Almost all of us, even unknowingly, use technological products based on Euler's mathematical applications every day or, in school education, have encountered his formulas and proofs. However, much of his initial inspirations came from the unexpected and illuminating naval experiences, pushed first by the Prussian monarch Frederick II and then by the Tsarina Catherine II, to improve their...
The quest for stability and speed in naval constructions has always attracted naval designers for both military and civil applications in the hyper-fast ferry segment; naturally the measures are not irrelevant and the evolution has led to tonnages and dimensions converging towards specific compromise values between speed, stability, strength, seakeeping, payload and comfort. These elements...
ITA Navy has started a new program for the acquisition of a Naval Vessel called SDO-SuRS (Special and Diving Operation – Submarine Rescue Ship).
In order to fulfill operational requirements, IT Navy has recently procured the so-called “SDO-SuRS Deployable Assets”. A temporary business grouping (RTI) between SAIPEM Spa (leader in robotics and offshore) and DRASS Srl (national excellence in the...
The future of transportation means is quickly moving towards green solutions in order to reduce the emission of COx and SOx firstly and, secondly, to progressively abandon the fossil fuels. In this perspective, alternative propulsion such as fully electric engine, biofuels, hydrogen, LNG are now largely used in the automotive field and for mass transportation means. The naval field is now...
The design of the environment of a yacht or a ship must consider, among the many variables, the guest's experience and focus on its optimization; this means observing the modalities of interaction with the space and the objects that occupy it, acquiring the necessary information and, when possible, building a model capable of predicting, within a reasonable limit, the modalities of the...
