On the Development of Seakeeping Performance Evaluation System with Establishing a Safety Space

안전공간 설계에 의한 선박 내박성능의 평가 시스템 개발에 관한 연구

The recently-developed automated vessels require a system which evaluates the operating condition of the ship at present position form weather information as well as sensors; forecasts the operation condition the sea state to come in foreseeable future ; and suggests the optimum course and speed for ship's sa-fety. According to a study deck wetness propeller racing slamming rolling vertical acceleration lateral acce-leartion vertical bending moment at midship etc. were chosen as the factors for evaluating seakeeping per-formance. As a mater of fact there is no developing the hardware of a system which could consider all the factors onseakeeping performance. This study introduces a theoretical method which makes it possible to evaluate the seakeeping perfor-mance byapplying a theory from reliability engineering and thereby establishing a safety space. lation of stochastic processes with the factors presently adopted for evaluating sekakeeping performance. and develops the overall eseakeeping performance evaluation system in consideration of the safety of human being cargoes and the ship This method of evaluation shall be of much use in developing the practical system of seakeeping perfor-mance of a ship in waves.
