Pense, Caner.
International Maritime Organization’s (IMO) e-Navigation concept aims to utilize advanced communication and decision support technologies to increase the overall safety of navigation and prevent maritime accidents while reducing ship emissions, operational costs and workload on the maritime sector; globally. The e-Maritime concept is an e-Navigation vision that is adopted by the European Union (EU) which shares the same aims with the IMO’s e-Navigation concept. However, the EU e-Maritime concept also aims to develop European policies, strategies and capabilities needed to adopt a union-wide, effective and efficient maritime Single Window system that shall increase the profitability and competitiveness by reducing the administrative burden on the European maritime industry. The primary aim of this thesis is to explore the harmonized international co-operation on the development of technologies, standards, strategies and legal frameworks on the road to the actualization of the e-Navigation and e-Maritime concepts. The secondary aim of this thesis is to explore the strategy, technological advancements, infrastructure investments and legal developments regarding e-Navigation and e-Maritime concepts in Turkey. These aims are adopted to provide comprehensive information which can contribute to future research, and up-to-date status of the development and intended future uses of these concepts in order to emphasize their expected benefits and effects on the maritime industry. The methodology of this thesis mainly consists of a multi-disciplinary evaluation of information and knowledge gained from the primary and secondary sources on IMO’s e-Navigation and EU’s e-Maritime concepts, and related developments in Maritime Intelligent Transportation Systems in Turkey.

Investigating the effect of biofouling on propeller characteristics using CFD
Owen, David; Demirel, Yigit Kemal; Oğuz, Elif; Tezdogan, Tahsin; Incecik, Atilla (2018-07-01)
Increasing pressure is being placed on the marine industry to address ship emissions, regulations to govern the efficient operation of ships in the form of the Energy Efficiency Design Index (EEDI) and Energy Efficiency Operation Index (EEOI) have recently come into force. All aspects of ship design and operation that impact the energy efficiency of ships are subject to revaluation. This paper investigates the detrimental effects of biofouling on the performance of Potsdam Propeller Test Case (PPTC) propell...
Life cycle and cost assessment on engine selection for an offshore tug vessel
Oğuz, Elif; Wang, Haibin; Zhou, Peilin (2017-10-11)
The objectives of this paper are to find the most cost effective and environmental friendly engine configuration and its application on an offshore tug vessel in aspects of cost-benefit and environmental impact. This aim was achieved by a comparison of two different engine configurations applicable to the propulsion system for a case ship, which is currently at design stage in a Turkish shipyard. Options of engine selections are to choose either two large medium speed diesel engines or four small high speed...
Options for Delivering Ecosystem-Based Marine Management (ODEMM)
Salihoğlu, Barış(2013-11-30)
The overall aim of the ODEMM project is to develop a set of fully-costed ecosystem management options that would deliver the objectives of the Marine Strategy Framework Directive, the Habitats Directive, the European Commission Blue Book and the Guidelines for the Integrated Approach to Maritime Policy. This will be achieved by: (i) providing a comprehensive knowledge base to support policy for the development of sustainable and integrated management of European marine ecosystems; (ii) developing Operationa...
Prototype Operational Continuity for the GMES Ocean Monitoring and Forecasting Service (MYOCEAN2)
Özsoy, Emin(2014-9-30)
The main objective of the MyOcean2 project will be to operate a rigorous, robust and sustainable Ocean Monitoring and Forecasting component of the GMES Marine Service (OMF/GMS) delivering ocean physical state and ecosystem information to intermediate and downstream users in the areas of marine safety, marine resources, marine and coastal environment and climate, seasonal and weather forecasting. This is highly consistent with the objective of the FP7 Space Work Programme to support a European Space Polic...
