The capsizing speed of an unstable vessel with a lost restoring moment can be understood as a unique response to an accident situation, and is naturally affected by such parameters as moment of inertia, metacentric height, and transverse damping coefficient of the hull in the case of free roll motion. Additionally, it is supposed that the analysis of capsize accidents can be further simplified when a vessel's leaning velocity is shown to be quite low. Therefore, capsize accidents with low leaning speeds are desirably categorized in view of rescuing strategies, as opposed to fast capsize accidents, since the attitude of the declining hull can be properly estimated, which allows rescuers to have more time for helping accident cases. This study focuses on deriving some analytical equations based on the roll decay ratio parameter, which describes how a hull under a low-speed capsize is related to the situational hull characteristics. The suggested equations are applied to a particular ship to disclose the analytical responses from the model ship. It was confirmed that the results show the general characteristics of slow capsizing ships.

The frequency of marine accidents of vessels in Korea is steadily increasing and it is concentrated on small vessels with less than 10 tons of gross tonnage. Therefore, preventing capsizing accidents in small vessels is important to reduce the cost in terms of human and property damage due to such accidents. However, research on the seakeeping performance of small vessels has been insufficient, and there are no domestic and international regulations on seakeeping performance. Therefore, in this study, capsizing accidents caused by poor loading conditions were investigated by examining the adjudications of the small vessels in which the capsizing accidents occurred. Hydrostatic calculations and seakeeping performance analysis were performed for a representative vessel. A vessel generally performs a six-degree-of-freedom motion during operation. In this study, the response amplitude operator and response spectrum of a representative vessel were calculated to determine the roll motion. Moreover, a short-term statistical analysis of the vessel according to the loading conditions was performed for the wave stationary status for 3 h. From the results, it was estimated that, when the loading condition of a small vessel is poor, its roll motion increases, greatly reducing its stability.

In March 2016, a 6.67-ton fishing boat capsized owing to the loss of stability during crane operations. Capsizing occurs when a boat or ship is flipped over (or turned upside down) for reason other than accidents caused by collisions, contact, stranding, fire or explosion. Over the past nine years (2010-2018), capsize accidents have accounted for 2.34 % of all marine accidents and are gradually increasing. The loss of stability from improper shipping is the main cause of most capsizes, especially for small fishing vessels weighing 10 tons. According to the Fishing Vessel Act, small fishing vessels weighing less than a ton are exempted from inspections on stability and load cranes. This study analyzes the issue cited as the reason for the capsizing of the small fishing boat in Goseong, namely, the reduction of restoring moment due to increased weight of the crane. Fishing boats with similar loading conditions were modeled on the basis of re-determination, and their stability before and after the accident was assumed. The fishing boats with heavier cranes were found to be at higher risk of capsizing owing to the reduction of the restoring moment and the angle of deck immersion. Under standard loading conditions, the stability moments of fishing vessels are lesser during fishing, compared to when they depart from or arrive at the port.

A coastwise chemical tanker sailing at full speed has capsized during turning in calm water. In the previous paper, we investigated the reasons of the accident by demonstrating the proper correction for the free surface effect of the liquid cargo and the bow-sinkage effect. In this paper, we also carry out model experiments of a transverse pressure under the seawater and an outward heel moment according to the heel angle and rudder angle, on the basis of radius of turning circle, ship's speed and drift angle of model ship occurring in turning. It is also shown that the flooding of seawater onto the deck occurring in turning generated a significant outward heel moment and increased the vertical distance between the center of gravity of the ship and the center of lateral water drag.

According to the statistics of maritime accidents statistics that have occurred in Korea over the past five years, maritime accidents caused by fishing boats have increased every year from 1,646 in 2016 to 2,100 in 2020. In particular, of the 378 capsizing accidents that have occurred in the past five years, 252 capsizing accidents of fishing boats account for a high proportion of 66.7%, therefore, it is urgent to come up with countermeasures. In this study, to determine the cause of the capsizing accident of fishing boat No. 66 poongsung, data such as stability and seawater inflow routes were collected, and the effects of waterproof, additional wood decks, and windbreakers on stability on were quantitatively analyzed. Additional decks, windbreakers, and waterproof installed in No. 66 poongsung cause initial list, deteriorate stability, and fail to meet fishing boat structural standards. In addition, it was analyzed that the stability was weakened due to the characteristics of the hull shape of No. 66 poongsung. To estimate the stability at the time of the accident, the stability at the time of the working in the fishing ground condition, amount of seawater inflow according to the change in sea conditions, hull oscillation situation, and change in stability due to the hull factor were calculated. As a result, the minimum GoM was satisfied at the time of working in the fishing ground, but it could not be restored at the maximum wave height of 4 m, and the minimum GoM was not satisfied at the maximum wave height of 4 m owing to the influence of seawater inflow and oscillation due to the hull list. However, the minimum GoM was satisfied if additional decks and windbreakers installation was excluded among the factors affecting the stability of No. 66 poongsung.

우리나라의 경우 해양사고에서 어선이 차지하는 비율은 매우 높아 최근 5개년 동안 전체 해양사고중 어선사고 척수 및 비율은 4,361척 중 2,967척으로 68%를 점유하고 있으며 또 어선에 있어서 총톤수 20톤 이하의 소형어선에 의한 사고가 85%를 차지하고 있다.어선의 사고유형을 분석해 보면 기관손상이 30%정도 충돌･전복･침몰 사고가 30% 정도, 기타사고가 40%로 분석되고 있다. 따라서 해양사고비율이 가장 높은 어선사고로 부터 인명손실을 예방하기 위한 실용적이고 효과적인 대책이 시급한 실정이다.본 연구는 어선사고 중 다른사고에 비해 막대한 인명피해나 재산상의 손실을 초래하는 어선사고 유형인 전복/침몰･화재와 최근에 많이 발생하고 있는 낚시어선사고와 어업재해사고를 중점대상으로 사례조사를 통하여 자율적인 어선 인명사고 예방체제 수립 및 어업종사자의 안전의식 고취를 제고하기 위함이다.
