Short Abstract:
The course addresses state-of-the-art technologies for digital design and operation of ships and other maritime vessels (such as marine robots). The focus lies not just on establishing a basic understanding of the terminology and fundamentals of technologies forming Industry 5.0 and driving the digital transformation of the maritime world, but also on critical distance, perception of limitations and the often-found differences between the original vision and current state-of-the-art of technologies. Pros and cons of different alternative approaches will sharpen the understanding of where different technologies are most suitable and likely to evolve respectively where research initiatives are expected in the next decades.
Lecture will focus on the state of the art and extrapolate for the foreseeable future. Examples taken from (largely maritime) industry practice illustrate how technologies are used now in state of the art and research frontier applications.
