The latest edition of MARIN Report magazine is now available, showcasing the newest research and innovations shaping the maritime sector.
This issue brings together a wide range of topics, with a strong focus on sustainability, digitalisation and future operational concepts. Highlighted articles include:
Human‑centred design for safety and efficiency – integrating crew feedback early in the design process.
Expanding simulations with XR – combining hydrodynamics and extended reality to validate designs before construction.
Significant energy savings from self‑propulsion tests – demonstrating efficiency gains through model testing and innovation.
Waddenzee fleet retrofit impacts – analysing the technical and economic implications of large-scale fleet electrification.
Crewed–uncrewed teaming – exploring how simulations and mixed operations are shaping future naval missions.
SYNERGETICS: accelerating green transformation – presenting retrofit solutions to reduce emissions in inland and coastal shipping.
Free RollPeriod app – enabling accurate onboard measurements through digital tools
BlueLabs for sustainability at sea – introducing a new facility supporting research into offshore renewables and sustainable maritime technologies.
Exploring the next tracks in maritime AI innovation – examining how artificial intelligence is advancing maritime operations
Together, these articles underline MARIN’s mission to support cleaner, smarter and safer shipping, and provide insights into the technologies and methods driving the maritime transition.
