Application of Digital Twins in the design and production of green autonomous vessels

This task 1.4 aims to provide a comprehensive methodology covering the application of Digital Twins in the design and production of new green autonomous vessels. To achieve this, this task with leverage existing work at Delft University of Technology on green shipping concepts, ship layout, power, propulsion, and auxiliary systems modeling. This task will also extend knowledge from various public research projects. The Research Lab of Autonomous Shipping at Delft University of Technology will contribute to sensing technology modelling, monitoring, measurement, and control of new ship designs for green shipping operations. Finally a modelling framework for intelligent shipbuilding will be created covering all aspects of the ship lifetime, such as design, production, management, and service.
