Objective The overall objective of the Network is to improve comfort, effectiveness, safety, reliability and environmental behaviour of ship structures through the application of advanced structural and reliability assessment within design, fabrication and operati on, leading to increased public and commercial confidence in the competitiveness and use of waterborne transport. The Network aims at strengthening European competitiveness aiming at a permanent organisation of the type of a virtual institute, ensuring th e integration of various groups in a European Centre of Competence for structural analysis of ships. The objectives will be achieved through a programme for jointly executed research in the area of structural analysis of ships, the creation of research fa cilities and platforms, and a continuous programme of dissemination and communication of research results. The programme is designed to contribute to the mutual specialisation and complementarity through building up strengths and shrinking weaknesses of p articipants, and it will strengthen scientific and technological excellence of European Research Area by integrating a critical mass of resources and expertise at a European level, and provide leadership in the design of efficient and safe ship structures . The activities of the Network cover different areas related with advanced structural analysis, such as: specification of the loading appropriate for the various modes of structural response and strength; methods and tools for the analysis both numericall y and experimentally of structural strength and performance, including aspects of ultimate strength, fatigue, crashworthiness, fire and explosion, resistance, noise and vibration; influence of fabrication methods and new advanced materials on the structura l strength and performance of ships; tools for design and optimisation of ship structures; tools and methods of structural reliability, safety and environmental protection of ships.
