The HPC-SHEAKS experiment aimed to develop and demonstrate a HPC service for seakeeping assessment using state-of-the-art tools. Moreover, the experiment aimed increase the efficiency of the design, engineering and building processes of a marine structure, by offering to the market added-value tools that can be used further down from the final design phase, and allowing its integration in the design cycle to develop more competitive designs. The ultimate goal was the efficient and easy-to-use integration of available HPC infrastructures with the most advanced seakeeping software (SeaFEM). 

Some of the areas covered include the development and application of computational models in offshore engineering, naval architecture, offshore wind energy, polar and arctic engineering, mechanics of marine structures, wave mechanics, naval hydrodynamics, mooring analysis, marine renewable energy or aquacultural engineering.

The ML-AMAR project has been funded under the 2021 programme Generación de Conocimiento 2021 of the Agencia Estatal de Investigación (project ref. PID2021-126561OB.

The journal welcomes contributions that present high-quality experiments with particular attention to the reproducibility of the results. The papers must have a detailed and complete description of the experimental set-up and should include dispersion or uncertainty assessment information. They should also be completed with the datasets of the presented results in standard editable format.

Papers that focus on validation must involve assessment of computational models through comparison to experiments and should be accompanied by relevant measures of uncertainty from both sources. These papers should also include code verification, i.e. the assurance that code outputs converge to analytical solutions, particularly in terms of the rate of reduction of discretization errors.

The main objective of this research project is the development, implementation, experimental validation and demonstration of a computer calculation tool for the analysis of the navigation of ships in ice. This tool will be specifically design to solve complex multi-phase (ice-water) flow problems with computational times lower than current models. Furthermore, it will be suitable to be applied during the ship design stages.

This work is part of the research project NICESHIP sponsored by the Spanish Ministry of Science and Innovation under Grant RTI2018-094744-B-C21.

The main objective of FIBRE4YARDS project is to maintain European global leadership in ship building and ship maintenance, through implementation of the Shipyard 4.0 concept in which advanced and innovative FRP manufacturing technologies are successfully introduced.

This project has received funding from European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement n° 101006860.

The overall objective of the FIBREGY project is to enable the extensive use of FRP materials in the structure of the next generation of large Offshore Wind and Tidal Power (OWTP) platforms by overcoming the above mentioned challenges. In order to achieve this objective, the project will develop, qualify and audit innovative FRP materials for offshore applications, elaborate new design procedures and guidelines, generate efficient production, inspection and monitoring methodologies, and validate and demonstrate advanced software analysis tools. Clear performance indicators will be designed and applied in the evaluation of two existing OWTP concepts to be re-engineered in FRP within the project. Finally, the different technologies generated in FIBREGY will be demonstrated by using advanced simulation techniques and building a real-scale prototype to validate the materials, tools, solutions, procedures and guidelines to be developed in FIBREGY.

FIBRESHIP intends to fill the various technology and knowledge gaps, and demonstrate the feasibility of using FRP materials in the three vessels categories: light merchant ships, passenger transport and leisure ships and special service vessels.

The project will develop a comprehensive guide covering design issues and approaches within those three categories that will form the basis for future guides and regulations for all ship types. In order to complete this task, representative ships for each category will be designed: a container ship, a ferry and an oceanographic ship.

The goal of the repository is to widely disseminate the results of the research performed at CIMNE, by sharing the preprints or postprints -depending on the article sharing policies of the original publisher- of the papers published in scientific journals by CIMNE's scientists.
