Courses 2016/2017


MARIN will host two new courses at its Wageningen headquarters and in Shanghai.


Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) for Maritime Applications


November 14 - 17, 2016 Wageningen, The Netherlands


This course has been designed to reflect the latest developments in Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) used in ship design, offshore engi- neering and renewable energy appli- cations. The new course will examine how to obtain reliable and accurate CFD results for these applications by looking at application-specific choices and ‘best practice’.


All topics addressed are relevant for the use of any state-of-the-art, viscous-flow CFD codes and to give insight into the validity of your CFD results.


Hydrodynamics in Ship Design


March 29 - 31, 2017 Shanghai, China


This course is intended for both existing professional staff and for newcomers in the maritime industry. Participants should have a Master’s degree (MSc.) in naval architecture, ocean engineering, the equivalent education or experience. The course gives an overview of the latest expe- riences in a broad range of resistance and propulsion topics.

Maritime Week 2016 October 29-November 5


The Maritime Week is a yearly event highlighting the entire Dutch maritime industry, organised by Maritime by Holland. During the Maritime Week all activities are targeted at youth, politics, the general public and of course the maritime industry. The week will kick off with the open house of MARIN on Saturday October 29. www.maritimetechnology.nl/events


Ship design in EU project HOLISHIP


The HSVA-led EU project HOLISHIP has been awarded funding from the European Commission under the Horizon 2020 pro- gramme. In HOLISHIP, MARIN will work on a Virtual Vessel Framework (VVF) together with the German aerospace institute DLR. The VVF will couple simulation models for various disciplines to be able to simulate the complete ship performance. The VVF can be used to demonstrate new innovative concepts without needing to directly build prototypes, which results in much faster developments and market uptake.


The four-year project HOLISHIP is expected to start in the second half of 2016. For more information contact Maarten Flikkema, m.flikkema@marin.nl

Final call: Software Seminar in


Houston October 4


This year MARIN returns to Houston on October 4th for another Software Seminar, which will bring develop- ers and users together to discuss the latest issues, to share experiences and to define future requirements. This edition will spotlight hydrody- namics in ship design, terminal design and operability, operations and practical CFD for the offshore industry. Guest speakers from Chevron, 7 Seas Oil, TAI Engineers and TAM University will present their experiences with MARIN software in daily practice.


If you have used MARIN’s software in the past or are considering it in the future please join us at the Omni Houston Hotel at Westside on October 4. Visit www.marin.nl/Soft- wareSeminar for more information and registration.
