Siemens Digital Industries Software announced a collaboration with Compute Maritime (CML) to revolutionize ship design and simulation and push the boundaries of generative AI in the ship design industry. The project focuses on connecting Compute Maritime’s flagship platform for vessel design and optimization, NeuralShipper, with Siemens’ Simcenter™ STAR-CCM+™ software for Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) and results validation.

Adopting new fuel types or energy-saving devices can significantly enhance emissions reduction and fuel efficiency. However, existing ships were not originally designed to accommodate such technologies or fuels, limiting the potential for maximum savings. To fully leverage these advances, new ships must be purpose-built to integrate these technologies from the outset.
