Energy-saving devices for ships have become a subject of intensive research and development in recent times, aiming at reducing fuel consumption and emissions and contributing to Blue Growth. The speakers' presentations detailed Energy Saving Devices for Ships With Emphasis to Biomimetic Devices Exploited for Augmenting Ship Propulsion in Waves, Numerical and Experimental Investigation of the Performance of Dynamic Wings Arranged at the Bow of the Ship and Evaluation of Bow Foils on Ship Delivered Power in Waves Using Model Tests. The presentations were followed by a Q&A and a discussion, moderated by the Chair. The webinar was offered via Zoom and required registration to attend. The full recording can be found here on Sciforum website.
