The trainers were Jari Lappalainen, Jouni Savolainen, Miro Eklund, and Reino Ruusu from Semantum Oy and participants were from the automation unit of the University of Turku, Novia University of Applied Sciences, Åbo Akademi University, and Meyer Turku Oy.
The Apros software is used for the modelling and dynamic simulation of power plants, energy systems, and industrial processes. It is developed by Fortum Oy and VTT Technical Research Centre Finland and Semantum Oy is a development partner.
The VST is a 6-million-euro public research project. The overarching objective is to develop concepts of unified, distributed test environments for virtual sea trials and commissioning for the whole shipbuilding ecosystem. Establishing a shared test environment between the shipyard, vendors, and research organizations makes it possible to ensure that system-level testing can be performed early in the shipbuilding process.
