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.

This paper describes a design and performance evaluation of robust controller which overrides unstable motion and pulls out quickly after water entry of underwater vehicle dropped from aircraft or surface ship. We use 6-DOF equation for model of motions and assume parameter uncertainty to reflect the difference of real motion from modelled motion equation. we represent a nonlinear system with uncertainty as Takagi and Sugeno's(T-S) fuzzy models and design controller stabilizing them. The fuzzy controller utilizes the concept of so-called parallel distributed compensation (PDC). Finally, we confirm stability and performance of the controller through computer simulation and hardware in the loop simulation (HILS).

Oil drop formation during the underwater oil discharge is investigated experimentally. The focus is placed on the size of the drops formed with the variation of discharge speed and nozzle diameter. As the Reynolds number based on the nozzle diameter increases, the droplet size decreases first and then increases until an explosive atomization occurs. The length of the jet attached to the nozzle Increases with the Reynolds number and then decreases. The transition occurs when the flow becomes asymmetry.

Submerged floating tunnel (SFT) is a type of tunnel that allows tunnel segments to float underwater by buoyancy, and is being actively studied in recent years. When the submerged floating tunnel is connected to the ground, the tunnel and the bored tunnel inside the ground must be connected. There is risk that the stress will be concentrated at the connection between the two tunnels due to the different constraints and behavior of the two tunnels. Therefore, special design and construction methods should be applied to ensure the stability around the connection. However, previous studies on the stability at the connection site have not been sufficiently carried out, so study on the basic stage of the stability at connection site are necessary. In this study, numerical analysis simulating the connection between submerged floating tunnel and the bored tunnel confirmed that the shear strain concentration occurred in the ground around the connection, and it was analyzed that the structural factors can be handled during construction to have effects on the stability of the ground around the connection. Numerical results show that the risks from disproportionate displacements in the two tunnels can be mitigated through the construction of grouting material and joint design. Although the results from this study are qualitative results, it is expected that it will contribute to the determination of structural factors and risk areas that should be considered in the design of connections between the submerged floating tunnel and bored tunnel in the future studies.

Fiber-optic cables towed by underwater vehicles have an important role in enhancing the mission capability of a mother ship. In general, fiber optic cables are unwound in water for securing unwinding stability and preventing unwinding-related problems. Therefore, in this study, the numerically simulated result is verified against the experimental result in water, and the cable-unwinding motion is predicted based on the increase in unwinding velocity. The experimental apparatus is composed of a water tank and a winder, and a high-speed camera is used for photographing the cable-unwinding motion. The numerical result defined in the Cartesian coordinate system is solved using a transient-state unwinding equation of motion. The numerical result agrees well with the experimental result, and it can predict cable-unwinding behaviors in according to an increase in the unwinding velocity.

In this study, parametric analyses are performed using the coupled Eulerian-Lagrangian scheme for the collision behaviors of a vessel and an underwater slope that constitutes part of an artificial protective island. The vessel parameters considered in the analysis are bow angle, stem angle, draft, and impact velocity. The gradient of the slope, the friction coefficient between the bow and the slope, and soil strength are considered as parameters of the slope. For each parameter, the dissipated collision energy and the collision force are estimated from the behavior of the vessel, and the energy dissipation mechanism is identified in terms of the ground deformation. The collision force is assumed as an exponential function, and the effects of the parameters are estimated. As a result, only two parameters, the gradient of the slope and the friction coefficient between the vessel and the soil, can affect the exponential coefficient of the function. The dissipated energy by the soil can thus be estimated adequately. The relationship between the volume of the soil pushed out by the bow and the dissipated collision energy is estimated as a linear function. This relationship is independent of the magnitude of the collision energy, and affected more by the friction coefficient and the soil strength than by the parameters of the vessel.

