Hybrid Ship Fuel Consumption Prediction Through Operational Performance Simulation

The maritime industry's imperative to optimize fuel consumption and reduce environmental impact necessitates the development of advanced predictive models for ship operational performance. This paper presents an approach to address this challenge through the integration of hybrid modeling techniques and Siemens Simcenter Amesim software. The primary objective is to develop a hybrid ship functional model capable of accurately predicting fuel consumption across diverse seaway scenarios.
