Examples of potential initial projects

Projects

New knowledge will be developed by projects relating to ships and ocean structures. This section contains example projects, say, for the first 3 years. Each project may include several subprojects e.g. in terms of doctoral theses tasks. In most of the projects listed all three core disciplines will be involved. Different projects are thematically coupled. The research process will be organized and managed to create the interdisciplinary process and cross-fertilization between projects.

Key personnel and project manager for each project will normally be selected among those listed alphabetically below. Clock on the 'Personnel' link for contact information to the managers.
