An efficient and accurate scheme has been constructed by taking advantages of the hi-quadratic spline scheme and the higher-order boundary element method selectively depending on computation domains. Boundary surfaces are represented by 8-node boundary elements to describe curved surfaces of a ship and its neighboring free surface more accurately. The variation of the velocity potential complies with the characteristics of the 8-node element on the body surface. But on the free surface, it is assumed to follow that of the hi-quadratic spline scheme. By which, the free surface solution is free from numerical damping and has better numerical dispersion property. As numerical examples, steady and unsteady Neumann-Kelvin problems are considered. Numerical results for a submerged spheroid, Series 60($C_B=0.6$) and a modified support the proposed method. Finally, a new upstream radiation condition is derived using a wave equation operator in order to deal with problems for subcritical reduced frequency. The relevance of this operator has been confirmed in the case of unsteady Kelvin source potential.

Flow control devices, such as flow liners, are frequently introduced hi a cavitation tunnel in order to reduce the tunnel blockage effect, when a three-dimensional wake distribution is simulated using a complete ship model or a dummy model. In order to estimate the tunnel wall effect and to evaluate the effect of flow liners on the simulated wake distribution, a surface panel method is adopted for the calculation of the flow around a ship model and flow liners installed in a rectangular test section of a cavitation tunnel. Calculation results on the Sydney Express ship model show that the tunnel wall effect on the hull surface pressure distribution is negligible for less than 5% blockage and can be appreciable for more than 20% blockage. The flow liners accelerate the flow near the after body of the ship model, so that the pressure gradient there becomes more favorable and accordingly the boundary layer thickness would be reduced. Since the resulting wake distribution is assumed to resemble the full scale wake, flow liners can also be used to simulate an estimated full scale wake without modifying the ship model. Boundary layer calculation should be incorporated in order to correlate the calculated wake distribution with tole measured one.

Al-Mg 합금은 비중이 적고 강도가 우수하기 때문에 해양 환경에서 구조용 재료로 많이 사용되고 있으며, 특히 선박용 재료로 사용될 경우 선체의 중량을 줄일 수 있어 연료비가 절감되며 선속의 고속화가 가능하다. 그러나 해양환경에서의 재료 특성에 관한 지식 및 관련 기술 부족으로 알루미늄 선박 건조는 활성화 되지 못하고 있는 실정이다. 알루미늄 합금은 공기 중에서는 우수한 내식성을 지니는 것으로 알려져 있으나 해수환경에서는 염소이온에 의한 부동태 피막 파괴로 인해 내식성이 저하되며 공식 및 응력부식균열 등에 의한 손상이 발생할 수 있다. 특히 용접부의 경우, 모재에 비해 부식손상에 취약하며 기공과 같은 용접 결함을 포함하고 있어 구조물 파괴의 시발점이 될 수 있으므로 선박 및 구조물 건조시 대비가 필요하다. 그러나 이에 관한 충분한 연구가 이루어지지 않아 국내 중소형 조선소의 경우 알루미늄 선박 건조에 어려움을 겪는 경우가 많다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 선박 건조 및 해양 구조물에 널리 사용되는 Al 5083-H321 합금 용접부에 대하여 해수 내 부식 특성을 연구하고자 한다. 부식특성 파악을 위한 전기화학적 실험에 앞서 화학적 에칭을 통해 미세부위별 실험을 수행하였다. 기준전극은 은/염화은 전극을 대극은 백금전극을 사용하였으며, 타펠 분석을 위한 분극실험은 OCP를 기준으로 -0.25 ~ +0.25 V까지 실시하였고 양극분극실험은 OCP ~ +3.0 V까지 실시하였다. 양극분극 실험 후 부식된 표면은 주사전자현미경과 3D 분석을 통해 용접부 조직에 따른 전기화학적 특성을 관찰하였다.

A planing craft is designed specifically to achieve comparatively high speed on the surface of the water. The frictional resistance of planing craft can be reduced further by injecting air to the craft's bottom. In this paper, the resistance characteristics of high speed planing crafts with & without air injection at the bottom were compared by sea model-test method. As a result, we conformed that planing craft with air injection has much greater the effect of resistance reduction.

The radiation potential of a ship advancing in waves is studied using the 3D time-domain forward-speed free-surface Green function and the Green integral equation. Numerical solutions are obtained by making use of the 2nd order BEM(Boundary Element Method) which make it possible to take account of the line integral along the waterline in a rigorous manner. The 6 degree of freedom motion memory functions of a hemisphere and the Wigley seakeeping model obtained by direct integration of the time-domain 3D potentials over the wetted surface are presented for various Froude numbers.

In this study, Al and Zn arc thermal spray coatings were carried out onto the substrate of SS400 steel to improve corrosion resistance and durability of hull structural steel for ship in marine environment. Therefore cavitation-erosion test was conducted to evaluate the durability of painted and thermal spray coated specimens. And then the damaged surface morphology and weight loss were obtained to compare with each other, respectively. As a result, the painted specimen was the poorest cavitation resistance characteristics because surface damage behavior appeared to be exfoliated in bulk shape during the cavitation experiment. And Zn thermal spray coating layer presented the significant surface damage depth due to relatively low surface hardness and local cavitation damage tendency. On the other hand, as a result of the weight loss analysis, the painting layer presented the poorest cavitation resistance and the Al thermal spray coating layer relatively showed the best results after cavitation experiment.

