Naval Design and Structural Engineering

Choose ZERO 13 for your naval project

At Zero13, design is a core activity, aimed at developing artefacts for the marine and industrial sectors. Our method is based on a spiral approach, starting with the analysis of the customer's needs and evolving through verification, simulation and optimisation, until the project is fully defined.

Innovation in Design:
CFD and FEM analysis

Thanks to consolidated experience gained from prestigious shipyards, regulatory bodies and research institutes, we offer an in-depth study of hulls, structures and on-board fittings, supported by the use of advanced tools such as CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) and FEM (Finite Element Method).
