| CHAIRE ECN#SeakeepingAndSloshing #Marine Bureau Veritas has collaborated with the Ecole Centrale Nantes in the creation of an industry chair to investigate the ships of the future. Our research covers three main aspects: • Ship safety • Interacting bodies and flexible connections • Wave performance |
| ECOPROP#CompositeMaterials #Marine EcoProp is a project being led by TU Delft, focusing on addressing key challenges for composite propellors: • Predicting propellor noise • Designing for optimum performance and reduced noise • Monitoring propellor performance and integrity
The outcomes of EcoProp will help reduce underwater radiated noise (URN) and vibrations and improve the life expectancy of ships. |
| EOLINK#MooringIntegrity #MRE Bureau Veritas has partnered with Eolink on the component certification of their pre-commercial 5MW floating offshore wind turbines. |
| CARGOSAFE#Safety #Marine CARGOSAFE aims to identify cost-effective risk management options for cargo fires onboard container vessels, dealing with fire response and detection and the declaration and segregation of dangerous goods.
