The “RESET – REliability and Safety Engineering and Technology for large maritime engineering systems” project (with total funding of €1,417,500 from EU) is collaborative research among 9 universities from 7 countries – Liverpool John Moores University (UK), Aalto University (Aalto-Korkeakoulusäätiö; Finland), Instituto Superior Tecnico, Universidade of Lisbon (Portugal), Leibniz University Hannover (Germany), University of Plymouth (UK), Mahidol University (Thailand), Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia (National University of Malaysia; Malaysia), Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (Malaysia), and Wuhan University of Technology (China).
The RESET project leader at Mahidol University is Asst. Prof. Dr. Wonsiri Punurai and the team members include Asst. Prof. Dr. Trakarn Prapaspongsa, Asst. Prof.Dr. Yasothorn Sapsathiarn, and Asst. Prof. Dr. Teraphan Ornthammarath from Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, Faculty of Engineering. Under this project, there will be short- and long-term visits of professors and researchers from all partner universities in order to carry out research and organize seminars as well as international conferences from 2017 to 2021.
In addition, on 20th July 2017, Professor Jin Wang from Liverpool John Moores University, UK, who is the principal coordinator of this program give a special seminar organised by Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, Faculty of Engineering, Mahidol University. The topic is ”A Risk-Based Approach in Design and Operation of Large Maritime Engineering Systems under Uncertainties”
Staffs from Mahidol University will have more opportunities from this collaboration and also interesting research outcomes from the RESET project funded by the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme throughout these four years.
