STAR Center Engineering & Design
Modeling & Research
Development of geographic port/waterway databases and hydrodynamic ship models for port design, channel studies and forensic research.
Description
STAR Center's Modeling & Research department develops computer-generated geographic ports, harbors, rivers and waterways and hydrodynamic ship models for real-time simulation. It maintains a library of U.S. and international geographic databases and hydrodynamic models (tanker, LNG, container, cruise, bulk carrier and more), with an in-house hydrodynamicist for custom ship models. Studies examine new port design, pier or channel modifications, offshore wind and ocean transportation feasibility, and forensic maritime cases; vessels can also be modelled before delivery for crew familiarization.
