The well-known Dutch research institutes MARIN and TNO offer a 2-day course – 'Onboard Noise & Vibration'. The organisers believe that the entire maritime industry can benefit from this training course, and claim it is the only training course in the world specialised in the details of noise and vibrations at an advanced level. The program has been developed and adjusted to the needs expressed by the industry and deals with the origin and prevention of noise and vibrations on board. The two-day training course takes place in Delft, the Netherlands, on 28 and 29 May.
