ClassNK plots its research route to 2022

摘要

The Roadmap details how research into core technologies will in turn influence how it develops its human resources going forward. Four focus areas have been identified: 'Rule Development', 'Survey Technology Innovation', 'Marine Environment Protection and Revolutionary Technology Development'. These, the publicity states, "will develop improved technical rules in terms of rationality and transparency, revolutionise survey processes with the development of robotics instruments of surveys..., investigate and research into developing new solutions for environmental regulations utilising its global network and develop maritime technology innovation through digitalisation". This 'foundational R&D', combined with the utilisation of damage information for the purposes of damage prevention, will dictate ClassNK's research philosophy.
