The Busan-Ulsan-Gyeongsangmando(BuUlGyeong) megacity aims to grow into the second metropolitan area by strengthening the growth and connectivity of the southeast region in Korea. In order to analyze the linkage between port logistics and regional economic development, this study focused on the economic community of BuUlGyeong. The findings are as follows. First, it was found that vessel entry and departure had a positive (+) significant effect on cargo volume. Second, the cargo volume was found to have a preemptive effect on the vessel entry and exit ports and the composite index. Third, the composite Index was found to have a significant positive (+) effect on cargo volume. From the results of the variance decomposition, it can be confirmed that the composite index has a weak impact on ship entry/exit and cargo volume. Based on the above findings, some policy implications are derived. First, regional governments in BuUlGyeong should provide incentives to revitalize the maritime economy such as the expansion of maritime port infrastructure and encouraging investment. Second, since an increase in cargo transport volume at major national ports linked to the BuUlGyeong region has a positive (+) effect on economy. Therefore it is necessary to expand actively port marketing and regular service for the country and ports. Third, investments should be made continuously to expand the marine port infrastructure such as the expansion of facilities so that global shipping companies can continue to call megacities in BuUlGyeong ports for super-large ships and cruises.

Ship noise is one of the important factors for the living and health of seafarers, and ef orts to reduce ship noise are actively underway. There are two methods of noise reduction: passive noise Control (PNC) and active noise control (ANC). Unlike cars and airplanes, ANC is not widely used for noise reduction on ships. This study aimed to reduce the noise generated in the engine room by using soundproof panels and high-frequency vibration generators, as well as active noise control (ANC). For this purpose, an experimental model was made using an acrylic box, and the noise reduction effect was measured under four conditions. The experimental results are as follows: First, the soundproof panel had a noise reduction effect in all ranges from 55 dB to 85 dB. In the case of using a high-frequency vibration generator, there was no ef ect in the low noise range such as 55 dB(A), but there was a noise reduction effect in the high noise range such as 70.8 dB(A) and 85 dB(A).Second, when the soundproof panel and the high-frequency vibration generator were used simultaneously, the noise reduction ef ect was up to -2.2 dB(A). The results of this experiment were obtained from an experimental model made of acrylic, and they may be different from actual ships made of steel plate. In future studies, we plan to experiment using iron plate (considering the material, thickness, and structure) used in actual ships. We hope that this study will help to improve the living environment and health of seafarers on ships.

According to previous studies, the key factor in determining the loan interest rate for shipping companies is the default risk premium. Therefore, this study analyzes the determinants of the risk premium of shipping loans using a multiple linear regression model. With the risk premium as the dependent variable, a total of 10 independent variables are selected, including three factors: loan characteristics, borrower's creditworthiness, and economic situation. Samples are 82 shipping loans supported by Bank A from 2014 to 2022. As a result, borrower's creditworthiness(current ratio, debt ratio, firm age) and economic situation(freight index) affect the risk premium in analysis for all samples. It is found that borrower's creditworthiness has some influence on the risk premium for container ships(current ratio, cash holding ratio, debt ratio, operating income to sales) and bulk carriers(debt ratio, firm age). Market situation affects the risk premium in gas carriers. However, in the model targeting tanker ships, unlike previous studies, all factors have no effect on the risk premium.

The primary objective of the current work is to predict speed performance of the medium patrol boat over $F_N=0.5$ employing experimental materials based on the CFD before model tests. In other words, the predicted brake powers according to ship speeds are assessed satisfying the main engine capacity. The subject ships are selected the two different stern hull forms. The flow computation are conducted considering free surface and dynamic trim using a commercial CFD code(STAR-CCM+). The resistances of the bare-hull are obtained from CFD. Wave patterns, pressures and limiting streamlines on the hull and velocity distribution in the propeller plane for the two hull forms are compared using CFD. The effective powers of the object ships are assessed based on CFD. Resistance increase according to the attached appendages and quasi-propulsive efficiency are employed the experimental datas. Speed performance prediction method concerning high speed vessels like a medium patrol boat is developed employing CFD and experimental data.

This study empirically examines the dynamic specification of the ship price model based on a vector autoregressive model and data covering from January 2000 to October 2014. Our results are summarized as follows: first, the relationship between ship price and interest rate shows significantly negative and the relationship between ship price and freight rate shows positive. It provides consistent implication that ship price depends on interest rate and freight rate under the dynamic Gordon model. Second, we apply an impulse response analysis to ship price and find the responses of the ship price from both factors, interest rate and freight rate, which affect during seven periods approximately. Finally, the results of a variance decomposition indicate that freight rate is more important than interest rate on the ship price.

