Emre Kahramanoğlu

Emre Kahramanoğlu serves as an Assistant Professor in the Department of Marine Engineering at Istanbul Technical University, focusing on advanced marine hydrodynamics and control systems for naval vessels. His research bridges computational fluid dynamics with practical marine vehicle applications.

His primary research interests include ship motion control, maneuvering derivatives, interceptor mechanisms for planing hulls, and scale effects in hydrodynamic modeling. He specializes in numerical prediction methods and applies control engineering techniques like Model Predictive Control and Linear Quadratic Regulators to solve stability challenges in marine environments. His work particularly addresses roll motion control, submarine dynamics, and drag reduction through innovative hull design.

Analysis of his 2023-2024 publications reveals a strong emphasis on computational approaches to marine vehicle dynamics, with consistent focus on numerical validation of control systems and hydrodynamic interactions. Key trends include integration of state estimation techniques with control algorithms, investigation of scale effects across vessel types, and optimization of interceptor systems for planing craft.

As Principal Investigator for the 2024 project 'Development of a MATLAB-based Software to Evaluate Ship Stability Performance' (SRP), he leads research in computational tools for marine stability assessment. His collaborative network spans multiple institutions, with frequent co-authorship on hydrodynamics and control engineering topics.
