We are currently seeing lots of interest in using HullTune® to optimise hulls for new-build commercial applications, but have you thought about retrofitting a more efficient bow to your existing ship? Shipping operators are increasingly operating at lower speeds and lower displacements than their hulls were initially designed for, and retrofitting a more efficient bow shape can pay for itself within a short period of time as well as reduce GHG emissions.
Keep an eye out for one of our technical papers on the topic of operational profiles coming out soon.
Get in touch if you would like to discuss how HullTune® by Steller Systems can optimise your new or existing hull design to your unique operational profile.
It’s been three weeks since the Combined Naval Event 2024 and here at Steller Systems Ltd. we’ve been busy following up on all the great meetings held and new contacts made.
The event was a resounding success, highlighted by the unveiling of FEARLESS, our concept to propose an innovative approach to the features of the Multi-Role Support Ship. It was a pleasure to guide attendees through the design, sparking engaging and thought-provoking technical discussions around its key features and CONOPs.
Additionally, we showcased our 19m Offshore Insertion Craft, offering visitors an immersive experience through our VR capabilities and demonstrating recent trials with a scale functioning model.
While our designs garnered most of the attention, our core strength lies in being a naval architecture and marine engineering consultancy. We love to solve complex technical challenges, big and small, leveraging our extensive expertise and creative problem-solving skills. Please get in touch to find out how we can support your project.
It’s the final day of the Combined Naval Event 2024. We have been pleased to welcome so many distinguished guests to our stand, including our valued customers, partners and suppliers.
If you would like to hear more about our ground-breaking technologies in naval damage control, launch and recovery, and AI-optimised ship design, or how Steller Systems can support your programmes with naval architecture and marine engineering support, then please visit our stand or get in touch.
Particular highlights have been discussions around the requirements for future warships and our concept design for littoral strike ship FEARLESS, as well as being able to walk people through our designs using VR.
The Navy Leaders Combined Naval Event 2024 kicks off today in Farnborough. If you’re visiting then please come and meet Steller Systems’ team on stand B06 to talk about our work on uncrewed vessels, combatants, amphibious ships and fast craft, as well as our ground-breaking technologies in naval damage control, launch and recovery, and AI-optimised ship design.
We have also unveiled FEARLESS – our concept for a littoral strike ship. This 170m strike ship is designed to be the ultimate up-threat multi-role combatant, capable of delivering and supporting Commando raiding forces in the littoral whilst also providing protection to raiding forces.
We look forward to welcoming our current and future customers and partners.
