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...

There exists no general method for analysing the efficiency of a shipyard layout through the mapping of building processes and employee movements. Therefore an Integrated Method for mapping shipyard layouts is developed. This is done by implementing multiple ways of analysing and optimising industrial processes, as found in the literature. Usage...

With the increasing concerns of the emission of greenhouse gases and other pollutants and the push towards sustainable and greener means of transportation, there is a need for new drive systems running on alternative fuels. One fuel that holds significant potential as a marine fuel for the future is methanol. When produced utilising carbon...

Introduction - Hydrofoils are often used for high-performance craft. They enable the hull to rise out of the water and reduce drag. A recurring problem is ventilation, this is the presence of a cavity filled with ambient air on the lifting surface. Ventilation causes the lift of the hydrofoil to decrease drastically. A lot of research has been...

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...

Currently, the energy transition is a topic for discussion and many organizations are taking measures to reduce the effects of climate change. Armed forces are exempt of these new regulations on the grounds of national security, but some have already started taking steps to reduce the amount of harmful emissions. Due to the high efficiency and...

This research thesis focuses on conducting experimental research into the hydrodynamic properties of a NACA 0012 T-foil in dynamic conditions. An aerodynamically smooth surface was created and used for all dynamic experiments. For exploratory research into the effect of surface finish on the performance of a T-foil in steady state conditions, a...

Progressing targets on GHG emission reduction urge the the Netherlands Ministry of Defense (NL MoD) to reduce the use of fossil fuels, as they announced to contribute to the Paris agreement by reducing its dependency on fossil fuels by at least 70% by the year 2050. However, without sacrificing striking power, because future naval combatants...

The most violent breaking waves cause the largest platform forces at sea, however it is unknown which wave in a sea state leads to these forces if run-up is included. Offshore inspection platforms give access to wind turbine monopiles. They are positioned above mean sea level. Wave interaction with monopiles leading to runup causes vertical...

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 offshore wind market is growing rapidly, and new offshore wind projects are being launched more than ever. To keep up with demand, parts for these wind turbines are being produced all over the world. To get all the parts needed to their destination on time, they must be transported on heavy transport vessels (HTVs).<br/><br/>Today, business...

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...

Due to the growing quest for renewable energy, wind turbines grow in size. This means that higher demands are posed on the transporting structures, also called tower grillages, which brings its challenges for their design. The fact that the structures considered in this thesis are placed on a ship makes the design even more complicated....

Over the last two decades, the size and capacity of (container) vessels calling port at the Port of Rotterdam have increased considerably. To moor these huge and heavy ships safely at the quay, fenders are frequently installed. The present guidelines for the “Design of Fender Systems”, which were established in 2002, are due to be updated in...

Reducing the levelised cost of energy is crucial to accelerating the energy transition. To develop offshore wind solutions in greater water depths, a floating solution is required. The time-domain simulations of these Floating Offshore Wind Turbines (FOWTs) under wind-wave misalignment used in research and industry projects are computationally...

With the introduction of the Energy Efficiency Design Index, concerns have been raised to the survivability of ships with small engine power to maintain manoeuvring capabilities in adverse weather conditions. Therefore, Sui (2021) developed a simulation model from ‘tank to wake’ of a manoeuvring ship in irregular waves to advice a minimum power...

To reduce the climate change impact of shipping and retain compliance with increasingly strict emission regulations, alternative fuels are required. Methanol is expected to be one of the renewable alternatives. However, it evaporates easily compared to for example Diesel and its vapours are toxic and flammable. Regulations prescribe the use of...

The energy transition requires us to explore all options for generating non-fossil energy. Companies are starting to invest in technologies such as offshore floating PV systems (OFPV) to avoid congested urban population centres. OFPV structures are likely to consist of many small, simple, flexibly connected floaters. The entire structure must be...

New vessels need to remain fuel flexible in order to handle the uncertainties of the future regarding the available alternative fuels aiming to lower their environmental impact. On the other hand, it is even more challenging for existing vessels that are not fuel flexible to successfully improve their carbon impact. The current study examines...

The main aim of the master thesis was to create a design tool for the arrangement of the Propulsion, Power and Energy (PPE) systems during the conceptual design stage in cooperation with Maritime Research Institute of Netherlands (MARIN). Within MARIN, a recent and novel methodology known as Model Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) is implemented...
