Human Factors in Risk-Based Ship Design Methodology (FAROS)

Start date: Oct 1, 2012, End date: Sep 30, 2015,

Up to 96% of maritime accidents (collision, grounding, fire, occupational accidents) are routinely attributed to human error. However, rather than assessing the ship performance in terms of global design factors such as ship motions and noise, the human element studies have primarily focused on local design features (e.g., bridge design) that are relatively easy to fix and tune towards required ef ...

Green Retrofitting of Existing Ships (REFRESH)

Start date: Mar 1, 2012, End date: Feb 28, 2015,

Traditionally, the environmental performance of ships in terms of air emissions has never been among the primary concerns of the maritime industry. However, this situation is bound to change considering that the greening of the transportation sector is imminent and unavoidable. This tendency is manifested with activities ranging from regularly published statistics regarding the air pollution of ge ...
