This paper presents the optimum design of cylindrical shell under external pressure loading. Two kinds of material, Al7075-T6, Ti-6Al-4V, are considered. For each material, the design variable is a thickness of the unstiffened parallel middle body shell, and the state variable, constraint, is hoop stress and the object .function is total weight of the cylindrical shell. Optimization is performed by conventional FE Program, ANSYS. In addition, buckling analysis is performed for the middle body of the cylindrical shell. Finally, we calculates the payload of the cylindrical shell to keep neutral buoyancy with optimized thickness in deep-sea applications.

In this study, the dynamic structural behavior of pressure vessels due to pressure pulse initiated by implosion of neighbouring airbacked equipments including Unmanned Underwater Vehicles (UUV), sensor system, and so on were dealt with for the structural design and safety assessment of pressure hulls of submarine. The dynamic buckling and collapse responses of pressure vessel in deep sea were investigated considering the effects of initial hydrostatic pressure and fluid-structure interactions. The governing equations for circular cylindrical shells were formulated theoretically assuming a relatively simple displacement fields and the derived nonlinear simultaneous ordinary differential equations were analysed by developed numerical solution algorithm. Finally, the introduced safety assessment procedures for the dynamic buckling behaviors of pressure hulls due to implosion pressure pulse were validated by comparing the theoretical analysis results with those of experiments for examples of simple cylinders.

A Semi-Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (SAUV), capable of simple work on the seabed, is under development in KRISO-KORDI. This SAUV pressure vessel is composed of fiberglass reinforced plastic (FRP), and is also manufactured to carry electronic equipment. The objective of this paper is to describe the safety check for the pressure vessel. This is achieved fly conducting structural analysis and testing in a pressure tank. Strain and stress test results, under unit load, are obtained fly using ANSYS in linear structural analysis. Local buckling analysis are performed with NASTRAN at the middle oj the cylindrical hull. The first test, using linear structural analysis, is unsuccessful, as buckling occurred. During the second test, linear structural analysis, combined with local buckling analysis, is conducted. There is no buckling up to 250 m when both ANSYS and NASTRAN are used.

잠수함 설계는, 내압(내압)성능 유지를 위해 효과적인 공간 활용이 어려운 원통형의 구조를 가질 뿐 아니라 제한된 공간에 다양한 장비들을 배치해야 하고,수 심 수백 미터의 극한 환경에서 3차원 운동을 하는 등의 환경 및 운용특성으로 인하여 수상 선박에 비해 많은 경험과 고난도의 기술들이 요구된다. 본문에서는, 해외의 유수한 대학 및 설계 기관과의 공동설계를 수행한 경험과 13년여에 걸친 장보고급 잠수함 건조기간 중에 수행한 수 차례의 역설계 과정 등을 통하여 습득한 설계 기술과 자료들을 바탕으로, 대우조선해양에서 자체 개발한 잠수함 기본설계 시스템(SUB-21)을 이용하여 수행한 중형잠수함 설계결과에 대해 간략하게 소개하고자 한다. 본 SUB-21의 개발은 잠수함 기본설계의 핵심 과정인 배치, 선형개발, 저항, 추진, 조종 및 압력선체 설계뿐만 아니라 디젤발전기-축전지-추진전동기로 구성되는 추진계통의 최적화 과정을 실시간으로 처리할 수 있기 때문에 기본설계에 소요되는 시간을 획기적으로 절감할 수 있으며 기본설계 결과의 신뢰성 제고에 크게 기여할 수 있을 것이다.

The results of an experimental and analytical study of composite pressure hull on buckling pressure are presented for URN 300. We predicted the buckling and post buckling analysis of composite laminated cylindrical shell and panel under external compression by using ABAQUS/Standard[Ver 6.4]. To obtain nonlinear static equilibrium solutions for unstable problems, where the load-displacement response can exhibit the type of nonlinear buckling behavior, during periods of the response, the load and/or the displacement may decrease as the solution evolves, used the modified Riks method. Experiments were conducted to verify the validation of present analysis for cross-ply laminated shells. The shells considered in the study have four different lamination patterns, [${\pm}{\Theta}$/0/90]$_{14s}$,[${\pm}{\Theta}_{14}$/$0_{14}$/$90_{14}$],[${\pm}$45/0/90]$_{18s}$ and [/0/90]$_{18s}$. At the result of this study, the optimized ply orientation angle is $75^{\circ}$. The critical load from experiment is 69% of that of numerical analysis, because the fracture of matrix was generated before buckling. So URN 300 is not proper to use at the condition under high external pressure.

A Semi-Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (SAUV) capable of simple work at sea bed is under development in KRISO-KORDI. A pressure vessel of SAUV which is composed of FRP was manufactured to load electronic equipments. The objective of this paper is to verify the safety of the pressure vessel through conducting the structural analysis and test in pressure tank. Strain and stress under unit load were obtained by using ANSYS in the linear structural analysis. And local buckling analysis was performed with NASTRAN for the middle cylindrical hull. For the pressure test, strains were measured at three point. We found that the results by linear structural analysis and experiment are coincide well at the points where buckling does not occur. Maximum depth was estimated to be 250m by the local buckling analysis.

This paper presents the results of the structural analysis and the optimization of a 6,500 m manned submersible. Nonlinear structural analysis for imperfect spheres with the maximum allowable out-of-roundness(OOR) was performed to calculate the thickness of the pressure hull. Dimensions of viewports were determined according to ASME PVHO standard. The design optimization of the spherical hull with openings was divided into two steps - the optimization of the detailed shape of the viewport reinforcements and the optimization of the viewport location in the spherical pressure hull.

The use of high tensile steel plates is increasing in the fabrication of ship and offshore structures. In usual, plate element contributes to inplane stiffness against the action of inplane load. If the plate element has local corrosion, its load carrying capacity under inplane load is expected to be reduced. Until now, however, the research report concerned with this topic has not seen. In this study, a basic study which clarifies the influence of local corrosion on the ultimate collapse strength of plate element subjected to axial compression is carried out by using elasto-platic large deformation finite element analysis. In particular, influence of corrosive area, corrosive thickness and slenderness ratio of dented plate is investigated.
