WORKING PAPER ON THE DESIGN OF THE WAGENINGEN F-SERIES The Wageningen F-series Joint Industry Project (JIP) provides a new standard series of fixed-pitch propellers that encompasses the design features of contemporary propellers. The new series were designed for best achievable efficiency, while simultaneously taking into account requirements on cavitation, noise and vibrations. The need for

Today’s landing craft sail faster and faster. So how do you navigate breaking waves for a safe and controlled landing and retreat? Commissioned by the Dutch Ministry of Defence (Ministerie van Defensie), MARIN has built a special test environment in its Offshore Basin to explore the variables for testing amphibious operations: Operation Blue Beach. Sailing
The Horizon 2020 funded Space@Sea project kicked off in November 2017, with the aim of taking a further step towards the efficient use of the maritime environment. The consortium of 17 European partners developed sustainable and affordable workspaces at sea, consisting of standardised and cost efficient modular islands with a low ecological impact. The Space@Sea
Collective input is needed to come to a clear, joint strategy on wind propulsion performance, and rules and regulations. That is why ABS, the International Windship Association (IWSA) an MARIN invite you to join the WASP webinar and WiSP workshop on April 22, 2021. All interested parties (in addition to participants) can join both or

SHIP HYDRODYNAMICS KNOWHOW DERIVED FROM COMPUTATIONAL TOOLS - SOME EXAMPLES This paper discusses how the use of today's computational tools can lead to a quick advance of the field of ship hydrodynamics, by answering long existing questions, indicating simple models and demonstrating design trends. Some examples are given of subjects for which analysis of computational
The path towards zero emission shipping MARIN is actively involved in making Zero Emission Shipping become a reality. The Dutch Maritime Masterplan: lauching customer ships of DMO and Rijksrederij, and commercial ships of the KVNR members Zero emission shipping is top on the agenda of our sector. The paths to get there and the final
POWER THE FUTURE | REGISTRATION NOW OPEN Bringing sustainable energy into production, storage, power and motion The maritime industry will come together again in 2021, with the FPSO JIP Week and the BlueWeek set to be held between May 31-June 4. All activities will be live streamed to reach out to you wherever you are
Cable 1 JIP (2017-2019) was an RVO (Netherlands Enterprise Agency) subsidised research project with the aim of studying the use of a semi-static electrical cable for the power take-off from a floating offshore wind turbine. During the project, a fully operational simulation model was developed for assessing the ultimate life and fatigue life of a
