Dr. Matteo Scarponi is a Principal Enterprise Fellow at the University of Southampton's Southampton Marine and Maritime Institute. His research focuses on maritime safety, yacht and fishing vessel design, and the development of virtual reality (VR) simulators for improving helm performance. Scarponi has contributed to projects such as model-scale testing for seastate allowances and safety protocols for small fishing vessels. His work bridges ship science with behavioral science, emphasizing human factors in marine systems.
Research Interests:
- Maritime safety regulations and compliance
- VR-based training and performance assessment
- Interdisciplinary approaches to yacht and vessel design
- Offshore engineering challenges
External Roles:
- Speaker at the 2024 event on the UK Code of Practice for Small Fishing Vessels
Advising & Grants: No active PhD students listed. Collaborates on HEIF-funded projects related to maritime safety and simulation technology.
Labs/Teams: Affiliated with the Southampton Marine and Maritime Institute, collaborating with researchers like Dr. Wassim Dbouk and Prof. Stephen Turnock.
