The Royal Institution of Naval Architects
INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON INNOVATION
IN HIGH SPEED CRAFT
29-30 September 2010, London, UK
First Announcement & Call for Papers
Few sectors of the maritime industry have embraced innovation as readily and successfully as
the high speed marine vessels sector, in seeking to extend operating envelopes, reduce downtime
and increase reliability, safety and comfort, and reduce costs. Advanced design, the use of
new materials and more efficient production methods and other means have and are all being
explored to achieve these aims for commercial, military and recreational vessels.
This conference continues a sucessful series of events the Institution has run on high speed craft.
It will provide an opportunity for all those involved with this sector of the maritime industry to
present and discuss recent and future developments in all these aspects of commercial, military
and recreational high speed vessels.
Technical papers are invited containing new and original ideas, innovative applications and
practical achievements in various aspects of high speed marine vessels, including but not limited
to the following topics:
• Design & Construction: including monohulls, multihulls, and special craft such as
SWATH and hydrofoils.
• Materials and manufacturing processes
• Research & Development: Including model testing, hydrodynamics and structural response.
• Operations: including wake and wash implications, motion control, seakeeping and human
factors.
• Safety, Regulation and Classification
• Equipment
• Propulsion
• Operational Limits
• Damage stability
