At the adjacent sea area of Busan Central Wharf, a variety of vessels, such as middle-large passenger ships, small fast sailing ships, container ships, cargo ships and working ships as well as small miscellaneous vessels are freely sailing comparatively without special steering and sailing Rules and marine traffic control because exclusive wharfs in accord with their purpose and use have been arranged in each wharf. In this research, we analyzed traffic stream and navigational characteristics of main traffic route based on statistics and distribution of tracks by ship's type and tonnage of the passing vessels after conducting marine traffic survey twice using exclusive software by targeting the sea area during the period of time. We examined the traffic safety of the passing vessels by classifying the sea area by each function based on the analysis about this traffic situation, and analyzing the effect by designating 'Buknea passage'. We also studied the plan for the effective rearrangement of Central Wharf considering basically the traffic safety oif arrival and departure in a point if view of navigators.

Recently, a lot of studies that applying the big data technology to various fields, are progressing actively. In the maritime domain, the big data is the meaningful information which makes and gathers by the navigation and communication equipment from the many ships on the ocean. Also, importance of the maritime safety is emphasized, because maritime accidents are rising with increasing of maritime traffic. To support prevention of maritime accidents, in this paper, we developed a vessel traffic display and statistic system based on AIS messages from the many vessels of maritime. Also, to verify the developed system, we conducted tests for vessel track display function and vessel traffic statistic function based on two test scenarios. Therefore, we verified the effectiveness of the developed system for vessel tracks display, abnormal navigation patterns, checking failure of AIS equipments and maritime traffic statistic analyses.

The International Maritime Organization (IMO) has issued international standards for ship maneuverability and stability. These have been established to improve marine safety and influence the direction of research. The previous literature has been researched, but there are few studies on the relationship between ship maneuverability and stability. This study carried out a fundamental experiment to quantitatively evaluate that relationship. Radius of turn and maximum heel angle depending on changing were analyzed through a turning test using a free running model ship. The test results show the change tendency of decreasing turn radius and increasng maximum heel angle according to a GM decrease. A rough estimate equation is proposed to predict the change tendency on radius of turn and angle of maximum heel as GM decreases. Many ships can suddenly experience reduced GM due to unexpected reasons during sailing. The results in this study can be used as fundamental data to estimate a ship's tactical turn diameter and variable heel angle for steering as GM decreases.

선박의 건조과정에서 필수적으로 선체 외판에는 선박의 안전과 운항 및 정비 등에 필요한 정보를 나타내기 위해 다양한 종류의 마크 및 문자가 마킹되어진다. 하지만, 단순한 도장 작업만으로는 해상과 같은 부식 환경에서 마크 및 문자가 쉽게 지워지거나 손상되기 때문에 마크 및 문자를 용접 비드(welding bead)로 표시하거나 미리 절단된 강판(steel plate)을 수동으로 용접한 뒤 도장을 함으로써 마크 및 문자의 손상을 방지하고 있다. 이러한 문자마킹작업을 하기 위해서는 작업자가 수작업으로 기준선과 마크 및 문자의 위치를 먹줄 등을 이용하여 마킹을 하고, 해당 마크 및 문자의 템플렛(template)을 이용하여 펀칭을 실시한 후 수동으로 용접을 실시한다. 하지만, 수작업을 통한 선체외판 문자마킹 작업은 작업자의 기량에 따라 품질이 상이하여 품질 저하의 원인이 된다. 또한 대조립 및 탑재 단계에서 문자 마킹 작업시 수직자세의 용접을 요구함으로써 작업자가 안전사고에 노출되어 있으며, 선박의 각 단계별 주요 공정보다 작업시간이 길어져 전체 선박 건조공정을 지연시키는 문제점 등을 야기시킬 수 있다. 이러한 문제점들을 해결하기 위해 조선업계에서는 선체 외판의 마크 및 문자를 자동으로 용접할 수 있는 장치를 개발하기 위해 노력해왔으며, 몇몇 개발 사례가 보고되고 있다. 하지만, 그 실효성 부분에서는 아직까지 해결하지 못한 문제점들로 인해 현장 적용에는 어려움을 보이고 있다. 본 연구에서는 선박외판 문자 자동용접장치의 기능성뿐만 아니라 현업 적용성을 가장 우선적으로 고려하여 문자마킹장치(Marking Robot for Shipbuilding) 개발을 진행하였다. 우선, 적절한 용접 재료를 선정하기 위해서 솔리드 와이어(Solid Wire)와 플럭스 코어드 와이어(Flux Cored Wire)에 대한 비드온 용접(Bead-On Welding)을 아래보기자세와 수직자세에 대해서 실시하여 적절한 용접 조건을 설정하였다. 본 연구에서 개발된 문자마킹 자동용접장치는 3축으로 구성되어 있으며 각 축들을 분리할 수 있도록 개발하여 이동성을 향상시켰으며, 작업면과 용접토치간의 거리를 일정하게 유지시킬 수 있도록 용접전류 센서(Welding Current Sensor)를 이용하여 토치 높이(Wire Extension)를 제어함으로써 균일한 품질의 용접비드를 얻을 수 있었다. 또한 문자마킹 자동용접장치는 본체 구동부와 제어부(Touch Screen)가 쉽게 분리되고 장착이 가능한 구조로 개발되었으며, 용접시 각 용접자세별로 용접전압, 전류 그리고 용접속도 설정이 가능하여 아래보기 자세뿐만 아니라 어떠한 자세에서도 같은 모양의 비드형상을 가지는 문자마킹용접이 가능하도록 개발하였으며, 이는 실험과 현장적용을 통해 검증하였다.

