 Zafer Ayaz, BSc, is research fellow at The Ship Stability Research Centre of Department of Naval Architecture and Marine Engineering. Universities of Glasgow and Strathclyde. He is currently completing his PhD and his research subjects and main interests are intact stability and capsizing simulations of ships, manoeuvring, dynamic stability, propulsion and control.

　

 Professor Dracos Vassalos, PhD, BSc, CEng, is the Head of Department of Naval Architecture and Marine Engineering of the Universities of Glasgow and Strathclyde. He is also the founder and Director of the Ship Stability Research Centre (SSRC), a research centre of excellence comprising 50 researchers that deal with wide-ranging aspects of dynamics, stability, safety and design of ships and advanced marine vehicles. He has been involved in research, development and application on the stability and safety of ships and advanced marine vehicles. He is the co-ordinator of the largest EU Thematic Network, "Design for Safety" (92 organisations from 16 European and Associated Nations spanning the whole spectrum of the marine industry). Chairman of the ITTC Specialist Committee on Ship Stability, Chairman of the International Standing Committee of the STAB Conferences and International Round-Table-Discussion Workshops, Chairman of the Executive Committee of WEGEMT (an association of 43 European Universities in Marine Technology and related Sciences 1999-200l) and member of the UK delegation to IMO for ship stability.
