Achieve QUieter Oceans by shipping noise footprint reduction (AQUO)
Start date: Oct 1, 2012, End date: Sep 30, 2015,
Recent directives outline the need to mitigate underwater noise footprint due to shipping, to prevent negative consequences to marine life. In that context, the final goal of AQUO project is to provide to policy makers practical guidelines, acceptable by shipyards and ship owners. The list of solutions will be split into solutions regarding ship design (including propeller and cavitation noise), a ...

Breakthrough in European Ship and Shipbuilding Technologies (BESST)
Start date: Sep 1, 2009, End date: Feb 28, 2013,
"Initiated by EUROYARDS, BESST aims to achieve a breakthrough in competitiveness, environmentally friendliness and safety of EU built ships. Focusing on passenger ships, ferries and mega-yachts, the results will to a large extend be applicable also to other ships. A holistic life cycle performance assessment on ship level will guide the technical developments on system level, clustered in System G ...

Ships oriented Innovative soLutions to rEduce Noise & Vibrations (SILENV)
Start date: Oct 1, 2009, End date: Nov 30, 2012,
"Transports are well known to be major contributors to noise pollution. Noise and vibrations (N&V) abatement naturally appears as an important objective for in the greening of surface transports.The SILENV project is a response to this requirement for the maritime domain.The consequences of N&V emissions from the ships are multiple. N&V emissions constitute a disturbance for both passengers and ha ...
