Recently, the design point of the propeller is gradually changing due to the demand for energy saving and environmental protection. Until recently, self-propulsion model tests were conducted using stock propellers and geometry information was provided to propeller designers, but the range of existing stock propellers did not keep up with the changing design points, and the range of series propellers required in the initial design was also insufficient. Future propeller performance requires high performance and eco-friendliness, and the need for expansion of series propellers has increased. In order to respond to future needs and provide a wide range of advantages in propeller design, KRISO manufactures about 100 series propellers and builds series data through a model tests. In this paper, the approach method for deriving the representative optimal shape to be applied to the 4-blade series propeller in the initial stage of series propeller development was summarized.

The purpose of this study is related to automatic hull-form design for ships operating at two speeds. Research was conducted using a series 60 ($C_B=0.6$) ship as a target, which has the most basic ship hull-form. Hull-form development was pursued from the viewpoint of improving resistance performance. In particular, automatic hull-form design for a ship was performed to improve wave resistance, which is closely related to hull-forms. For this purpose, we developed automatic hull-form design software for ships by combining an optimization technique, resistance prediction technique and hull-form modification technique, appling the software developed to a target ship. A sequential quadratic programming method was used for optimization, and a potential-based panel method was used to predict resistance performance. A Gaussian-type modification function was developed and applied to change the ship hull-form. The software developed was used to design a target ship operating at two different speeds, and the performance of the resulting optimized hull was compared with the results of the original hull. In order to verify the validity of the program developed, experimental results obtained in model tests were compared with calculated values by numerical analysis.

This paper presents theoretical formulations and numerical computations for predicting first-and second-order hydrodynamic force on a ship advvancing in waves. The theoretical formulation leads to linearized radiation and diffration problems solving the three-dimensional Green function integral equations over the mean wetted body surface. Green function representing a translating and pulsating source potantial for infinite water depth is used. In order to solve integral equations for three dimentional flows using Green function efficiently, the Hoff's method is adopted for numerical calculation of the Green function. Based on the first-order solution, the mean seconder-order forces and moments are obtained by directly integrating second-order pressure over the mean wetted body surface. The calculated items are carried out for analyzing the seakeeping characteristics of Series 60. The calculated items are hydrodynamic coefficients, wave exciting forces, frequency response functions and addd resistance in waves.

In this paper a new hull-panel generation algorithm named 'Panel Cutting Method' was developed to solve the flow phenomena around a ship advancing on the free surface with a constant speed. In this algorithm the non-linearity of the free surface boundary conditions was taken into account using the iterative method and the raised panel was used at each iteration step. Numerical calculations were performed to investigate the validity of the developed algorithm using the series $60(C_B=0.60)$ hull The wave resistance coefficients, the wave patterns and the wave heights were compared between the computed and the experimental results at Fn=0.25 and 0.316. The comparison showed good agreement between computation and experiment.

When a ship advancing in waves is subjected to impact forces or irregular forces, the motion analyses for ship are convenient for being calculated in the time domain. The added mass, wave damping coefficients, wave exciting forces and mean drift forces are calculated by 3-Dimensional panel method used the translating pulsating Green function in the frequency domain and the motion equations which are considered by the memory effect due to waves are numerically solved by using the Newmark-$\beta$ method in the time domain. The motion analyses are carried out for a Series 60($C_B=0.7$) moving in irregular waves. The items of calculation are 6-degree motions, accelerations at the fore and after position, numbers of deck wetness and numbers of exposure at ship-bottom, etc. Moreover, the thrust addition in waves is examined by considering the time mean drift forces in the motion equations of time domain.

A statistcal investigation was made on the seiches at Pohang harbor, east of Korea, based on the data of observations for the year 1973 and 1974. Pohang harbor has a most remarkable seiches comparing to the major harbors in Korea. The frequently observed conspicuos seiches at the harbor have a period of 20 to 24 minutes mostly and 60 to 84 minutes in the next place. Maximum height of seiches were 50cm in 1973 and 60cm in 1974, respectively, which were occured at the expansions of cold-dry continental high pressure and on the following day of passages of lowest pressurs. Minus tides at Pohang were occured more frequently than that of seiches and the minus tides falled more greatly at the time of seiches.

With the enforcement of environmental regulations by the International Maritime Organization, the market for eco-friendly ships is expanding, and ships using electric propulsion devices are emerging as a promising solution. Many studies have been conducted to predict the failure of ships, but most of them are mainly research on the main diesel engine of ships. As the ship's propulsion method changes, new data is needed to predict the failure of electric propulsion ships. In this paper aims to analyze the failure characteristics of the electric propulsion system in consideration of the difference in the type of failure between the internal diesel engine and the electric propulsion system. The ship's propulsion unit assumed a DC motor and a signal pattern for normal conditions and general failure modes, but the failure record of the electric propulsion device operated on the actual ship was not available, so it generated a failure signal for small electric motor equipment to identify the failure signal. Assuming unbalance, misalignment, and bearing failure, which are the primary failure modes of the ship's electric motor, a failure signal was generated using a "rotator vibration data generator," and the frequency band, size, and phase difference of the measured vibration signal were analyzed to analyze the characteristics of each failure condition. Finally, the characteristics of each failure condition were identified so that the signals according to the failure type could be classified.

To obtain the values of linear stability derivatives, both analytical and experimental methods are now proposed and in use. The experimental method is well known as the planar motion mechanism(PMM) test. Its concept is to drive the model with a prescrived frequency and amplitude of the motion and pick up the hydrodynamic forces. But this kind of method is inconvenient in case we want to know the stability derivatives in wider range of the frequencies. So a different method is attempted that with one test run, we can get the derivatives in wider range of the frequencies. This technique forces the impulsive motion on the model, using the power of the oil pressure pump. This kind of method was originated by Scragg, C.A., Cummins, W.E, or Frank, T., This resarch is a further development of such preceding works. Todd's series 60(Cb=0.7) 2.00M model is chosen for the test and the results are compared with Van Leeuwen's famous PMM test results.
