The XI International Conference on Computational Methods in Marine Engineering (MARINE 2025) will take place from 23 to 27 June 2025 in the historic city of Edinburgh, Scotland. As part of this prestigious event, a dedicated Invited Session (IS) on CFD Methods for Self-Propulsion and Manoeuvring is being organized by Benedetto di Paolo and Paolo Geremia of ENGYS.
This session aims to bring together researchers, professionals, and experts to discuss cutting-edge advancements in computational fluid dynamics (CFD) applied to ship hydrodynamics.
Key Topics of the Session
- Self-Propulsion: Analysis of hull-propeller interactions, including the modeling of Energy Saving Devices (ESDs) like pre-swirl devices and Propeller Boss Cap Fins (PBCF) to optimize performance and predict power requirements. This also includes investigations into aerodynamic and hydrodynamic interactions, such as Wind Assisted Ship Propulsion (WASP) and similar technologies to enhance vessel efficiency.
- Ship Manoeuvring: Advanced CFD methodologies for free-running and forced motion tests, covering rudder and propeller modeling, as well as hydrodynamic force prediction through data-driven approaches.
Abstract Submission
Abstracts are now being accepted for this Invited Session, with a deadline set for 15 December 2024. Researchers and professionals are encouraged to share their latest findings and insights to foster collaboration and innovation within the marine engineering community.
Please submit your abstract at the event’s page.
