Steller Systems’ Design Accelerator

Wednesday, August 14th, 2024

With the rising use of Unmanned Surface Vessels (USVs) in military applications worldwide, Steller Systems was tasked with exploring the civilian potential of these vessels.

Utilising Steller Systems’ Design Accelerator process, which leverages the power of Siemens NX alongside the efficient integration of our hull optimisation tool HullTune®, as well as other tools including Paramarine and Simcenter Nastran, we are able to rapidly and efficiently refine designs to ensure viability, provide realistic performance estimates, and chart a clear development path.

Following this innovative process has allowed us to transform our 6m Instep hullform in a very short amount of time into the Swift Response Craft (SRC), a versatile remote-controlled response vessel, allowing us to explore a number of design options and applications.

The resulting platform features twin jet propulsion that can power the craft in excess of 40 knots and enable a cruise range over 100 miles, allowing it to get on scene and render assistance ahead of the arrival of a crewed vessel. The SRC’s configurable payload area can be fitted with a range of options – from lifesaving equipment for search and rescue operations, to firefighting, to spill response – to suit any role where response time is critical. The craft is deployable from any number of davits or launch systems for quick response on land or at sea.

Gyro-stabilised thermal cameras, combined with high resolution radar give superior situational awareness and a range of communication systems run in parallel to ensure the remote connection is always stable. 

For more information on the SRC or Steller Systems’ Design Accelerator process, please contact us.

HullTune® by Steller Systems

Wednesday, June 19th, 2024

We are currently seeing lots of interest in using HullTune® to optimise hulls for new-build commercial applications, but have you thought about retrofitting a more efficient bow to your existing ship? Shipping operators are increasingly operating at lower speeds and lower displacements than their hulls were initially designed for, and retrofitting a more efficient bow shape can pay for itself within a short period of time as well as reduce GHG emissions. 

Keep an eye out for one of our technical papers on the topic of operational profiles coming out soon. 

Get in touch if you would like to discuss how HullTune® by Steller Systems can optimise your new or existing hull design to your unique operational profile. 

Combined Naval Event 2024

Friday, June 14th, 2024

It’s been three weeks since the Combined Naval Event 2024 and here at Steller Systems Ltd. we’ve been busy following up on all the great meetings held and new contacts made.

The event was a resounding success, highlighted by the unveiling of FEARLESS, our concept to propose an innovative approach to the features of the Multi-Role Support Ship. It was a pleasure to guide attendees through the design, sparking engaging and thought-provoking technical discussions around its key features and CONOPs.

Additionally, we showcased our 19m Offshore Insertion Craft, offering visitors an immersive experience through our VR capabilities and demonstrating recent trials with a scale functioning model.

While our designs garnered most of the attention, our core strength lies in being a naval architecture and marine engineering consultancy. We love to solve complex technical challenges, big and small, leveraging our extensive expertise and creative problem-solving skills. Please get in touch to find out how we can support your project.

We’d like to extend our gratitude to the event organisers Navy Leaders, Maelstrom Event Solutions for our stunning stand, Ogle Models & Prototypes Ltd for the beautiful model of FEARLESS, and End State for the captivating video of our OIC demonstrator in action.

Stay connected as we continue to innovate and push the boundaries of naval engineering!

Combined Naval Event Wraps Up

Friday, May 24th, 2024

It’s the final day of the Combined Naval Event 2024. We have been pleased to welcome so many distinguished guests to our stand, including our valued customers, partners and suppliers.

If you would like to hear more about our ground-breaking technologies in naval damage control, launch and recovery, and AI-optimised ship design, or how Steller Systems can support your programmes with naval architecture and marine engineering support, then please visit our stand or get in touch.

Particular highlights have been discussions around the requirements for future warships and our concept design for littoral strike ship FEARLESS, as well as being able to walk people through our designs using VR.
