Geometry-Based Metrics for Early-Stage Hull-Form Producibility Screening

Andrea Serani, Kevin Maki

This paper presents a representation-aware framework for geometry-based screening of hull-form producibility at early design stages. The proposed signature combines dimensionless t…

A nonlinear extension of parametric model embedding for dimensionality reduction in parametric shape design

Andrea Serani, Giorgio Palma, Matteo Diez

Dimensionality reduction is essential in simulation-based shape design, where high-dimensional parameterizations hinder optimization, surrogate modeling, and systematic design-spac…

A Machine Learning Enabled MDO for Bio-Inspired Autonomous Underwater Gliders

Andrea Serani, Giorgio Palma, Jeroen Wackers +1

The preliminary design of AUGs is intrinsically challenging due to the strong coupling between the external hydrodynamic shape, the hydrostatic balance, the structural integrity, a…

Data-driven uncertainty-aware seakeeping prediction of the Delft 372 catamaran using ensemble Hankel dynamic mode decomposition

Giorgio Palma, Andrea Serani, Matteo Diez

In this study, we present and validate an ensemble-based Hankel Dynamic Mode Decomposition with control (HDMDc) for uncertainty-aware seakeeping predictions of a high-speed catamar…
