‘MARITIME CRASH BARRIERS’ NOMINATED FOR MARITIME KVNR SHIPPING AWARD 'Maritime Crash Barriers' has been nominated for the Maritime KVNR Shipping Award! According to the jury, this hands-on innovation by MARIN and the offshore sector is: 'an initiative with which MARIN has proactively and positively stimulated the discussion about how to better safeguard safety in the North
RECOGNISE AND PREVENT PARAMETRIC ROLLING The size of deep sea container ships has increased dramatically over the past decades. The loss of containers and their impact on the marine and coastal environments raised public and politic concerns on the safety and environmental impact of modern container ships. Authorities and industry are urged to evaluate container
HYDRODYNAMIC RESPONSE OF A FOWT SEMI-SUBMERSIBLE UNDER REGULAR WAVES USING CFD - VERIFICATION AND VALIDATION Authors Wang, Y., Chen, H., Koop, A., Vaz, G. Conference/Journal Ocean Engineering Date Aug 15, 2022 Volume 258 DOI https://doi.org/10.1016/j.oceaneng.2022.111742 In this work an extensive verification and validation study is performed to evaluate the accuracy and credibility for CFD simulations of
A CORRECTION METHOD FOR SHALLOW-WATER EFFECTS ON SHIP SPEED TRIALS In July 2021, the 29th ITTC conference accepted a new procedure to correct ship speed trials results for the effect of shallow water, under the name ‘Raven shallow water correction’. Adoption of this procedure was proposed by the ITTC Specialist Committee on Operation of Ships
VALIDATION OF THE RESISTANCE OF A PLATE MOVING THROUGH MUD - CFD MODELLING AND TOWING TANK EXPERIMENTS Authors Lovato, S., Kirichek, A., Toxopeus, S.L., Settels, J.W., Keetels, G.H. Conference/Journal Ocean Engineering Date Aug 15, 2022 Volume 258 DOI https://doi.org/10.1016/j.oceaneng.2022.111632 When investigating the effect of muddy seabeds on marine vessels using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) software,
PREDICTING CAVITATING PROPELLER NOISE IN OFF-DESIGN CONDITIONS USING SCALE-RESOLVING CFD SIMULATIONS Authors Lidtke, A.K., Lloyd, T., Lafeber, F.H., Bosschers, J. Conference/Journal Ocean Engineering Date Jun 15, 2022 Volume 254 DOI https://doi.org/10.1016/j.oceaneng.2022.111176 There is increasing awareness about the harmful impact of underwater radiated noise of shipping on the marine environment, with propeller cavitation being a major contributor
PARAMETRIC ROLLING WITH WAVES FROM ASTERN The size of deep sea container ships has increased dramatically over the past decades. The loss of containers and their impact on the marine and coastal environments raised public and politic concerns on the safety and environmental impact of modern container ships. Authorities and industries are urged to evaluate
BLUEWEEK 2022 AFTER MOVIE A warm thank you to all participants of the BlueWeek 2022. Thanks to you, we continue sharing knowledge and creating synergy to create a better future.
