Hazardous and noxious substances (HNS) may cause maritime incidents during marine transportation, which are liable to lead to a large amount of spillage or discharge into the sea. The damage to the marine environment caused by the HNS spill or discharge is known to be much greater than the damage caused by oil spill. Particularly dangerous is HNS, which is deposited or buried in the seabed, as it can damage the organisms that live on, in, and near the bottom of the sea, the so-called "benthos," forming the benthic ecosystem. Therefore, it is vital that the HNS deposited on the seabed be recovered. In order to do so, procedures and equipment are required for accurate detection, stabilization treatment, and recovery of HNS in subsea sediment. Thus, when developing a mechanical recovery system, the performance requirements should be selected using performance indices, and the conceptual design of the mechanical recovery system should be based on performance requirements decided upon and selected in advance. Therefore, this study was conducted to arrive at a conceptual design for a mechanical recovery system for the recovery of HNS deposited on the seabed. In the design of the system, based on the fundamental scenario, the method of suction foundation with the function of self enclosing was adopted for recovering the HNS sediment in the subsea sediment. The mechanical recovery system comprises the suction foundation, pollution prevention, a pump system, control system, monitoring device, location information device, transfer device, and tanks. This conceptual design is expected to be reflected and used in the basic design of the components and shapes of the mechanical recovery system.

In designing and manufacturing a submarine, an expensive real mock up is usually built as a reference because of the spatial constraints of a submarine. This paper presents an integrated and automated design process for a submarine that uses a digital mock up. Various equipment libraries are built for feature based design. Using the developed digital mock up, this paper shows various ways to verify the design, including a space analysis to check for any interference between pieces of equipment and the hull and an ergonomic analysis using lifelike dummies to examine the work space and operability. As a part of the integrated design system, a design automation system was also developed to generate surface point data for the outer hull, pressure hull, casing, and sail. The whole process was applied to the design of a submarine for verification.

In order to design the conceptual configuration of the short-range ballistic missile, the authors have established an optimization problem considering various aspects such as volume, aerodynamics, propulsion, structure, stability, and flight trajectory. For this purpose, the existing missile cases were analyzed and the design conditions and performance indices were derived. The performance of the whole system was analyzed by integrating each subsystem's model. Through the design example, we analyzed the relationship between various design variables and final performances.

A prototype design process visualization and guidance system, is being developed. Its purpose is to visualize the design process in more intuitive manner so that one can get an insight to the complicated aspects of the design process. By providing a tangible utility to the design process performed by the expert designers or guided by the system, novice designers will be greatly helped to learn how to approach a certain class of design. Not only as an analysis tool to represent the characteristics of the design process, the system will be useful also for learning design process. A design ontology is being developed to provide the system with a knowledge-base, representing designer's activities associated with various design information during the conceptual design process, and then to be utilized for a computer environment for design analysis and guidance. To develop the design ontology, a conceptual framework of design activity model is proposed, and then the model has been tested and elaborated through investigating the nature of the early conceptual design. A design process representation model is conceptualized based on the ontology, and reflected into the development of the system. This paper presents the development process of the visualization system, modeling of design process ontology, and how the system could be utilized for the analysis and learning of conceptual design methods using computer mediated design support environment.

This paper describes a design model for conceptual design of ship. Existing design models have some problems. For example, operating environment of batch versions can not reflect design procedure of real world truely and reliability of results are not high because means of performance estimation are based only on empirical formula. To improve these problems of existing design models, a new design model has been developed. The new model consists of interactive environment with databases of main engine and existing ship data. To develop user-oriented system, graphic user interface(GUI) is adapted.

A conceptual design is carried out for a two-stage scramjet cruise vehicle flying at Mach 4 to investigate its feasibility. The design goal is to deliver a payload of 225 kg and to fly a range of about 500 km. It is accelerated to its cruising speed by the first stage using a solid rocket of 52.9 kN thrust 3.59 m in length. The second stage cruises using a kerosene-burning scramjet engine of 6.85 kN thrust, the vehicle being 7.55 m in length and 508 mm in width. The vehicle has a take-off weight of 2.1 tons, flies 500 km in 6 minutes at 17 km altitude.

Many countries are paying efforts to the research and development of water-breathing ramjet propulsion for submersible vehicle with the super-cavitation which makes traveling at high speed in underwater possible. In this study, a conceptual design of an underwater vehicle with water-breathing ramjet was carried out. Mission profiles and operating conditions are determined by examining the operation environment. Drag is estimated based on the theories of super-cavitation and fluid mechanics. The sizing and performance analysis of the components were performed using thrust required, thrust and specific impulse of designed engine were verified.

This paper developed the theoretical method to predict structural performances and weight reduction rates of a carbody when its materials should be substituted. For the material substitution design of the carbody, the bending, axial and twisting deformations are evaluated under the constant stiffness and strength conditions. For the design of the primary structures such as the center beams, the cross beams and the cantrails, the bending and axial deformations are investigated under the condition of the constant bending stiffness, the constant bending or buckling strength by considering both the material properties and the cross sectional shapes. The developed indices to measure the weight reduction by the material substitution give good informations on the weak and strong points of a carbody design.

Fallout ash is a notorious hazard that can have a variety of damages on agriculture and infrastructure and, most notably to aviation and human health. This study discusses the design of a conceptual model to aid in modeling the dispersal and deposition of ash from Mt. Baekdu volcano. It includes a discussion of assumptions and boundary conditions of the model as well as a detailed diagram of the conceptual model, complete with input parameters, units and equations. The two main processes contained within the model are the dispersal and deposition of ash, the outputs obtained from running the model, if designed, would be the total amount of fine ash contained in the eruption column, distance travelled by ash and ash thickness at surface.
