Ice resistance on ice-transiting vessels is one of th￡ important issues concerning th￡ design of ships with ice classes. In this study, th￡ development of GUI software for estimation of ice resistance on ice-transiting vessels is discussed. lee resistance estimation equations, based on model tests and full-scale sea trial data from many previous research articles, are studied in conjunction with two ship categories i.e., ,icebreakers/supply/tug vessels and ice-strengthened cargo vessels. lee resistance estimation equations are summarized in common format and are compared with each other. The GUI software 'Ice View,' written in MS Visual Basic language, can calculate ice resistances according to varying ice thickness and ship speed. The software can provide the calculated results, with suitable tables and graphs, for easy comparison of each ice resistance estimation equation.

본 논문에서는 극지 빙해역을 운항하는 쇄빙선박이나 해양구조물에 작용하는 해빙의 재료특성을 계측할 수 있는 간이 실험 장비를 제작하였다. 극지 빙해역을 운항하는 쇄빙선박의 빙저항이나 해양구조물에 작용하는 빙하중을 추정하기 위해서 극지 현장에서 실규모의 시험을 수행하게 되는데, 저온과 얼음이라는 악조건을 극복하기 위한 빙역학 기술과 특수 장비가 필요하다. 국내에 한국해양연구원 MOERI 빙해수조가 완공됨에 따라 얼음의 특성을 고려한 모형빙 재료특성 시험용 계측장비가 일부 마련이 되었으나 빙해역 현장 시험에 대한 경험이 전무하며, 계측장비에 대한 지식과 기술 역시 확보되지 못한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 차후 쇄빙연구선 ARAON호를 이용한 빙해역의 실선계측 시 해빙의 강도를 측정하기 위한 계측시스템 마련의 일환으로 시험편 획득을 위한 코어링 장비와, 해빙의 재료특성 중 1축 압축강도를 측정하기 위한 간이 압축시험기 그리고 얼음의 결정구조를 파악하기 위한 편광기를 제작하였다. 또한 극지 현장실험에 적용할 실험기법 확보를 위한 일련의 과정을 마련하기 위해 제작된 장비를 이용해 소양호에서 현장실험을 수행하였고 계측된 결과를 참고문헌과 비교해본 결과 유사한 값을 갖는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

Ice load is one of the important design parameters for the construction of icebreaking vessels. In this paper, the design ice load prediction for the icebreaking vessels under normal operating condition in ice-covered sea is discussed. The ice loads under normal operating condition are expected from sea trials in moderate ice conditions. In this sense the extreme ice loads during heavy ramming or accidental collision are not considered. Current study describes the global ice load on the hull of the icebreaking vessels. Available ice load data from full-scale sea trials are collected and analyzed according to various ship-ice interaction parameters including displacement, stem angle, speed of a ship and flexural strength and thickness of sea ice. The ice load prediction formula is compared with the collected full-scale sea trials data and it shows a good agreement.

북극해 주변에 부존된 석유자원의 선점과 기득권을 확보하기 위한 선진 각국의 노력은 2010년대부터는 쇄빙선박과 빙해구조물의 수요 증가로 나타날 것이라 전망된다. 국내 산업계도 빙해역의 자원개발과 북극해를 통한 물류수송의 증가에 신속하게 대비할 필요가 있다. 본 논문에서는 북극해 항로의 역사와 자연환경에 대하여 설명하고, 북극해 항로의 경제성과 북극해를 통한 선박운항 전망에 대하여 논의하며 아울러 북극해 항로 이용에 필요한 제반의 경제적, 기술적 문제점에 대하여 기술한다.

In this paper, one of the widely-used ice resistance prediction methods, introduced by Spencer(1992) of the Institute for Ocean Technology, Canada, is reviewed. Spencer's component-based scaling system for ship-ice model tests is analysed to estimate the ice resistance of various types of icebreaking vessels (Canadian MV Arctic, Terry Fox, R-Class icebreaker, US icebreakers Polar Star and Healy, Russian SA-15 cargo ships, Japanese PM Teshio and a model ship). The general form and the non-dimensional coefficients in ice resistance prediction formula are obtained using the published ice model test and full-scale sea trial data. The applicability of Spencer's method on R-Class icebreaker is discussed to estimate ice resistance for the larger icebreaking cargo vessels. Additional parameters to account for the difference in hull forms of icebreakers and cargo vessels are recommended to be included in the Spencer's original ice resistance prediction formula.

In this paper, a numerical analysis technique using a body force model is investigated to estimate the available net thrust of multi-pod-driven ice-breaking vessels under bollard pull and overload conditions. To employ the body force model in present flow simulations, drag and thrust components acting on the pod unit are calculated by using Propeller Open Water (POW) test data. The available net thrusts according to the direction of operation are evaluated in both bollard pull and overload conditions under deep water. The simulation results are compared with the model test data. The available net thrusts, calculated by the present analysis for ahead operating modes at 3~6 knots which are typical speeds of the target vessel in arctic field, are agreed well with the model test results. It is also found that the present result for astern operating mode appears approximately 6 % larger than the model test result. In addition, the available net thrusts are calculated under the both operating conditions accompanied by shallow water effects, and the main cause of the difference is studied. Based on the result of the present study, it is confirmed that the body force model can be applied to the performance evaluation of multi-pod propulsion system and the main engine selection in early design stage of the vessel.

This paper presents a study on the crashworthiness of the scaled-down stiffened panels used on a Korean icebreaker. In order to validate the crashworthiness of the panels, this paper provides various mechanical properties such as the results of a CVN test, quasi-static tensile test, and high-speed tensile test at arctic temperatures. Two types of steels (EH32 and FH32) were chosen for the material tests. CVN tests revealed that the two steels were equivalent up to −60℃ in terms of their impact energy absorption capacity. However, the toughness of FH32 was significantly superior to that of EH32. EH32 showed slightly higher flow stresses at all temperature levels compared to FH32. The improvement ratios of the yield strengths, tensile strengths, plastic hardening exponents, etc. for FH32, which were obtained from quasi-static tensile tests, showed an apparent ascending tendency with a decrease in temperature. Dynamic tensile test results were obtained for the two temperatures levels of 20℃ and −60℃ with two plastic strain rate levels of 1 s⁻¹ and 100 s⁻¹. A closed form empirical formula proposed by Choung et al. (2011;2013) was shown to be effective at predicting the flow stress increase due to a strain rate increase.
