Two MARIN student projects presented at international conferences papers


After performing their Bachelor projects at and in cooperation with MARIN, two student groups have presented their conclusions at the OMAE and ISOPE conferences.


The first project considered propeller-ice interaction, where the ice was replaced by an alternative material. The influence of ice density and crushing strength on the propeller loads were investigated amongst other factors (ref. papers OMAE2014-23447 and 23448). The second project considered resistance tests in a pre-sawn ice channel, and the ice was again replaced by an alter- native. Based on the Lindqvist formulation a comparison could be made with existing data for similar cases.


MARIN offers a wide selection of papers and doctoral theses in the field of hydrodynamics on its website at www.marin.nl.


The most recent publications include:


Analysis of U-Type Anti-Roll Tanks using URANS. Sensitivity and Validation Kerkvliet, M., Vaz, G., Carette, N., Gunsing, M., OMAE, San Francisco, CA, 2014


Open Day November 8


This year MARIN will again open its doors to the public. From 09.30 until 17.00 hrs on Saturday November 8 over 100 MARIN employees will be ready to introduce you to the world of model testing and hydrody- namics. Throughout the day interactive demonstrations will take place in all the testing facilities. See www.marin.nl/openday for the latest update.

Software Seminar October 2


We are pleased to invite you to the fifth MARIN Software Seminar, which will be held in Hotel “De Nieuwe Wereld” in Wageningen on Thursday, October 2.


This seminar brings developers and users together to share experiences and define future requirements. If you have used MARIN’s software or are considering using it, we would like to meet you and welcome your feedback and input. The seminar will cover:


Hydrodynamic ship design 3D modeler Rhinoceros and its MARIN plugins, Geometry & CFD, Fast Displace- ment Ships , Use of FDS software


4 report


Offshore engineering aNySIM as versatile hydrodynamics engi- neering tool, aNySIM in every day practice


Simulation and training Fast simulation software SHIPMA 7 released, Practical everyday use of SHIPMA, e-Dolphin as engineering and interactive simulation environment


Presentations will be given by MARIN experts and guest speakers.
