We are pleased to invite you to attend our eighth meeting for the 2017-2018 season, during which Dr. Vasileios Tsarsitalidis, Ship Performance Engineer at Vector Marine Software, will speak on the subject of:
“Ship Performance and Condition Monitoring;
ISO19030, TMSA3 and Beyond…”
The pursuit for increased performance, coupled with the ever-stringent regulatory framework, drive the market for the implementation of new technologies and advanced approaches. The solutions proposed by most key players maintain the goal of energy efficient operation and of switching from fixed period maintenance to an "as needed" basis, but with diverse approaches. The introduction of ISO19030 started an attempt to “level the field” by standardizing the methods of acquiring, filtering and processing data, and building reference models. In the same spirit, TMSA3 requires (among others) very similar monitoring and analysis. In this presentation the structure and methods in hand will be presented, along with their advantages and extra capabilities using real data and examples. Attention will also be drawn to the potential errors caused by sensitivity to assumptions, baseline models and plain adherence to compliance. The status of new technologies both in sensors and methods will also be presented.
Date and location for our meeting are:
Date : Wednesday, 23rd May (change of day!)
Time : 7.00 pm
Location : The auditorium of Maran and Alpha Tankers
354 Syngrou Ave. (building before the Onassion Hospital) Kallithea, Athens
After the meeting hors d’oeuvres, wine, soft drinks, etc. will be served.
Participation is FREE for professional and student members, 5 euros for non-member students and 10 euros for non-member professionals. Participation fees will be paid at the entrance prior to the start of the meeting.
We look forward to seeing you on May 23!
Very truly yours,
for the SNAME Greek Section