There are the C.W.C and Towing Tank to the model-test equipments of the boat. A model testing of the high speed boat have a difficult in the performance verification because of very a small the scale-ratio of the ship-model and restricted by flow-velocity of the C.W.C and X-carriage velocity of the T.T. In general, the stepped hull boat is a high of fuel-efficiency because of the resistance reduction by a small wetted surface-area in correspond without stepped-hull boat. But It have a tendency to be bad the rolling performance by reduced stern wetted-area In this paper, the high speed stepped planning-boats with & without attached a stern body were performed to compare the effect of resistance and rolling performance by using sea model-test method.

This paper suggested an efficient mathematical model for strategic alliance of liner shipping companies. Even though a few previous research papers proposed the mathematical models for container slot chartering and allocation under liner shipping, those models were nonlinear and very difficult to solve. So their models had limits to apply them to real world problems. On the other hand, the model suggested in this paper is easy to solve and apply to real world problems because it is a integer linear programming model. This paper tried to apply the model to the same example problem as used in existing research paper. Excel add-in program, Premium Solver Platform was used to solve the problem and the optimal allocation and slot chartering for containers were able to be found easily. The result also showed that the total container shipping cost for applying the strategic alliance model was reduced compared to non-strategic alliance model.

선박에너지 개발을 위한 미래의 유력한 추진체로서 초전도 자력장을 이용한 선박을 들 수 있는데 이와 같은 경우에는 실험을 하기에는 비용이 엄청나게 소요되고 설비 자체가 복잡하기 때문에 CFD를 이용해서 초기 계\ulcorner을 구상하고 선체 주위의 유동장의 제어 및 기초 설계를 하여야 할 것이다. CFD계산을 통해 일반적으로 얻을 수 있는 것은 -압력 분포 -자유 표면 파고 -유속 분포 -유선 추적 -선체 표면의 응력 분포 -한계 유선 분포 -선미 와류 생성 과정 -선체 저항 계산 등으로 선형 개발에 필요한 기본 자료들이다. 여기서 CFD의 유용가치를 강조할 수 있는데 위의 많은 데이터를 실험을 통해서 얻으려면 막대한 경비와 노력이 투입되어야 한다. 또한 현재의 실험 시설로는 정량적으로 측정할 수 없는 부분도 일부 있다. CFD의 경우는 그러한 어려움은 없으나 꼭 필요한 것이 수치계산의 검증이다. 계산 결과의 유효성(validity)을 검증해야 한다는 의미이다. 계산은 실험을 통하여 반드시 비교 검토가 이루어져야 하며 이의 수단으로 선박 분 야에서는 Wigley 모형이나 Series 60와 같은 것들이 사용되고 잇다. 당 연구소의 저항추진연구 실에서는 CFD의 연구가 수년 전부터 소수의 인원을 중심으로 이루어져 왔다. 이와 관련하여 대표적인 몇 가지만 소개하고자 한다.

최근 선박의 대형화, 고속화로 인하여 추진기의 부하가 증가되고 있으며, 특히 최근 등장한 1,000TEU급 콘테이너선의 경우 추진기가 흡수해야되는 축마력이 70,000HP 이상인 경우도 잇다. 커다란 축마력을 흡수하여 선박을 빠른 속도로 추진시켜야 되는 최근의 추진기는 작동 원리상 캐비테이션 발생을 피할 수 없으며 캐비테이션 발생량의 허용범위 및 캐비테이션 거동의 특성을 고려하여 추진기를 설계하여야 된다. 캐비테이션의 여유가 없이 추진기 설계가 수행되기 때문에 추진기 캐비테이션의 성능해석은 엄밀한 정밀도가 요구된다. 캐비테이션이란 일정한 온도에서 유체동력학 작용에 의해서 유체주위의 압력이 일정한 압력(예 : 증기압) 이하로 낮아질 때 물이 기화하여 수증기로 변하면서 빈 공간을 형성하는 현상을 말한다. 이렇게 발생된 캐비티는 주위 압력환경에 따라 생성, 성장, 수축, 붕괴의 과정을 거치게 된다. 특히 붕괴의 과정은 짧은 시간 내에 급격히 진행되기 때문에 진동 및 소음의 원인이 되고, 심할 경우 추진기 혹은 주위 물체 표면에 침식작용의 원인이 되기도 한다. 본 고에서는 캐비테이션의 물리적 특성 및 분류방법을 간단히 소개하고, 캐비테이션에 의한 선박추진기의 성능저하 특성 및 모형시험 기법을 이용한 캐비테이션 성능해석법을 소개하였다.
