Steller Systems Mentioned in Parliament for Providing Work Experience Placements

Thursday, July 13th, 2023

Steller Systems was very pleased (and surprised!) to be mentioned in parliament on Tuesday during a debate on increasing employment and training.

To quote Siobhan Baillie MP: “A constituent told me today that his daughter had an incredible work placement last week at Steller Systems in Nailsworth. It is a naval architecture company, so that is quite cool. She had a brilliant time learning with the staff in a highly specialist area; they did not need to give their time, but they did, and she will no doubt benefit from that for the rest of her career. We need to normalise those opportunities throughout the country.”

Over the years Steller Systems has provided work experience placements and internships to a number of school, college and university students. We recognise the role we all must play in developing the next generation of engineers and showing them how interesting and rewarding a career in naval architecture and marine engineering can be.

Steller Systems Presenting at UK NEST Artificial Intelligence Conference

Thursday, May 11th, 2023

Steller Systems’ Paul Gliddon will be presenting at the UK NEST Conference on “Achieving Artificial Intelligence at Scale in the Naval Domain” next week. 

Paul will be presenting Steller Systems’ approach to using Artificial Intelligence Deep Learning Technology to find optimal, low drag hull form shapes, focussing on reducing both ship build and operational costs.  Using this approach, millions of shapes of hull forms can be efficiently analysed leading to game-changing resistance reductions. A recent task to optimise a future frigate hull form showed the extent of the potential savings; a 32% reduction in resistance at cruise speed (16 knots) and for the same hull a 22% reduction in resistance at top speed (24 knots).

The conference takes place at the SS Great Britain in Bristol on the 17th May.