The purpose of this study is to suggest environmental guidelines for the conservation of ceramics excavated from underwater. Accordingly, the conditional change of the soluble salt on surface of the excavated ceramics was examined by changing the relative humidity. Examining the relative ratio [high humidity(RH70%+RH80%)/low humidity(RH20%+ RH40%)] for 24 weeks using accumulated conductivity(${\mu}s/cm$), the result showed that the amount of ion elution increased more in high humidity than in low humidity. In particular, the ion elution increased significantly within the celadon sample. In addition, comparing the accumulated conductivity and physical characteristics of the samples in high humidity, the results indicated that the amount of the ion elution is proportioned to the increased rate of the sample's absorption capacity and porosity. Ceramics excavated from underwater has risks of the secondary physical and chemical attacks from remaining salts. Therefore, it is suggested these ceramics be stored in a storage which maintains proper temperature and low humidity conditions. Also, the collections need to be pre-classified according to the properties of the materials.

It was possible to understand the adsorption characteristics of ions in aqueous environment based on the variations of PZC and IEP of particles when adsorption of ions on particle surface occurred. The specific adsorption of $Cu^{2+}$ ion upon chalcopyrite surface provoked a lowered PZC, which was considered to be due to increased adsorption of OH- ion via the electrostatic attraction between the two ions. On the contrary, IEP of chalcopyrite was observed to rise when Cu2+ was specifically adsorbed on its surface. The reason for this could be explained by the necessity of the increase of pH to offset the positively increased surface potential of chalcopyrite for the reestablishment of IEP. Neither PZC or IEP of chalcopyrite was observed to change when non-specific adsorption occurred since no change in the surface potential of chalcopyrite was invoked under this condition.

Mesoporous silicate materials have been used as adsorbents for the removal of heavy metals from water by introducing functional groups such as thiol and amine. In this research, it was investigated whether surfactants used as templating agents in synthetic processes can act as adsorption sites for heavy metals. Three mesoporous silicates-SBA-15, MCM-41, and HMS were synthesized using, respectively, block copolymer, hexadecyltrimethylammoniumbromide (HDTMA), and dodecyamine as surfactants. X-ray diffraction and $N_2$ gas adsorption analysis confirmed that the mesoporous silicates were well prepared and FT-IR spectra resulted in the existence of the surfactants in as-synthesized mesoporous silicates and the removal of surfactants after calcination. The interactions between $Pb^{2+}$ ions and the mesoporous silicate materials with/without surfactants were observed. In adsorption kinetic experiments, it revealed that the calcined mesoporous silicates and the surfactant-loaded SBA-15 almost had no adsorption capacity for $Pb^{2+}$ ions. In contrast, the surfactant-loaded MCM-41 and HMS showed, respectively, the adsorption capacities of 26.60 and 115.16 mg/g which were acquired through the fits of adsorption kinetic data to the pseudo second order kinetic model. The adsorption capacities were comparable to those of other mesoporous adsorbents for heavy metals.

As a preliminary study on the spray behavior characteristics of emulsified fuel, the fuel properties (viscosity, surface tension, and density) and evaporation characteristics of a fuel droplet were investigated. The emulsified fuel was made by mixing diesel and $H_2O_2$. In addition, the macroscopic spray behavior characteristics such as the spray penetrations and spray angles of the emulsified and diesel fuels were compared. The stirring condition of the emulsified fuel was a 9:1 mixture of the diesel fuel and the surfactant span 80. The mixing ratios for the hydrogen peroxide were set at EF2, EF12, EF22, EF32, EF42, EF52, EF62, EF72, EF82, and EF92. The injection pressures were set at 400, 600, 800, and 1000 bar. We found that as the mixing ratio of the hydrogen peroxide was increased from EF2 to EF52, the viscosity of the emulsified fuel increased. However, afterward, the viscosity of the emulsified fuel gradually decreased and approached the viscosity value of the diesel fuel. Therefore, generally oil-in-water emulsions were used for the hydrogen peroxide mixing ratios up to 52 (EF52), and water-in-oil emulsions were used for the hydrogen peroxide mixing ratios above 52. Finally, the spray behavior characteristics (spray penetration and spray angle) of the emulsified fuel were found to be almost independent of the mixing ratio.
