Ocean, Offshore and Arctic Engineering (OOAE) Division
The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME International)

 



Message from the OOAE Chair, 2009-2010


The Ocean, Offshore and Arctic Engineering Division is concerned with a wide-range of technical competencies, including environmental loading, hydrodynamic behavior, materials selection, structural strength, and safety.

Historically, there has been an emphasis on ships, floating units and subsea equipment associated with the oil & gas industry. Recently, ocean renewable energies, such as from waves, tides, currents and offshore wind, have provided new areas of substantial interest.

The main activity of the OOAE is the annual International Conference on Ocean, Offshore and Arctic Engineering (OMAE). The very successful 28th OMAE was held in June in Honolulu, Hawaii, with nearly 700 attendees. The 29th OMAE will be held in June 2010 in Shanghai, China.

The OMAE Conference is widely recognized as the primary international forum for technical exchanges in the above-mentioned areas. Academia, industry and regulatory institutions are well-represented. The OMAE conference proceedings are indexed in the Index to Scientific & Technical Proceedings/ISI Proceedings (Web of Knowledge) and the Index to Scientific & Technical Proceedings (Print). This is a very special distinction, recognizing the quality of the OMAE papers, of which we are most proud.

On behalf of the OOAE Division of ASME, I would like to invite you to OMAE2010 in Shanghai (www.omae2010.com). The conference promises to be an excellent opportunity to maintain knowledge of state-of-the-art advancements in ocean, offshore and arctic engineering.
