Introduction

Maritime transportation is undergoing significant technical and regulatory changes aimed at improving energy efficiency and reducing greenhouse-gas emissions. International maritime regulations have introduced performance indicators including the Energy Efficiency Existing Ship Index (EEXI) and Carbon Intensity Indicator (CII), creating engineering requirements that affect propulsion-system design and vessel operation. Lee’s research addresses this intersection between regulatory performance and mechanical engineering by examining how modifications intended to improve vessel efficiency influence shafting-system safety. [1]

Research Profile

Lee’s documented research profile is situated within engineering applications related to maritime systems. His published work connects ship energy-efficiency requirements with propulsion-system analysis, particularly where changes to propeller or engine configurations can influence mechanical loads and shafting performance. The research therefore occupies an interdisciplinary position between marine engineering, mechanical-system safety, and environmental performance.

Research Contributions

The principal documented contribution concerns the engineering assessment of a redesigned shafting system implemented following propeller redesign intended to improve CII and EEXI performance. The study examined a 6500 TEU container ship and determined engine power limitations under EEXI-related requirements before assessing the resulting implications for CII. The redesigned shafting system was subsequently evaluated through torsional-vibration calculations and shaft-alignment analyses. [1]