Recently, the number of tourists using cruise ships in Korea is increasing. and an big cruise ship with an gross tonnage of 160,000 tons or more has entered the domestic ports. Therefore, the government has been making a lot of efforts to confirm the cruise infrastructure for revitalization of the domestic cruise industry. However, there are no standards for cruise ship specifications and water facilities in the domestic port and fishery design standards. Currently, construction of dedicated cruise facilities is under way in major domestic ports. However, due to lack of specifications and domestic standards for cruise ships, it is difficult to design and license special facilities. Therefore, in this study, PIANC rule and domestic harbor and designing standard of fishing port were compared and analyzed in order to present the standard specification of cruise ships. And analyzed the representative linearity of cruises currently being operated. As a result of the ship characteristics analysis, There was a difference in coastal passenger ship in specifications and ship maneuverability. Therefore, in order to design facilities dedicated to cruising, the specifications of the target ship must be included in the domestic design standard. In addition, in order to calculate the scope of the target ship, I applied the coverage rate of 75% to the average specification value of the cruise ship and presented the standards of the cruise ship and the standard of the water area facilities.

As environmental regulations such as the International Maritime Organization (IMO)'s strategy to reduce greenhouse gases(GHG) are strengthened, technology development such as eco-friendly ships and alternative fuels is expanding. As part of this, ship propulsion technology using energy reduction and wind propulsion technology is emerging, especially in shipping companies and shipbuilders. By securing wind propulsion technology and introducing empirical research into shipbuilding and shipping, a high value-added market using eco-friendly technology can be created. Moreover, by reducing the fuel consumption rate of operating ships, GHG can be reduced by 6-8%. Rotor Sail (RS) technology is to generate a hydrodynamic lift in the vertical direction of the cylinder when the circular cylinder rotates at a constant speed and passes through the fluid. This is called the Magnus effect, and this study attempted to propose a plan to increase propulsion efficiency through a numerical analysis study on turbulence flow characteristics around RS, a wind power assistance propulsion system installed on a ship. Therefore, C_L and C_D values according to SR and AR changes were derived as parameters that affect the aerodynamic force of the RS, and the flow characteristics around the rotor sail were compared according to EP application.

Philippines as one of the developing countries in Asia which is compose of more than 7000 islands. Air, Water and Land transportation are the means of travel in the country, however, transportation of goods and services between islands takes place through RoRo ships. There are about 154 RoRo routes connecting the islands in the Philippines and since its establishment, the incomes of the municipalities near the ports have increased by 7%. It is because of the increase of tourist, decrease of cost of transportation and travel time. In order to improve some of the routes in the Philippines, the researcher would like to suggest that the shipping companies should consider to upgrade some vessels. That is to have a vessel with a high-capacity storage for vehicles and goods so that mass transportation made. Another is that the ports need to be upgraded as well.

Analysis has been made of the anti-corrosive property of organic coating under the shear stress of the flow by means of AC impedance method. Marine anti-corrosive painted panels were placed in the water channel with varying flow rate, thereby experiencing varying flow shear stress on the surfaces. The velocities of the salt water were ranged from 1.48 to 5.2 m/s and the coating thickness of from $70{\mu}m\;to\;140{\mu}m$. For all coating thicknesses investigated, the poorer anti-corrosive property and the lower adhesion strength have been found for the higher shear stress. It has been found that the shear stress accelerates the aging of organic marine coatings.
