The institute specializes in ocean engineering, at-sea operations, drug discovery and biotechnology from the oceans, coastal ecology and conservation, marine mammal research and conservation, aquaculture and marine education.
An ocean engineering graduate student recently started an experiment measuring the vibration of the tower and examining how it responds to wind force against the rotor.
The institute aims to advance and promote the science and practice of marine engineering, naval engineering, naval architecture, ocean engineering, marine electrics/electronics, control engineering and other associated professions.
The demand for global large-scale ocean engineering equipment, special vessel repair and modification was slump from early 2015 so certain ship repair capacity transferred to conventional market.
They come from a variety of backgrounds: aerospace engineering, ocean engineering, automotive engineering, naval architecture, materials engineering, mechanical engineering, math or physics; to name just a few.
As a result, both centers have engaged in academic and industry partnerships, combining expertise in ocean engineering, marine biotechnology, functional genomics, proteomics, and bioinformatics.
