Ettema, Bart (author)The yacht building industry is considered an industry with a high environmental impact. Until now, the focus has not been on the impact regarding business processes of the building phase and the excess in resources that are used, ultimately not adding value to the final product. Due to emerging trends in regulations, new sustainable production...master thesis 2021

Broersma, Cedric (author)Container liner shipping organisations facilitate trade between all regions globally by deploying vessels in a network with a corresponding sailing schedule. Since the container shipping network is part of a larger network, it is favourable for the continuation of the supply chain to maintain this schedule. Although the importance of the...master thesis 2021

Bakker, Michael (author)Design decisions which are made in the preliminary ship design phase have a significant influence on the performance and total cost of a ship. These design decisions are mostly made with very little knowledge of the ship design problem. In fact, it is the personal experience of the naval architect which plays a significant role in this phase of...master thesis 2021

van der Bos, Jelle (author)In recent years, ships are expected to improve energy efficiency and reduce carbon emissions. For naval vessels, it is important to be able to maintain their mission profile. It is therefore required to provide real-time advice to the ship’s crew on the optimal speed and propulsion mode settings that include the actual environmental conditions....master thesis 2021

Rozendaal, Jelger (author)To support Van Oord’s path towards a low-emission future fleet, this thesis has focused on the technical, environmental and economic impact of a methanol hybrid power plant design for new-build offshore working vessels (OWVs). These Dynamic-Positioning (DP) vessels are known for their large and dynamic power plants and have to limit their NOx...master thesis 2021

Boertz, Clemens (author)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...master thesis 2020

Uva, Pietro (author)The constant pressure on the maritime sector to reduce Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions has led the shipping industry to search for alternatives, such as zero-emissions propulsion systems, which would allow meeting the 2050 target imposed by International Maritime Organization (IMO) regulation. Fuel cells have demonstrated to substantially...master thesis 2020

Boekhout, Martijn (author)The shipping industry has a notable share in global greenhouse gas emissions and other pollutants such as sulphur and nitrogen oxides. Fuel cells and batteries are identified as relatively new technologies for shipping with high potential and hydrogen is also considered as one of the most promising sustainable fuels, especially for smaller...master thesis 2020

Kuo, Ting-Kai (author)During the energy transition, a wind-assisted ship propulsion system has the potential for increasing energy efficiency according to the ship’s EEDI (Energy Efficiency Design Index) in the short term. However, it would not only make the diesel engine run in off-design condition, but its dynamic behavior due to time-varying wind and waves is...master thesis 2020

van Diessen, Martijn (author)Naval ships need to be able to conduct missions in a variety of circumstances. This includes the ability to fulfil specific tasks in a damaged state. Vulnerability reduction measures are taken during the early stage distributed ship system design process, to ensure the availability of the required systems in damaged state. Traditionally these...master thesis 2020

Muhammad Fareza, Reza (author)The shipbuilding industry is not a standalone industry. It integrates with the shipping market, and therefore one characteristic of the shipbuilding industry is complexity. Competitiveness is a multi-dimensional concept that can be measured in numerous ways. The author found that these multi-dimensional concepts can better be translated into...master thesis 2020

Kan, Klaas (author)The global warming led to the development of the IMO strategy to reduce the emission of greenhouse gasses for international shipping. The increasing environmental regulation from both international and local governing bodies will ensure to limit accessibility to operational areas with current power plant configurations. These restrictions also...master thesis 2020

Zwart, Robert (author)Trim optimization is an approach considered by the industry to improve the energy efficiency of ships, having a potential in both reducing operational costs and to decrease the emissions of the ship. Potential fuel consumption reduction by trim optimization is 0.5 to 3 % and to up to 7% in extreme cases. Stolt Tankers, a shipping company active...master thesis 2020

Moussault, Sietske (author)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...master thesis 2020

van der Weg, Hedde (author)Traceability in complex ship design involves keeping track of the evolving relations between need, requirements and design. Such traceability is not fully developed in the current design process at DMO due to divisions in the design process and between design tools. This thesis proposes to use a single information model to facilitate...master thesis 2020

Elmazi, Enri (author)The maritime sector is important for the facilitation and growth of global trade. Currently, about 90% of the goods are transported by ships and as a result, the number of ships has risen, increasing the emissions related to shipping. Pollution caused by exhaust gas, especially the sulphur oxide emission, from marine diesel engines has become a...master thesis 2020
