"Design-for-safety"- safe sea transport
"Design-for-safety - development of a rational method of designing a ship in order to increase the safety of navigation, with particular emphasis on stability and maneuverability" - is a new project on which scientists from the Institute of Ocean Engineering and Ship Technology at Gdańsk University of Technology will work. For the implementation of the project managed by Jakub Montewka, PhD, DSc, Eng. scientists received PLN 498,800 as part of the Aurum program.
Sea transport is particularly vulnerable due to the complex, often unpredictable environment in which it operates. Threats may arise from both deliberate and accidental actions (hydrometeorological, mechanical conditions, etc.). Providing navigational safety, including collision avoidance, is one of the main and most important issues related to the issue of fleet development.

Exploring risk governance and risk perception of Maritime Autonomous Surface Ships: Interpretation and implications
Recently, there has been a significant interest in industry, regulatory, and academic contexts in the prospects of Maritime Autonomous Surface Ships (MASS). Among other things, this topic will be discussed during the lecture by prof. Floris Goerlandt with. The meeting will be held on March 3 in room 616 (Institute of Ocean Engineering and Shipbuilding) at 12:30.
This talk focuses on the role of different societal actors in the decision-making processes concerning the conceptualization, design, and operational implementation of these future vessels. In particular, the introduction of MASS is framed in a risk governance context, with particular attention given to the role of risk perception in societal decision making.
