Vessel traffic service operators (VTSOs) need to quickly and accurately analyze the maritime traffic situation in the vessel traffic service (VTS) area and provide information to the vessels. However, if traf ic increases rapidly, the workload of VTSOs increases, and they may not be able to provide adequate information. Therefore, it is essential to develop VTSO support technologies that can reduce their workload and provide consistent information. In this paper, we propose a model for automatically detecting abnormal vessels in the VTS area. The proposed model consists of a positional model and a contextual model and is specifically optimized for the traffic characteristics of the target area. The implemented model was tested by using real-world data collected at a test center (Daesan Port VTS). Our experiments confirmed that the model could automatically detect various abnormal situations, and the results were validated through expert evaluation.

지난 50년 동안 우리나라 근해의 해양사고통계에 따르면 해양사고의 36%가 선박충돌사고로 나타나고 있고 이로 인해 막대한 재산피해, 인명손실 및 환경피해가 발생되고 있다. 한국형이네비게이션사업은 우리나라 근해에서 발생하는 이러한 해양사고를 획기적으로 줄이기 위한 것으로 현재 연구가 진행중이다. 본 연구는 한국형이네비게이션의 최적안전항로서비스에 필요한 충돌위험도평가모델을 개발하는 것이 목적이다. 개발된 충돌위험도평가모델은 과거의 AIS 데이터를 기반으로 주어진 항로의 충돌위험도를 계산한다. 모델의 계산 및 결과를 도시하기 위해 MATLAB 및 MATLAB 기반의 M-Map 패키지가 사용되었다. 개발된 모델의 검증을 위해 정상작동 여부를 확인하기 위한 시험해역 적용과 현장 적용성을 검토하기 위한 실해역 적용이 각각 수행되었으며 그 유용성을 확인할 수 있었다.

A flow and low temperature of deep seawater the biofouling properties in a seawater environment of different materials, such as a steel pipe, polyethylene pipe, and nylon net, used for ocean industries. Experiments in a real sea environment were performed to grasp the quantitative and qualitative biofouling from diatoms attached to materials by measuring the Chlorophyll-a density. Experimental samples were placed under five types of ocean environmental conditions and analyzed every month for five months. It is shown that the biofouling by diatoms was strongly affected by the seawater temperature for all of the experimental samples. It was found that diatoms mainly adhered to the nylon net, while crustaceans prefer polyethylene, under a high temperature condition. It is believed that the biofouling properties are strongly related to the surface roughness of a material. The biofouling under the low temperature condition of deep seawater was rare and stable for the experimental periods. The inside of a pipe conveying deep seawater can be presumed to remain clear without biofouling on the condition of a flow and low temperature of deep seawater.

In this paper, we present an implementation and it's real-sea test of an underwater acoustic data communication system, which allows the system to reduce complexity and increase robustness in time variant underwater environments. For easy adaptation to complicated and time-varying environments of the ocean, all-digital transmitter and receiver systems were implemented. For frame synchronization the CAZAC sequence was used, and QPSK modulation/ demodulation method with carrier frequency of 25kHz and a bandwidth of 5kHz were applied to generate 10kbps transmission rate including overhead. To improve transmission quality, we used several techniques and algorithms such as adaptive beamforming, adaptive equalizer, and convolution coding/Viterbi decoding. for the verification of the system performance, measurement of BER has been done in a very shallow water with depth of 8m at JangMok, Geoje. During the experiment, image data were successfully transmitted up to about 7.4km.

Many concerns are placed on preservation of coastal environment from the spilled oil contaminant in the coastal area. And the use of computer simulation model to combat with oil spill has come to play mote important role in forecasting the oil spill trajectory so as to protect coastal area and minimize the damage from oil contaminants. The main concerns of this study is how the movements of spilled oil are affected by currents including tidal, oceanic, and wind-driven currents. Especially, in the present paper, the oil spill trajectory can be predicted by a real-time system that allows prediction of circulation and wind field. The harmonic methods are adopted to simulate the tidal currents as well as it can be possible to achieve the wind-field data and oceanic current data from the established database. System performance is illustrated by the simulation of oil spill in the south-eastern coastal area of Korea. Simulation results are compared with the observed one.

After the resonator on the basis of the wave-filter theory was designed to control the waves with a specific frequency range surging into the harbor, the several case with the use of resonator have been reported in some part of sea, including the port of Long Beach, USA, and yacht harbor at Rome, Italy in order to control the long-period wave motion from the vessels. Recently, the utility and applicability of the resonator has been sufficiently verified in respect of the control of tsunami approximated as the solitary wave and/or the super long-period waves. However, the case with the application of tsunami in the real sea have not been reported yet. In this research, the respective case with the use of existing resonator at the port of Mukho and Imwon located in the eastern coast of South Korea were studied by using the numerical analysis through the COMCOT model adapting the reduction rate of 1983 Central East Sea tsunami and 1993 Hokkaido Southwest off tsunami. Consequently, the effectiveness of resonator against tsunami in the real sea was confirmed through the reduction rate of maximum 40~50% at the port of Mukho, and maximum 21% at the port of Imwom, respectively. In addition, it was concluded that it is necessary to study about the various case with application of different shape, arrangement, and size of resonator in order to design the optimal resonator considering the site condition.

This study investigated the dif usion characteristics of Ecklonia cava spores around marine forest reefs. For this purpose, a numerical analysis was conducted using field observations in the target area and an EFDC model. Based on the results of field observations and the EFDC model, Flow-3D was performed on three types of marine forest reefs, mamely triangular pyramid reef, double-dome reef, and ribbed reef, to monitor the movement direction and maximum movement distance for E. cava spores. As a result, the equilaterally triangular pyramid reef and double-domed reef were found to have a maximum settlement of spores of 10 m in the northwestern direction and 6 m in the western direction. The ribbed reef had a maximum settlement of spores at 4m. These results show that consideration of the diffusion characteristics of E. cava spores when the seaweeds are installed can increase the effectiveness of the algae as substrate of adhesion.

해양공학에 관련된 문제를 접근하는 방법은 이론해석, 수치해석, 수리모형실험으로 정리될 수 있다. 최근 컴퓨터의 발달로 수치실험기법이 급격한 발전을 보이고 있으나, 실해역의 복잡한 환경 특성을 모두 고려한 수치모델은 아직 개발되지 못한 상태이므로 수리모형실험은 해양환경 특성을 규명하는데 있어 여전히 중요한 기법의 하나로 남아있다. (중략)

At the design stage, it is very important to know the ship maneuvering characteristics from the view point of ship performance and for the safety of navigation. IMO only gives some criteria for ships in full load even keel condition. However, the ship generally is operated not only in full load condition but also in half load condition or ballast condition. Therefore we must estimate the ship maneuvering in different loading condition to ensure that the ship will satisfy with IMO rules and navigate safely in every condition. In this paper, we have investigated the maneuvering characteristics of a ship by simulation and experiments with real ship. By comparing with the results of simulation, the real ship tests conform with simulation test and previous researches. Therefore, the method base on real data is well done to estimate the ship maneuvering in different loading conditions. The change of ship's manoeuverability accoriding to ship's operation conditions was estimated.
