The presentation given by Professor Bucknall will encompass research activities at UCL in the maritime sector with a focus on how ships are likely to be designed in the future so as to take advantage of new technologies, especially autonomy and low carbon technologies.
UCL Marine Research Group is London’s premier maritime research group and one of four internationally renowned university maritime groups in the UK. With seven professors and some 40 researchers it undertakes research into new ship designs with a focus on understanding the likely opportunities of future technologies to ship design and impact of new legislation especially in the field of atmospheric emissions.
The MRG has worked with international partners in the fields of autonomy and low carbon shipping. The presentation will explain these relationships and focus of key areas of interest. Research in autonomous ships has focused primarily on autonomous navigation methods at?‘a(chǎn)lgorithm level’. Research into autonomous ships has focused on coastal cargo vessels. Research into low carbon ships has examined alternative fuels, advanced power and propulsion, and demand side reductions.
Professor Bucknall is the Director of Research at UCL in the Department of Mechanical Engineering and has spent his life working in the marine industry. He holds several major grants, has published over 150 prestigious articles and currently leads a large research team consisting of research lecturers, post-doctoral research assistants and PhD students. He is also the editor in chief of the SCI Journal of Marine Engineering and Technology.

? ?Bucknall教授的報告將重點介紹倫敦大學(xué)學(xué)院(UCL)在海事領(lǐng)域的研究活動,重點關(guān)注未來如何利用新技術(shù)進(jìn)行船舶設(shè)計,特別是自主駕駛和低碳技術(shù)。
? ?UCL海事研究組是倫敦首屈一指的海事研究團隊,也是英國四大國際知名大學(xué)海事團隊之一。UCL海事研究組由7位教授和40位研究人員組成,主要針對新船設(shè)計技術(shù)進(jìn)行研究,重點研究船舶設(shè)計新技術(shù),以及國際減排立法的影響。
UCL海事研究組與自主駕駛以及低碳航運等領(lǐng)域的國際合作伙伴擁有者緊密的合作。本報告將介紹這些合作研究開展情況以及重點研究領(lǐng)域。針對自主駕駛方面的研究,主要集中在“算法級”的沿海貨輪自主導(dǎo)航方法上。針對低碳船舶的研究,主要研究了船舶替代燃料、先進(jìn)動力和推進(jìn)、以及船舶能量系統(tǒng)需求側(cè)的節(jié)能減排方法。
