The increasing activity worldwide in many areas of marine engineering has brought in the necessity of new ideas and methods which can effectively provide accurate numerical solutions in affordable times.

The objectives of the Marine 2007 conference are to present and discuss state of the art, mathematical models,numerical methods and computational techniques for solving problems in the field of marine engineering. Emphasis will be given to showing the potential of new computational methods for solving practical marine engineering problems of industrial interest.

The first edition of these series of conferences was held on 27-29 June 2005 in Oslo, Norway and attracted some 100 participants.

The conference goal is to make a step forward in the formulation and computational solution of marine engineering problems accounting for all the complex couplings involved in the physical description of the problems.
