What's new in the shipyard |
 |
The evolution of nautical
recreation legislation
History of Italian laws
on nautical recreation, starting from the first reforms and
initial disorganization of the sector, up to the latest reforms
and the new Code on nautical recreation
and the implementation of the regulation, of which the speaker
reports the main features.
Dr. ANIELLO RAIOLA
|
|
|
ModeFrontier, a
multi-objective optimization and design environment for Yacht
Design applications |
Optimization in industrial design is a complex and multifaceted
problem, which can be solved by ModeFRONTIER . Three examples
of the use of this software.
Eng. MATTEO LEDRI
|
|
Holistic ergonomics
applied to industrial design |
Use of innovative ergonomic technology for yacht
building
with a penta-sensorial system,
based on
the
human cognitive processes, which adapts to the
user's
specific needs.
Prof.
FRANCO C. GROSSI
|
|
Sail
and motor multihulls in recreational crafts |
Comparison between the design of a motor and a sail
catamaran, with an eye on stability, resistance to motion and
specific characteristics of catamarans.
Eng. ROBERTO PREVER
|
|
Hydrodynamic and technological developments in modern fast
catamarans |
Catamarans hold a prominent position among fast boats because of
the many advantages they offer, despite of their low staying
power. The University of Trieste has designed appendixes in
order to overcome this problem.
Prof.
IGOR ZOTTI
|
|
Characterisation of sail boats aerodynamics through tests in a
Wind Tunnel |
Description of tests on sails performed in wind
tunnel and presentation of the new technology
developed by the author at the Polytechnic of Milan. The technology takes into account
the actual conditions of the boat's trim.
Prof.
FABIO FOSSATI
|
|
Online
service for yacht designers and sailmakers |
A
low cost online service that can be used by medium and small size
firms for the simulation of flows around the ship's bottom,
appendixes
and sails, and
for performance forecasts.
Eng. MAURO POIAN
|
|
The perception of noise
and vibrations on board.
Hints on understanding this phenomenon |
On
recreational boats, the first necessity
is comfort. Optimizing the well being of passengers within the
limits set both by rules and
technical
necessities, in order to minimize noises and vibrations.
Prof. Eng.
MARCO BIOT
Eng.
FRANCESCO DE LORENZO
|
|
Experiences of the application of the infusion technique in the
nautical sector |
In agreement
with the laws for the environment and on
the protection of the workers from chemical risks, the Polytechnic
of Milan suggests the infusion technique, presenting designs and
tests that have been applied to
it.
Arch.
ANDREA RATTI
|
|
Low
environmental impact in composite boat production |
Research looks for a compromise between low
environmental costs and the quality of the product, as a
multidimensional problem.
Eng. ALBERTO CIMADORO
|
|
The development of
velocity prediction software for sail yachts |
Presentation of the development of velocity
prediction programs and of their use, with special
attention
to sail yachts. Varius use of VPP, from a general use
to specific projects.
Dr. DAVIDE BATTISTIN
|
|
Design analysis and
multi-objective structural optimisation of a sailing boat in
composite material by ESAComp – ANSYS - modeFRONTIER integration |
Presentation of two
integrating softwares, ESAComp and ANSYS, for the program
modeFRONTIER and their use in the analysis and planning of a
sailing boat’s hull. With the two softwares, modeFRONTIER
optimizes the planning process in both its objectives and its
constraints.
Eng. VITO PRIMAVERA
FRANCESCO MICCHETTI
|
| Evening
Conference:
From quinqueremi to
liburnae.
Examples
of technological innovation and technology transfer in ancient Rome.
Historical Presentation:
The
development of the art of the fabri navales
begins with the
introduction of the quinqueremi, during the first Punic war, and
stems from the use of the enemy's technology. Similarly, further
innovations are introduced after clashes with pirates and the Liburnians:
after
them the
Romans later
named their war
vessels.

What's new on the market -
specific training |
| New trends in luxury yachting: the
expedition yacht |
Italy is the largest
producer of superyachts and megayachts in the international
market, facing a growing demand for luxury yachts. Concerning
the latest trend, expedition yachts, the Italian industry is
just starting its research. A project of an expedition yacht
that is being developed in Trieste will be presented.

| Cooperation
between the University of Trieste and private enterprises in the
development of leisure boat
design: two recent examples that involved graduating
students |
Cooperation between the
Department for naval engineering, sea and environment
of Trieste University and public and private engineering firms,
by means of works experiences and
internships for graduating students. Presentation of two
experiences, where a sail yacht and a leisure motorboat were
designed.

|
| Training in the nautical field: experiences,
observations, perspectives |
The
growth of the nautical sector requires the
training of
specialized professionals. This need has been
met by the
Polytechnic of Milan and the University of Genoa,
who offer courses that cover all qualifications, from
design to building and marketing.
Prof. SILVIA PIARDI
|
| Recreational boats without barriers |
Design
of boats for disabled people, where a better use of spaces makes
the boat completely accessible to the user.
