Realisation and Demonstration of Advanced Material Solutions for Sustainable and Efficient Ships [RAMSSES] Frank Roland, Dr, Managing Director, Center of Maritime Technologies e. V. (CMT)

RAMSSES Challenge and Objectives

•

Innovative materials bear potentials for better, more cost efficient, safer and greener products;

•

But need to be adapted to maritime needs: complex one-off products, cost pressure, global process chains, safety and regulations, extreme and sensitive environments;

•

Complex challenges require comprehensive approach: -

•

variety of materials and combinations; production processes, supply chain integration, business models; comprehensive assessment and knowledge management; autonomous business solutions vs. sectorial skills

Three main objectives: DEVELOP …

Maritime products and processes

VALIDATE …

Technical and LC Feasibility

INTEGRATE and COOPERATE …

Improve Innovation Capability
