Sammendrag
The SFI Smart Maritime is dedicated to improving energy efficiency and reducing harmful emissions from ships. With particular focus on the Norwegian Maritime Industry, our mission is to provide our partners with technologies, tools and capabilities for effective identification, assessment and verification of performance optimization solutions. The research focus is on technological solutions within hydrodynamics (hull and propellers) and machinery system (energy optimization, exhaust emissions and fuels).
2017 has been an active and productive year at SFI Smart Maritime, with high activity and an increasing number and variety of deliverables. The dialog between the research team and industry participants is very constructive.
Today Smart Maritime works as a relatively important meeting place and cooperation platform within energy efficiency and environment-friendly shipping.In addition, the Centre has served as a springboard for new initiatives and further cooperation.
In 2017 the SFI has focused on maintaining the balance between long-term scientific research and more short-term applied research and value creation for industry partners. Direct and regular cooperation has contributed to a first version of a tool for simulation-based design, but also the use of ship operators’ own fleet as test case or lab.
