The facilities available at IH Cantabria allow many different types of applications
related with coastal hydrodynamics, such as the design of coastal and harbour defense
infrastructures, dredging, marine foundations related problems, analysis of new
submarine technologies, design of offshore structures, anchoring designs, platforms,
risk assessment and efficiency of ROV’s, AUV’s and buoys, offshore wind parks, etc. In
short, any type of marine coastal and offshore engineering requiring numerical or
physical modelling.
The main areas of work include:
- Ocean Engineering
- Offshore technology
- Safety and reliability
- Marine resources
- Computational fluids mechanics in marine engineering
- Science and technology for polar regions
- Materials technologies
