INSTEAD OF HISTORY

The Bulgarian Ship Hydrodynamics Centre (BSHC) is a permanent scientific unit within the Sector “Engineering Sciences” of the Bulgarian Academy of Science (BAS) since year 2004.

The mission of B S H C is to perform fundamental and applied researches, to train students and PhD graduates in the field of ship hydrodynamics, aerodynamics, ocean and coastal engineering, environmental protection, water transport, defense and others in favor of the society.

The idea for construction of such institute for the needs of Bulgaria emerges yet in the 50-s. The start of the Institute is set in 1966 with the research task ТЕКК 9-66 developed by the

Shipbuilding Institute with the State Economics Unit (SEU) “Shipbuilding” - “Choice of optimum experimental and research base for ship hydrodynamics” with following development of the idea concept (work accomplished by leading world experts in the field) and work project.

The facilities of the Centre are built in 1973-1976 with the technical and financial support of the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) and of the International Maritime Organization (IMO) and were officially set into operation in 1976.

During the construction and after that, the main research personnel of the Centre realizes intensive specializations in prestigious hydrodynamics centers in Europe, Asia and America.

In 1977 the Bulgarian Ship Hydrodynamics Centre (BSHC) was established with the Ministry of machinebuilding and metallurgy with subject of activity hydrodynamic researches and tests of applied and fundamental character in the field of shipbuilding, water transport, fishing, etc.

Within the course of time, reaching corresponding professional level, the institute enlarges repeatedly the subject of activity (contribution for this has the fact that the centre is unit within BAS), which is presented in details further below.

For the last 4 years within BAS, BSHC marks significant growth as a scientific and experimental centre. The scope of the performed scientific and applied researches is considerably enlarged in such fields as ocean engineering, coastal and river engineering, as well as in aerodynamics. Active training is carried out of post graduates and students and for increasing of the qualification of the research staff of the Institute. The popularity and the prestige of the Institute increases as leading maritime centre on the Bulgarian and international market of scientific products. There is a sharp grow up of the share of the realized scientific service provided to the Bulgarian shipbuilding and marine economy – of the scientific and applied researches realized in 2007 five are for R Bulgaria which is almost 1/3 of this activity.
