The influence of different heat treatment conditions on microstructure, mechanical and fatigue properties of Spheroidal Graphite cast Iron with 0.4-0.6% Mn was investigated. 1) Maximum tensile strength was arrived by tempering at about $450^{\circ}C$after quenching. Tempering at higher than $600^{\circ}C$ was changed martensitic structure to ferritic structure and secondary graphites were precipitated. 2) The relationship between matrix hardness and total hardness of the specimens are as following. [HB]$T$=0.7[HB] [HB]$M$+35 Maximum tensile strength was arrived at the total hardness of HB400-450. 3) Endurance ratio decreases with increasing total hardness, and fatigue limits can be presumed from as following. $\sigmaf$=$\sigmat$

An iterative procedure for the calculation of the thick axisymmetric boundary layer and wake near the stern of a body of revolution is presented. Procedure consists of the potential flow calculation by a method of the integral equation of first kind and the calculation of boundary layer and wake by a differential me¬thod of the boundary layer theory. Additionally, higher order terms are included in the conventional momentum equations and continuity equation for the consider¬ation of the characteristics of axisymmetric flow different from the one of two dimentional flow and the thick boundary layer. These solutions are matched at the edge of boundary layer and wake. The results obtained by the present me¬thod are compared with the experimental data and it is found that the nominal wake distribution at the propeller plane of a axisymmetric body is in good agree¬ment with the experiment.

From first-order thin-ship theory, we can obtain the" wave resistance, wave amplitude functions, wave elevation along the hull, sinkage and trim of a ship moving with constant speed into calm water. Generally, these calculations of ship is called with Michell’s Theory, and there is all the difference between calculated wave resistance and residual resistance from conventional wave resis¬tance test. But, these calculated results are important reference materials for initial hull form design procedure. Various calculated results for Shearer’ s Model, Wigley’s Model and Series 60 4210W Model have been calculated using this theory. The results are compared with the corresponding experimental values, and the agreement between theoretical and experimental values is considered satisfactory.

This paper presents three methods for ship hull form improvement on the basis of wave pattern analysis. These methods are primarily based on the assumption that a linear relation exists between the small difference of hull sections and the difference of the wave amplitude functions. The improved hull form of ship is made by superposing a thin hull form on that of a parent model. The first method use the simplification of framelines and Michell's Theory to the formula of wave resistance for superposed thin ship. The second method use tent functions and Michell's Theory to that. And the third is experimental method.

This report describes the analysis method of the full-scale propulsive performance by using the data of model test and the full-scale speed trial. The model test data were analyzed by the computer program "PPTT" based on "1978 ITTC Performance Prediction Method for Single Screw Ships." Also the full-scale speed trial data were analyzed by the computer program "SSTT" based on the newly proposed “SRS-KIMM Standard Method of Speed Trial Analysis." An analysis of model and full-scale test data was carried out for a 60.000 DWT Bulk Carrier and the correlation between model and full-scale ship was stuied.

Flap type wave-maker, wave absorber, motion measuring equipment and related instruments were newly installed at Ship Experimental Towing Tank, Ship Research Station, KIMM. The model tests in regular head and following waves were successfully carried out and the motion and wave loads in regular and long crested irregular waves were calculated for a container ship model which was adopted as the hull form for the comparative calculations of the ITTC Seakeeping Committee. The results of model tests show good agreement with calculated results and the latter are generally in good agreement with the results of the comparative calculations.
