for single/double skin tankers, verification and documentation of inspection, repairs including single
& double hull tankers, failures/casualties, elements of fatigue, CAS, acceptance criteria by Class, etc.
On May 20 - 21, the training course 'Efficient Maintenance Management' will be held with the
aim of providing an insight in mastery of maintenance management and will assist the participants to
enhance their knowledge on how to improve the quality of their vessel management and how to
reduce operational costs related to maintenance, spare parts and damages.
'Environmental Awareness' is the subject of a third course. To be held May 21, the course will provide
participants with a basic introduction into the nature of environmental impacts associated with
shipping, their causes and effects; present a brief overview of the key environmental regulatory requirements;
provide insight into industry best practice and available preventive and mitigation measures.

The application of numerical simulation tools for assessing the ultimate damage stability of ships
will be addressed at the upcoming meeting of

SNAME Greek Section, May 22. The discussion will
be led by Frans van Walree, project manager in the seakeeping department of Dutch company

MARIN

, which is investigating the ultimate stability of both intact and damaged naval ships within
the Cooperative Research Navies (CRN) group. The CRN group was formed in 1989 to develop
methods to assess the dynamic stability of naval ships, as existing dynamic stability rules are based
on old fashioned hull forms, a more rational methodology was required to apply to modern hull
forms. A time domain simulation tool was developed to investigate the dynamic stability of ships in
extreme waves, for both intact and damaged conditions. A paper by van Walree will summarise the
fundamentals of the simulation tool and focus on its application for non-naval vessels. The evening
presentation will be held in the auditorium of Kristen Navigation, 354 Syngrou Avenue, Kallithea,
Athens and will be followed by a light reception. Participation fee: €5 for members and students and

€

10 for non-members.
