“…Nowadays, as in the industry, there is a very strong trend in the naval sector towards digitization [ 9 ]. From an operational point of view, warships tend to install this type of technology because of the advantages they bring [ 10 ]. Thanks to this kind of relatively incipient technology, the optimization possibilities on ships are huge compared to the current state.…”

Systems engineering plays a key role in the naval sector, focusing on how to design, integrate, and manage complex systems throughout their life cycle; it is therefore difficult to conceive functional warships without it. To this end, specialized information systems for logistical support and the sustainability of material solutions are essential to ensure proper provisioning and to know the operational status of the frigate. However, based on an architecture composed of a set of logistics applications, this information system may require highly qualified operators with a deep knowledge of the behavior of onboard systems to manage it properly. In this regard, failure detection systems have been postulated as one of the main cutting-edge methods to address the challenge, employing intelligent techniques for observing anomalies in the normal behavior of systems without the need for expert knowledge. In this paper, the study is concerned to the scope of the Spanish navy, where a complex information system structure is responsible for ensuring the correct maintenance and provisioning of the vessels. In such context, we hereby suggest a comparison between different one-class techniques, such as statistical models, geometric boundaries, or dimensional reduction to face anomaly detection in specific subsystems of a warship, with the prospect of applying it to the whole ship.

“…This research work addresses both challenges: It presents the design and implementation of predictive maintenance distributed architecture for big, complex and heterogeneous pieces of military equipment. Furthermore, the concept has been validated over warships' systems, where some traditional maintenance work have been performed [11], but, to author's knowledge, no predictive capabilities have been applied.…”

SOPRENE: Assessment of the Spanish Armada’s Predictive Maintenance Tool for Naval Assets

Predictive maintenance has lately proved to be a useful tool for optimizing costs, performance and systems availability. Furthermore, the greater and more complex the system, the higher the benefit but also the less applied: Architectural, computational and complexity limitations have historically ballasted the adoption of predictive maintenance on the biggest systems. This has been especially true in military systems where the security and criticality of the operations do not accept uncertainty. This paper describes the work conducted in addressing these challenges, aiming to evaluate its applicability in a real scenario: It presents a specific design and development for an actual big and diverse ecosystem of equipment, proposing an semi-unsupervised predictive maintenance system. In addition, it depicts the solution deployment, test and technological adoption of real-world military operative environments and validates the applicability.

Environmental logistics in Colombian river areas requires solutions that allow economic development based on tourism, without ecological degradation. Therefore, this paper shows the most relevant aspects of the project and preliminary design of a Pontoon-type vessel with a catamaran hull of 8 meters in length with enough power to reach a speed of 5 knots (85%MCR) and built in aluminum, which will also have electric propulsion based on a hydrogen fuel cell, and using renewable energies such as solar panels on the roof and a wind turbine. One of its main characteristics is that it will be a pollution-free ship and its classification will be done following the regulations of the Bureau Veritas, and all those national and international regulations that are applicable. Due to the problems generated by the daily use of the different means river transportation, which undoubtedly, could generate an irreversible affectation to the environment and a considerable loss of biodiversity in aquatic ecosystems, which worsens over time, this prototype design might be presented to national shipbuilding, as a possibility for designing eco-friendly tourist vessels for the country's river areas, as an example for future constructions that are expected with the rise of tourism in the country.
