As international environmental regulations on ship emissions are gradually strengthened, interest in electric propulsion and hybrid propulsion ships is increasing, and various solutions are being developed and applied to these ships, especially stabilization of the power system and system efficiency. The direct current distribution system is being applied as a way to increase the power. In addition, verification and testing of safety and performance of marine DC distribution systems is required. As a result of establishing a DC distribution test bed, verifying the performance of the DC distribution (variable speed power generation) system, and analyzing fuel consumption, this study applied a variable speed power generation system that is applied to DC power distribution for ships, and converted the power output from the generator into a rectifier. A system was developed to convert direct current power to connect to the system and monitor and control these devices. Through tests using this DC distribution system, the maximum voltage was 751.5V and the minimum voltage was 731.4V, and the voltage fluctuation rate was 2.7%, confirming that the voltage is stably supplied within 3%, and a variable speed power generation system was installed according to load fluctuations. When applied, it was confirmed through testing that fuel consumption could be reduced by more than 20% depending on the section compared to the existing constant speed power generation system.

The rolling motion of a floating body makes crews and passengers exhausted and/or applies forces to the structure to cause damage; it might even upset the body. Therefore, almost all ships are equipped with bilge keels for anti-rolling; in special cases, an anti-rolling tank(ART) or fin stabilizer or gyroscope could be installed. But an ART requires a large capacity to install it, and a fin stabilizer and gyroscope need great costs to install and also many expenses to operate. The authors suggest the use of an anti-rolling pendulum(ARP), and they showed that the ARP is effective to reduce rolling by experiments and via a Runge-Kutta analysis. This paper introduces the linearized 2 degrees of freedom with a viscous damping system for a ship equipped with ARP; it also shows the validation of the linearized analysis for the ship's roll motion. The paper proposes an optimum ARP on the basis of the justified model. The case of the 7.7kg model with ship 20g ARP of a mass ratio of 0.26%, is the most effective for reducing roll motion. The paper shows the ARPs with various mass ratios are effective for reducing the roll motion of a ship by free decaying roll experiments.

Lab scale experiment study was carried out for biological process development on cruise. SBR(Sequence Batch Reactor), MBR(Membrane Bioreactor), and MSBR(Membrane Sequence Batch Reactor) system were investigated for practical application on shipboard sewage treatment. From the results it was suggested that MSBR system might be suitable process for cruise in terms of pollutant removal efficiency, maintenance and special environmental conditions of cruise. About 99% of BOD, 98% of COD and 99% of SS were removed in MSBR system. In addition, about 76% of total nitrogen was reduced and the total phosphorus reduction averaged 59%.

Lab scale experiment study was carried out for biological treatment process development in cruise. SBR(Sequence Batch Reactor) process with BM(Beneficial Microorganisms) was investigated for practical application on shipboard sewage treatment. From the results it was suggested that SBR process with BM might be a suitable process for advanced cruise sewage treatment in terms of decrease in T-N and T-P, maintenance of useful microorganisms and control of sludge bulking. By adding BM to SBR system, about 40% of EPS in sludge was increased, about 74% of total nitrogen was reduced and the total phosphorus reduction averaged 75%.

A tugboat (tug) is a boat that maneuvers vessels by pushing or towing them. Tugs move vessels that should not move themselves alone, such as ships in a crowded harbor or a narrow canal, or those that cannot move themselves, such as barges, disabled ships, or oil platforms. Tugboats are powerful for their size and strongly built, some are ocean-going. Historically tugboats were the first seagoing vessels to receive steam propulsion, freedom from the restraint of the wind, and capability of going in any direction. As such, they were employed in harbors to assist ships in docking and departure. Towage is in essence a service by one vessel to another vessel for a fixed remuneration. The most common reason for requiring this service is the lack of its own motive power. Conventionally, towage is defined as "the employment of one vessel to expedite the voyage of another, when nothing more is required than the accelerating of her progress". Apart from accelerating vessels, acquiring towage service is a common practice for towing barges, platform of drilling oil, floating ship yards, etc.

The purpose of this paper is to provide the unbalanced magnetic force and vibration mode comparison between two large interior permanent magnet machines(IPM) with different pole-slot combination considering stator and rotor eccentricity. Due to the punching tolerance, the mixed eccentricity of air-gap is inevitable. It will generate the asymmetric magnetic flux density in air-gap, which makes the unbalanced magnetic pull and vibration. The study is focused on the unbalanced magnetic force and their harmonic components according to eccentricity conditions such as static, dynamic and mixed. When the high vibration is produced especially resonance, the obtained results provide clues what eccentricity condition occurs in the machine.

프로펠러 캐비테이션은 선체진동 및 수중소음에 악영향을 끼치는 주요한 원인중의 하나로 생각되어왔다. 그러나 근래 선박의 고속화와 프로펠러 하중의 증가로 캐비테이션이 전혀 없는 프로펠러의 설계개념 적용은 사실상 불가능하다. 고스큐 프로펠러는 기존의 프로펠러와 비교하여 수중소음과 저주파 압력 펄스를 약하게 하는데 유리한 것으로 인식되고 있다. 변동압력에 대하여 프로펠러 스큐와 레이크의 영향을 조사하기 위하여 체계적인 실험을 캐비테이션 터널에서 수행하였으며 본 논문에서는 여러 가지 스큐와 레이크 분포를 갖는 모형 프로펠러에 대한 캐비테이션 관찰시험과 변동압력 계측결과에 대하여 논의하고 토론하였다. 연구 결과 고스큐는 균일류 및 불균일류에서 공히 변동압력 경감에 효ㄱ과가 있음이 확인되었는데 이는 아마도 날개에서의 캐비테이션 안정성에 의한 것으로 예측된다. 그러나 레이크는 날개에서의 캐비티 크기나 거동에 큰 영향을 주지 못하였으며, 변동압력이 또한 거의 같은 수준으로 나타나는 결과를 가져왔다.
