make the research of the main factors that affect the market demand in order to do some of the groundwork for the next round research in the ship market.