최근 국민 소득향상과 더불어, 여가시간 증가에 따라 해양레저에 대한 관심이 크게 높아지고 있으며, 그에 따라 레저용 선박 수요도 증가하고 있다. 기존 국내 소형 선박의 경우 FRP(fiber-reinforced plastic)재료로 선박을 건조해 왔다. 그러나 해양환경 규제 강화로 FRP 선박의 건조가 감소하고 있으며, 친환경 선박에 대한 필요성이 대두되고 있다. 따라서 FRP재료를 대체하는 선박용 재료로 친환경적이고 가벼운 소재인 알루미늄 합금 재료가 선박건조 분야에서 각광을 받고 있다. 특히 5000계열 Al-Mg 합금은 가공성과 용접성이 우수하여 주로 구조용으로 많이 사용되고 있으나 경량화에 따른 빠른 선속이 유체충격을 증가시켜 선체에 캐비테이션 손상을 일으킬 수 있다. Al-Mg 합금의 경우에 부식성이 대단히 큰 해양환경에서 부식과 캐비테이션 침식이 복합적으로 일어나면 손상이 빠르게 증가되는 경향을 나타내어 선박의 수명을 현저히 단축시켜 경제적인 손실을 초래한다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 해수 내에서 Al-Mg 합금의 캐비테이션 저항성을 향상시키기 위해 알루미늄 합금 표면에 내식성 뿐만 아니라 경도 및 내마모성 등의 기계적 특성이 우수한 산화피막을 형성시키는 양극산화 기술을 적용하고, 다양한 봉공처리(sealing)방법에 따른 캐비테이션 특성을 평가하였다. 캐비테이션 실험은 압전(piezoelectric) 효과를 이용한 진동발생 장치를 사용하여 $30{\mu}m$ 진폭으로 일정하게 유지하였으며, 시편과 혼 팁 사이의 간격은 1mm로 하였다. 캐비테이션 실험 후에는 시편을 초음파 세척하여 진공 건조기에서 24시간 이상 건조한 후 정밀저울로 무게를 측정하였으며, 표면 손상 형상을 분석하기 위해 주사전자현미경(SEM)과 3D현미경을 이용하여 관찰하였다.

A potential-based panel method has been developed for numerical computation of wave resistance on a hybrid hydrofoil. Hybrid hydrofoil is composed of a main body, two struts and two hydrofoils. The main body, which is assumed to be an axisymmetric body for the present analysis, is normally used to support displacement of a body with its buoyancy. Normal dipoles and the sources are distributed on the body(main body, struts, hydrofoils) and the sources are distributed on the free surface. Linearized free surface and the radiation conditions are satisfied using the fourth order finite difference operator and the semi-linear pressure Kutta condition is used for the numerical computation of the hydrofoils. Poisson type free surface condition has been used for the numerical computation and hyperboloidal panel method has been used for better numerical accuracy. To verify this numeric method, model tests are performed in circulation water channel. From the comparison of experimental results with numeric ones, the present method can be used as a useful tool for the design of high speed vessels.

In this paper the developed prediction technique of wave-making resistance performance for a ship attached with a vertical blade had been verified. Numerical analysis program as a prediction technique had been developed using the Rankine source panel method and the vortex lattice method(VLM). The nonlinearity of the free surface conditions was fully taken into account using the iterative method and the trim and the sinkage of the ship were also considered in the numerical analysis program. Panel cutting method was applied to get hull surface panels. Numerical computations were carried out for a 4000TEU container carrier and the vertical blade was attached 6 different locations astern. To investigate the validity of the numerical analysis program the commercial viscous flow field analysis program FLUENT was used to obtain the viscous flow field around the ship and the model test was performed. The model test results were compared with the numerical analysis results.

A three-dimensional time-domain calculation method is of crucial importance in prediction of the motions and wave loads of a ship advancing in a severe irregular sea. The exact solution of the free surface wave-ship interaction problem is very complicated because of the essentially nonlinear boundary conditions. In this paper, an approximate body nonlinear approach based on the three-dimensional time-domain forward-speed free-surface Green function has been presented. The Froude-Krylov force and the hydrostatic restoring force are calculated over the instantaneous wetted surface of the ship while the forces due to the radiation and scattering potentials over the mean wetted surface. The time-domain radiation and scattering potentials have been obtained from a time invariant kernel of integral equations for the potentials which are discretized according to the second-order boundary element method (Hong and Hong 2008). The diffraction impulse-response functions of the Wigley seakeeping model advancing in transient head waves at various Froude numbers have been presented. A simulation of coupled heave-pitch motion of a long rectangular barge advancing in regular head waves of large amplitude has been carried out. Comparisons between the linear and the approximate body nonlinear numerical results of motions and wave loads of the barge at a nonzero Froude number have been made.
