Kooij, Egbert (author)
The need for relating stakeholders with requirements and the need for systems modeling are the main drivers for this thesis. Relating stakeholders with requirements is beneficial in order to balance the interests of all stakeholders associated with complex design projects. The variability in types of stakeholders and information abundance in...

The current global fleet is still dependent on conventional fuels as energy source to transport goods to various places in the world. These conventional fuels, such as MGO or HFO, emit large amounts of greenhouse gasses and other pollutant emissions. Regulation concerning these emissions becomes stricter every day, therefore institutions and...

The accessibility in far offshore wind farms during unplanned maintenance is reported to be insufficient. This system largely consists of daughter craft, small vessels that increase the multitasking capabilities of an SOV. The goal of this research is to improve the accessibility to ultimately increase turbine availability, which is proven in...

Superyachts are expected to be perfect since the owner pays millions for them, and the worst that could happen is tilting the ship once it floats. The lightweight, including the center of gravity, is essential to know with a high degree of certainty to prevent this. However, the lightweight is already expected in an early design phase, when...

Distribution system robustness estimation is crucial in performing a substantiated trade-off in early-stage ship design. To improve the current robustness estimation, a maritime robustness approach (de Vos, 2018) is compared to and verified by a general network robustness approach (Van Mieghem, 2010). The first studied approach is verified by...

The urgent development of green energy has become a worldwide trend in the war against the threat of global warming and the impact of extreme weather. The offshore wind farm is one of the solutions that are able to harvest energy sustainably from the environment. To erect these offshore windfarms, the debate about whether a new fleet should be...

The diffuser stern is part of a design concept from Damen and the TU delft: the interceptor diffuser. This concept aims to improve the seakeeping behavior of fast ships in waves. With PIV measurements, a contribution to the development of the diffuser stern is made. The flow acceleration and detachment are studied, and a comparison with a CFD...

This study aims to provide a proof of concept of a plug-in hybrid electric superyacht. In this way, the yachting industry can help reduce carbon emissions worldwide and potentially increase comfort levels. The concept takes advantage of the typical operating profile of a yacht. A statistical analysis is performed to discretise this and obtain...

The global temperature is rising as a consequence of the climate change. In order to stop the further increase of the global temperature, the international community has decided to aim at reducing global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in the near future. To achieve this ambition, various alternatives in shipping need to be explored including...

Superyachts are large emitters of greenhouse gases, as well as other emissions such as NO<sub>x</sub>, SO<sub>x</sub> and PM. In order to meet the climate goals set by the IMO, to reduce GHG emissions by 50% in 2050, alternative fuels are being investigated. Methanol is an alternative fuels with great potential. Methanol can be produced...

The present research performed a design exploration of fast ferry catamarans with hard chined demihulls sailing in irregular head waves, to analyse the influence of the demihull shape (without appendages) on wet deck slamming, and identify the geometrical properties and their trends to reduce it. Wet deck slamming is a phenomenon known to cause...

The shipping industry contributes significantly to the global greenhouse gas emissions due to the use of cheap fossil fuels. The booming cruise ship industry is forced to reduce the emitted greenhouse gases and emission of carbon dioxide to be able to access remote areas with higher restrictions and to comply with upcoming regulations. Fuel...

Wind turbine industry is growing and future predictions are promising. However, a shortage of installation vessels could influence this growth in offshore wind industry. Commonly, wind turbines are installed in components using a jack-up vessel. Occasionally, wind turbines are installed fully assembled. The center of gravity of a fully assembled...

<br/>This thesis is done in cooperation with Sime Darby Oils Zwijndrecht (SDOZ). SDOZ is a refinery of vegetable based oils. The goal of this thesis is to optimize the scheduling of the Refined Oil Storage (ROS) of the refinery. This is done because within the company it is suspected that the current way of assigning the tanks, that is...

The current operational cost estimate applied by shipping management companies is insufficiently valid and accurate for determining the operational budget. Most shipping management companies include scheduled maintenance jobs in the operational cost calculation. Scheduled maintenance does not take unforeseen maintenance into account. In...

Recently the interest in hydrofoil vessels using a fully submerged hydrofoil increased. Hydrofoil vessels experience a resistance hump and possible instabilities during their takeoff of which both are influence by waves. In order to determine the required power during the takeoff to overcome the resistance hump and to investigate whether the...

Defects that occur on train sets have to be repaired in a repair location and this has consequences on the transportation network. This paper proposes a decision support model that is developed for optimising the decisions of when and where to repair that defect train set. In practice, there is no clear overview of the effects of such decisions...
