There is a need for prototyping in the shipping industry but the costs are too high. Numerical simulations can provide a solution for this. In order to use numerical simulations in prototyping, proper numerical tools for relevant components of various suppliers are needed, as well as a framework capable of coupling these tools. HOLISHIP “HOLIstic optimisation of SHIP design, operation for lifecycle (E.U. H2020 project) (HOLISHIP)” proposes asolution by coupling the tools of various suppliers through the internet, where the tools remain on the server of the owning company, protecting the Intellectual Property Rights “Intellectual Property Rights (I.P.R.)” (I.P.R.), but providing limited, controlled access to the framework.In this chapter, after abrief introduction on the numerical models “Numerical models” in Sect. 7.1, the next Sect. 7.2 describes the need for coupled simulations, what is required from atechnical point of view to achieve that.In Sect. 7.3 the use of simulations in concept design “Concept design” is elaborated, while in Sect. 7.4 the use of simulations in design verification “Design verification”is discussed. Section 7.5 provides insight into the available models, frameworks to perform coupled simulations.Some application, acase study “Case study” are discussed in Sect. 7.6. Finally, Sect. 7.7 demonstrates the framework through an example application.The conclusions, way ahead are presented in Sect. 7.8.
