Expertise

Weather Routing & Ships Analytics

Physics-based ship modelling (Holtrop–Mennen resistance, propulsion chain, SFOC curves), A* pathfinding with safety constraints (wave height, roll, slamming), and Monte Carlo fuel estimation across ECMWF/GFS scenarios producing P10/P50/P90 distributions. Vessel performance analytics: noon-report calibration, voyage replay, and CII compliance reporting.

Maritime Digitalisation

Practical maritime software grounded in operational experience across crude oil, chemicals, LNG, LPG, containers, and project loads. Active developments include LCS-Mar — a physics-based digital twin of oil/chemical tanker cargo systems modelling inert gas, piping hydraulics, cargo heating, crude-oil washing, and intact stability — alongside passage-planning automation and vessel performance tooling.

Mathematical proofs and formal reasoning

WindMar — Weather & Route Analysis

Grounded in physics. Designed for ship operations.

WindMar combines hydrodynamic modelling, meteorological data, and constrained pathfinding to model routes accounting for hull resistance, propulsion efficiency, and cargo loading under realistic ocean conditions. A reference implementation developed by a Master Mariner for research and education.

  • Global CMEMS/GFS weather layers with wave, wind, current, SST, and ice fields
  • Dual optimization: minimum fuel and minimum time with safety constraints
  • Full passage plan output with waypoints, ETA, and bunker estimates
  • CII compliance scoring for decarbonization reporting
