Joint Operation for Ultra Low Emission Shipping (JOULES)
Start date: Jun 1, 2013, End date: May 31, 2017,
Reducing emissions from shipping has increasingly become a challenge over the last years, both as a counter measure against global climate change and to protect local environments and population from waste, gas emissions and noise.This challenge has been documented both in policy papers, like the Europe 2020 initiative or the Transport White Paper, and in rules and regulations issued by IMO as wel ...

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 ...

HYDRALAB IV More than water; dealing with the complex interaction of water with environmental elements, sediment, structures and ice (HYDRALAB IV)
Start date: Oct 1, 2010, End date: Sep 30, 2014,
The co-ordinated and integrated approach of HYDRALAB aims at structuring the access to unique and costly hydraulic and ice engineering research infrastructures in the European Research Area. The network of HYDRALAB is unique in the hydraulic research community and has large experience in co-operating since its start in 1997. It began by informing and co-ordinating the activities of the partners in ...

SAFETY OF WINTER NAVIGATION IN DYNAMIC ICE (SAFEWIN)
Start date: Sep 1, 2009, End date: Aug 31, 2013,
"The present projectaims to develope – an efficient ice compression and ice dynamics forecasting system – which is precisely aimed in increasing the safety of winter navigation in dynamic ice conditions. This system is particularly efficient in case of large, AFRAMAX size or larger, oil tankers navigating in the Baltic, Okhotsk Sea and also in the western Russian Arctic. These tankers include a la ...
