Found on YouTube. Created by "ISSIMS - Innovative Ship Simulation". Originally published on 2021-10-19.

This video is an extract of some elements from my lectures on "Simulation" as part of the seminars provided by the IALA World Wide Academy on the use of the "IALA Toolbox for Port & Waterway Risk Management". Within these seminars the software tools IWRAP, PAWSA / SIRA and the method of Simulation is introduced – specifically my part is the lecture on simulation seen as dynamic process: Normally in the seminars it takes 5-6 hours, but in this video, I can only present a small overview! It shows also two samples to indicate what can be done to use simulation from two perspectives, i.e. from a waterway administration and from a shipping company.
Simulation methods shown comprise Ship Handling and VTS Simulation as well as the specific Fast Time Simulation using SAMMON software.
But to explain what simulation is I tried to widen the horizon from maritime samples to theatre drama and human brain activities up to thinking about the big bang!
And finally, I tried to sum up all methods shown in some funny songs about simulation – I do hope it is enjoying!

Video How Ship Anchor Works? - Procedure For Anchoring a Ship at Sea

published on 11 July 2020

#Anchor #shipanchor #windlass Anchoring is one of the very frequent operations onboard ships. A number of variables and external factors influence the duration and location of an anchoring operation. While the type of seabed is of utmost importance during anchoring, soft muddy grounds or clay bottoms are best preferred. It should be taken care that the anchoring bottom is free of power lines, submarine cables, pipelines or rocks. Various methods on anchoring include consideration of...

Video Introduction to Pilotage

published on 6 January 2021

Pilotage is being able to navigate safely into and out of a harbour/anchorage/port knowing where you are at all times, where your hazards are and a safe route in/out. This is particularly useful if you are heading into somewhere new or a challenging/busy area – or both!

Article Psychophysical stress and strain of maritime pilots in Germany. A cross-sectional study

published on 12 June 2021

Maritime pilots work in an irregular deployment system (rotation system) with unpredictable work assignments under high levels of physical and mental stress. Fatigue or chronic diseases, e.g. coronary heart disease, peptic ulcers or gastritis can occur as a consequence.
