Organizing Committee
Morel Groper
From 1987 to 2010, Morel Groper served in the Israel Navy as a mechanical design engineer, a navy shipyard chief marine engineer, and as the Head of the Israel Navy Naval Architecture and Marine Engineering Department. Prof. Groper earned his PhD in 1999 from the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering at the Technion – Israel Institute of Technology. In 2010, Morel retired from the Navy and launched an R&D company to provide advanced mechanical engineering design to the marine and industrial sectors. In 2014, Morel joined the University of Haifa to establish the Department of Marine Technologies and advance his own research. His SubSEA Engineering Laboratory at the Hatter Department of Marine Technologies conducts research works in design of underwater marine vehicles, water lubricated bearings and mechanical components in the marine environment. His research interests include mechanical design of systems and components, tribology in the marine environment, and propulsion of marine platforms
