Following the popularity of MARIN’s hydrodynamics courses, we have decided to launch a new course. Ship Hydrodynamics II will be held at our headquarters in Wageningen, November 2-6, 2009 (5 days).
Ship Hydrodynamics II
Nowadays, ship design has become a hi–tech industry in which many complex calculation and testing methods are used to obtain the best result. For the modern naval architect it is important to know how these techniques work, to be able to ask the correct questions to their suppliers and to advocate the merits to clients. The advantages but also the limitations of CFD methods will be discussed. Other topics include the choice of the propulsor and its integration to the hull, interaction between propulsor and hull, propeller cavitation and erosion risk, propeller-induced hull pressure fluctuations and energy saving measures.
The course is intended for the more experienced naval architect. Although recommended, it is not necessary to have attended the Ship Hydrodynamics I course.

Applied Hydrodynamics of Floating Offshore Structures
MARIN will also again organise the Applied Hydrodynamics of Floating Offshore Structures in Houston. This gives an overview of the latest developments, such as extreme metocean conditions, motion analysis and wave impact.

Courses March 2009
This month two courses are held in Wageningen: Hydrodynamics of Floating Offshore Structure (March 9 - 13, 2009) and 'Ship Hydrodynamics I' (March 23 - 27, 2009). Both courses are still popular and fully booked, but will be organised again in spring 2010.
