Nollen, Jacco (author)Strict regulations for carbon emissions from ships are introduced by the IMO and the EU. Various emission mitigation measures and low-emission fuel strategies provide solutions to reduce carbon emissions. This paper compares emission mitigation measures and low-emission fuel strategies for short-sea ships, within the constraints of regulatory...master thesis 2023

Minderhoud, Max (author)The maritime industry faces a lot of uncertainty, and the energy transition has only increased this uncertainty. Ships will probably have to be converted to an alternative fuel during their lifetime and methanol seems to be the fuel with the most potential for offshore ships. By preparing for this, Design-for-Conversion to methanol, the costs of...master thesis 2023

Ticheler, Annouk (author)In the global energy transition where the shift from fossil fuels to renewable energy is needed, wind energy is a growing industry. In the offshore wind industry, Service Operation Vessels (SOVs) are needed to operate and maintain wind farms. To reduce the environmental footprint of SOVs at offshore wind farms, the possibility of battery...master thesis 2023

Snaathorst, Andrew (author)This thesis investigates the total environmental impact of various alternative marine energy carriers while taking the powering increase into account due to their disadvantageous spatial requirements compared to conventional fuel. A parametric design tool for bulk carriers, tankers, container ships, and trailing suction hopper dredgers has been...master thesis 2023

Snaathorst, Andrew (author)This paper investigates the spatial requirements of alternative marine energy carriers and their impact on ship design and powering for constant operational requirements. A parametric design tool for bulk carriers, tankers, and container ships has been developed for the predicted future marine energy carriers to determine the main engine brake...student report 2023

van Eesteren Barros, Jaime (author)The increasing concerns over the impacts of the maritime industry on the environment over the last decades has led to the creation of regulations to combat these negatives effects by the International Maritime Organization. Within the yachting industry, there is no consensus on whether these regulations can be fairly applied to yachts and there...master thesis 2022

van der Linden, Nordin (author)Organisations worldwide are decreasing their Greenhouse Gas emissions. The maritime industry is also contributing to this and trying to reduce its emissions but has done this inadequately. Reasons for this are that the required decrease in emissions varies widely between different vessels, many workboats are currently avoiding emissions...master thesis 2022

Delzenne, David (author)Many recycled materials in different industries are traceable. The recycled content is often known in percentages. Steel is a material which gets recycled almost 100%. However it is not common practice to specify the recycled content for steel products. From a sustainability point of view this information can be very valuable. This thesis...master thesis 2022

Smolders, Timothy (author)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...master thesis 2022

Gartland Bonet, Nico (author)The maritime industry has long relied on oils and heavy fuels as main energy carriers. The shipping sector still accounts for an important 2.5% of global greenhouse gas emissions. On top of this, current industry fuels contain high levels of sulfur and release nitrogen oxides upon combustion, which both can be extremely harmful to local...master thesis 2021

Sanchez-Simon del Pino, Claudia (author)Topology Optimization is an optimization problem based on the distribution of material within a design domain under specific load states. The goal of this technology is minimizing a certain function, such as compliance, mass or frequency. <br/>This technology can improve the performance of components in different fields within the shipbuilding...master thesis 2018

Zevenhoven, Tom (author)This research goes into detail about a quantitative performance analysis of a shipyard. This analysis is based on publically available information. The goal is to define the performance of a shipyard and thereby define the place of a shipyard in the market. Differences in performance can be used as learning and developing opportunities.master thesis 2017

Rog, Ellemijn (author)This thesis describes an investigation at IHC Vremac, with the goal to improve the delivery performance, from 69% to 85%, focused on how IHC Vremac should manage and control their complete production process when applying Quick Response Manufacturing (QRM). First, the core concepts of QRM were investigated. If a company wants to apply QRM, they...master thesis 2017

Reiff, E. (author)Recently the buying power of customers has increased as a result of globalisation forcing anufacturers including shipbuilders to produce products with wider variety at lower delivery times. This research aims to optimise the traditional production strategy applied at Damen shipyards for the production of standard tugs. Three levels of...master thesis 2016

De Jonge, W.P.N. (author)This paper describes the development and implementation of a framework that localizes steady-state-monitoring in subcontracted mega-yacht-production processes. The control framework modelling this steady-state based on the Delft Systems Approach, strives for continuously improved project monitoring and is comprises subcontractor management- and...master thesis 2016

Van Oeveren, M.I.J. (author)The Dutch shipbuilding industry has a real competitive force in building complex, specialized and multipurpose vessels (Rabobank, 2014). However, the Dutch maritime sector has to deal with strongly growing competition worldwide. For the dredging sector this implies the need to innovate in order to remain competitive. This research focuses on the...master thesis 2015

Wiskerke, J. (author)This paper aims to improve the execution of complex projects by the development of a functional framework using a systems approach guided by the six steps from the Deweyan Inquiry. Readers unfamiliar with the systems approach I recommend reading the chapters 1,2,4 and 5 of the Delft Systems Approach(Veeke,2008). The developed framework offers a...master thesis 2015
