Research Areas
Our Sustainability Research and Application Center has many research areas. And you can find them in detail below.
Sectoral digitalization in maritime is realized through the integration of technologies such as automation, data analytics and artificial intelligence, which accelerate with Industry 4.0. While digital shipyards increase efficiency in shipbuilding processes, smart ships and autonomous systems aim to create a more sustainable and competitive industry by optimizing maritime operations.
Energy management in the maritime sector aims to reduce operational costs and reduce environmental impacts by optimizing fuel consumption. Energy efficiency is achieved through fuel-saving technologies and sustainable operational practices to minimize the carbon emissions of ships.
The net zero target in maritime is a visionary goal developed for sustainable development by minimizing carbon emissions. In this context, it is aimed to achieve a sustainable maritime transportation sector by increasing the use of renewable energy and energy efficiency.
Sustainability of ports aims to provide economic and social benefits while minimizing environmental impacts. Smart port technologies and digitalization also contribute to environmental sustainability by increasing operational efficiency.
Decarbonization in shipping is a strategy that aims to eliminate greenhouse gas emissions by reducing the use of fossil fuels in the sector.
