Approximately 150 people registered for the conference. We hosted some of the world’s leading researchers in the area of ships and offshore structures who delivered keynote lectures and technical presentations. The conference was also a great opportunity for young researchers to meet with these world-leading researchers and discuss their research. This year, ICSOS conference also hosted “TrAM Workshop” with a particular focus on design and construction of electric vessels. Because of the travel limitations due to Covid-19 pandemic, the format of the conference was in virtual format for the first time. We are very pleased to receive positive feedback from the participants about the virtual format of the conference. We would like to thank the local organizing committee for their tremendous support for the success of the conference including Profs.
