Maritime and Ocean Digital Engineering

The maritime industry is faced with big challenges, including the development of new technologies for decarbonization and their social implementation, the introduction of autonomous vessels to improve the maritime safety and working environment, and ensuring productivity in the design, manufacture, and operation of advanced ship systems, etc. In order to overcome these challenges, it is necessary to strengthen its engineering capability for advanced and complex systems by adopting software technology, known as co-simulation platform.
In this research, we promote various projects e.g., developing a novel concept ship, based on the co-simulation platform together with the companies in the maritime industry. We develop the methodology and tools for model-based design (MBD) and model-based systems engineering (MBSE), and study how to integrate and utilize various domain technologies on the platform. We also conduct research on international rules for the introduction of new systems and strategies for the formation of global maritime clusters.
