Come and meet MARIN again at the Monaco Yacht Show 2017. Visit us at stand Dars Sud QS68 to discuss the research we are carrying out for the yachting industry.

We are pleased to invite you to the seminar ‘The Future of Maritime Safety’ which will be held on October 6, in the campus of Singapore Polytechnic (MI@ SP) at LT1A. Currently, maritime research has been hovering around the following main focal points: Data Analysis, Autonomous Systems, Smart/Innovative Infrastructure as well as Safety. These will

MARIN wishes you happy holidays and an inspiring 2018! Due to the holidays the MARIN office will be closed from December 25 to January 5. The SSSRI-MARIN office is open in this period.  

Since 2004, supercomputer growth has been constrained by energy efficiency rather than raw hardware speeds. To maintain exponential growth of overall computing power, a massive growth in parallelization is under way. To keep up with these changes, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) must improve its strong scalability—its ability to handle lower cells-per-core ratios and achieve finer-grain

GROW: Growth through Research, development & demonstration in Offshore Wind GROW is a consortium of around 20 leading and committed partners focussing on knowledge exchange and intense cooperation within the offshore wind sector. They work together to reduce the costs of offshore wind and to increase the value in the energy system and ecosystem. GROW was

On the afternoon of November 13, 2017, Mr. Wang Yuhang, Executive Vice President of COSCO SHIPPING, met with Dr. Bas Buchner, President of MARIN. The two sides shared their views on simulations of the navigation of vessels, the renewable energy for ship usage and the prediction of offshore marine engineering market. General Managers of Technology

From November 27 until December 1 the CRS (Cooperative Research Ships) will meet again in Wageningen. The Winter Working Group meetings will take place November 27-29, the Annual General Meeting is organised on November 30 and December 1.During the CRS Annual General Meeting the work program carried out in 2017 is discussed and the final

When considering stationary measurements, the finite length of any practical measurement imposes a random uncertainty component to statistical quantities being researched. In other words, repeating the same experiment will result in a slightly different answer. This happens for example when the limiting factor is facility length (e.g. performing resistance measurements in a towing tank) or

A consortium of companies, governments and knowledge institutions known as Deltares and MARIN are working with team AkzoNobel to try to improve the team’s performance in wind and waves during the Volvo Ocean Race 2017-2018. An example of how Dutch research and top sports can work together, the project links the challenging Volvo Ocean Race
