Natural gas is a kind of low-carbon energy source with abundant reserves globally and high calorific value. It is cleaner and more efficient than oil and coal. Enlarging the utilization of natural gas is also one of the important ways to reduce carbo...

Mental workload has become an important factor affecting the human error of ship operators. Controlling the mental workload of operators within a reasonable range can reduce human errors. The purpose of this study is to develop an evaluation method t...

The present study aims to investigate the scale effects of the open water propeller performance using computational fluid dynamics (CFD). The results are presented for the propeller which was previously 3D scanned and digitized. The results obtained...

Ship Route Prediction (SRP) is an algorithm that allows assessing the future position of a ship using historical data, extracted from AIS messages. In an SRP task, it is very important to select the set of input features, used to train the model. In...

The effects of yaw angle on wake characteristics of a stationary square cylinder were investigated in terms of the hydrodynamic forces, the vortex shedding frequency, and the vortical structures using direct numerical simulations (DNS) at a Reynolds...

Propeller modeling in virtual captive model tests is crucial to the prediction accuracy of ship maneuvering motion. In the present study, the Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) method with two propeller modeling methods, Sliding Mesh (SM) and Multipl...

Flapping-foil thrusters are systems that operate at a substantially lower frequency compared with marine propellers and are characterized by a much smaller power concentration. These biomimetic devices are able to operate very efficiently, offering d...

The paper discusses the problem of localizing zones of high pore pressure in sub-bottom sediments (first tens of meters under the seafloor). Prediction of the overpressure zones in the near-surface is required for the mitigation of risks at the early...

This study reports on the numerical analysis of the impact of mass ratio on the Vortex-Induced Vibration (VIV) phenomenon of an elastically rigid cylinder, oscillating freely in a crossflow direction. Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes (RANS) equa...

The good performance of the port activities in terminals is mainly conditioned by the dynamic response of the moored ship system at a berth. An adequate definition of the highly multivariate processes involved in the response of a moored ship at a be...
