The Hydrodynamics and Stability section
The Hydrodynamics and Stability section delivers a wide range of consultancy services. We pride ourselves on being world-leading for assessment of hydrodynamic loads and their response for a variety of marine structures. Our tight team helps to ensure the safety of ships and floating offshore structures through stability services, from concept studies through operations, conversions and life extensions. We provide advice related to ship hydrodynamic performance, supporting the required shift in our industry to gradually reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Our services are delivered globally, and we experience a great level of trust from our clients.
We are currently seeking new colleagues who will support service deliveries within one or more of the following areas:
- Ship hydrodynamic performance: Evaluation of the effect of various hydrodynamic measures to reduce vessel emissions, using a combination of simplified methods, computational fluid dynamics and measurements
- Data science: Working with various sources of data, utilizing appropriate analysis methodology to support decision making and generate insights
- Stability: Deterministic and probabilistic intact and damage stability of ships and other floating structures, using NAPA as our main tool
- Wave-structure interaction problems: Use a combination of potential flow methods and computational fluid dynamics to assess local and global loads and their effect on different types of marine structures
What to expect as a Graduate in Maritime Advisory?
Hydrodynamics and Stability offers a strong team that has delivered hundreds of successful projects. We need more capacity, and look very much forward to welcoming enthusiastic, curious, motivated and eager new colleagues. We have a lot to offer as a great place to develop within hydrodynamics and stability. In addition to delivering services, you will support business development, rule development and joint industry projects. We develop, maintain and improve many of our production tools, which means that programming is an important skill and task.
In our section you will work with colleagues across the disciplines and geographies of DNV to develop and deliver projects. You will apply problem-solving skills to develop solutions for our clients. Engineering judgements and practical solutions to problems will be important tasks.
The main responsibilities could include:
- Verification and prediction of vessel performance
- Computational Fluid Dynamics for resistance and propulsion of ships, including effect of energy efficiency measures
- Advice regarding hydrodynamic and aerodynamic means to reduce ship emissions
- Development and application of methodology utilizing on-board measurements to quantify the effect of technical and operational measures to reduce emissions
- Various programming tasks and data analysis tasks in close collaboration with domain experts
- Perform stability calculations according to applicable rules for different vessel types using NAPA
- Stability assessment for various offshore structures
- Support clients in calculation of fatigue and extreme loads on marine structures
