Autonomous Ships 2024

Organised by

Royal Institution of Naval Architects
&
Danish Society of Engineers (IDA Maritine)


20-21 Nov 2024, Copenhagen
https://rina.org.uk/events/events-programme/autonomous-ships-2024/

About the Conference

The rapid technological development in the field of Maritime Autonomy is creating an opportunity for the marine industry as well as a challenge for the regulatory framework. In recent years, various ships projects involving coastal and ocean-going routes with different degrees of autonomy are being tested. Those will have great implications for naval architects, shipbuilders, shipping companies, and maritime systems providers.


INEC/iSCSS 2024

Organised by

The Institute of Marine Engineering, Science and Technology (IMarEST)
 

5-7 Nov, at the Spaces at The Spine, Liverpool, UK
https://www.imarest.org/events/inec-iscss-24.html

About INEC/iSCSS 2024

Now in it's 17th iteration, INEC/iSCSS brings together key stakeholders from across industry, academia and government, providing a platform to share ideas for the designers, engineers and researchers who plan, build, operate, maintain and recycle maritime assets.In 2024, over 300 people from 25 countries will gather in Liverpool for three packed days of discussions, networking and inspiring conversations that will showcase our excellence in the global arena.

Our community coming together has never been more important as we face both digital and green transitions in our society. These challenges increasingly lead to complex ship power systems and bring with it opportunities to develop crew skills through new technologies.

Energy transition, automation, and resilience of inland and coastal shipping

A lecture by Igor Bačkalov

Organised by

Society of Naval Architects of Serbia (SNAS)

3 Jun 2024, 6:30 - 9 pm (CET), at the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, Belgrade, Serbia
https://brodogradnja.org/category/meetings/

About the lecture

DST (Development Centre for Ship Technology and Transport Systems) is a research institute located in Duisburg, Germany. DST is focused on inland and coastal shipping and specialized in shallow water hydrodynamics. The lecture presents a selection of the research projects conducted at DST dealing with the most important topics in inland and coastal shipping at the moment: energy transition, automation, and resilience.

KNVTS ship of the Year Award 2024

Every year, the KNVTS presents the ‘Ship of the Year Award’ and associated challenge trophy. This prestigious award goes to a ship designed and (largely) completed in the Netherlands that is particularly innovative in technical terms. With this award, we promote technical progress and reward the courage to experiment with new developments.

Nominations may be made at https://maritime-awards.nl/nomineren/maritime-ship-of-the-year-award/
