As ships become bigger, faster, and diverse, transportation has increased the usage of marine vehicles. However, ship accidents are increasing. Ship accidents cause loss of life and property as well as environmental disasters. The occurrence of ship accidents causes enormous economic and environmental impacts. Notably, in the case of passenger ships, methods for preventing ship accidents are being discussed to avoid losing numerous human lives. The purpose of this study is to provide essential data for evacuation before reaching the dangerous time by predicting the time to reach the risk of capsizing based on the heeling angle of the passenger ship. Based on sinking accidents between 2012 and 2016, we set up specific scenarios and simulated the PRR1 data using commercial software MOSES V20. In the case of the linear equation, the simulation results showed a low error rate because the simulation data showed the linear graph. In the case of the quadratic equation, the error rate was low at the beginning but showed a high error rate at the subsequent angle.

In 2021, the Joint Group of Experts on the Scientific Aspects of Marine Environmental Protection (GESAMP), a U.N. advisory research institute, cited container loss as one of six sources of marine litters in shipping. The sinking of the X-P ress Pearl in May 2021 caused a catastrophic environmental pollution accident in which the loaded containers were moved to the shore, and the plastic pellets were loaded inside covered the coast of Sri Lanka. With this history, the International Maritime Organization (IMO) will discuss prevention and follow-up measures for container loss during ship voyages, as an agenda at the 8th Sub Committee on Carriage of Cargoes and Containers meeting in September 2022. To establish Korea's response direction at the IMO meeting, this study identified major causes of container loss accidents, and considered the response through analysis based on the accident investigation report and related professional data. As a result, it was found that the major cause of container loss during voyages was the enlargement of container ships, bad weather, and poor loading of containers. In particular, the need to prepare countermeasures for the deterioration of the operational safety of large container ships due to bad weather was identified. Additionally, integrated monitoring of the implementation of international conventions is required, for the safe sea transportation of container cargo. In particular, in terms of preservation of the marine environment, it is necessary to supplement the system for the recovery of lost containers. Finally, it was found that it is necessary to establish systems that can complement each other in the shipbuilding and shipping industries, in terms of shipbuilding as well as ship operation, to fundamentally prevent container loss accidents at sea. It is judged that it is difficult to resolve the various factors of container loss at sea during voyages, by responding from an individual perspective.

It is naturally to be expected that the stress of seafarers has some specific characters compared to other workers who are labouring on land. Because the physical rigors of working and living at sea has been endured as a part of job. The excessive stress caused by shipboard life, their jobs, can weaken the health status and court the work related accidents. Also it will be the immediate causes of marine accidents such as collision, sinking etc. In this paper, a questionnaire survey was undertaken to find out the approximate quantity and source of seafarer's occupational stress. And the heart rate of deck officers on duty was measured to develop a profile of correlation between the stress and the work.

Emergency batteries on board are used for stairs, pathway lights, and emergency communications during alternator black-out. In addition, there are engine start-up batteries in lifeboats. Typically, these batteries are installed under the Classification Rules. However, Since batteries inside life boats are installed in a confined narrow space, it is difficult to perform regular maintenances. Also, even though there are air vents in the life boat, the temperature inside the life boat often reaches above $65^{\circ}C$, which is much higher than the regulation temperature, $45^{\circ}C$. In this paper, we will summarize the accident of battery explosion occurred in MMU training ship, and possible causes. We will propose preventive measures of battery explosions as well as the revision of the regulation.

해상용(offshore) 부이(bouy)는 선박의 항로를 지시하거나 암초, 침몰선 등 항해상의 위험물을 알리기 위해 사용 되며, 야간을 위해 등화장치를 설치한 것을 등부표라 한다. 등부표는 야간 점등을 위해 자체 전력 생산시스템을 갖추고 있으나, 기존의 태양광을 이용한 전력 시스템은 해상 환경에 따른 제약이 많아 안정적인 운영이 어려우므로 풍력 발전기(wind turbine)를 이용한 하이브리드 전력 생산시스템으로의 전환이 필요한 실정이다. 선행 연구는 수직축(vertical axis) 양력(lift) 및 항력(drag) 조합형 해상용 풍력발전기 개발에 대하여 수행하였으나, 본 논문에서는 풍력발전기의 효율 증대를 위해 날개 길이 및 후면부 절개 비율에 따른 수직축 풍력발전기 특성에 대하여 연구하였다. 풍력발전기의 설치조건은 선행연구와 동일하게 등명구 교체 작업을 원활하게 하기 위하여 설치 공간을 $1m{\times}1m$로 제한하였으며, 등부표의 구조를 고려하여 최상단에 지지 프레임을 별도로 구성 하였다. 풍력발전기의 블레이드는 0.6mm의 알루미늄 박판을 절곡하여 NACA 4418의 외형을 가지도록 제작하였고, 블레이드 설계 시 에어포일의 후면부를 절개하여 양력과 항력을 효과적으로 이용하며 저속과 고속에서 높은 효율을 가지도록 설계하였다. 또한 블레이드 날개 길이와 후면부 절개 비율에 따른 풍력발전기 특성을 실험을 통해 비교하여 기준 해상 풍속에서 블레이드 설계 최적화를 수행하였으며 비교 모델 대비 약32% 발전량이 증가한 설계변수 조합을 구하였다.

최근 국제해사기구(International Maritime Organization, IMO)는 "극지를 운항하는 선박에 대한 안전기준(Polar Code)"를 제정하여 결정하기로 하였으며, 2012년까지 완료하여 법제화하기로 하였다. 이는 최근의 극해 지역의 연속적인 사고의 심각성에 대한 대비책의 일환이다. 2004년도에 알라스카 앞바다에 침몰한 Selendang Ayu 는 6600만 톤의 콩, 170만 리터의 연료유와 55,564 리터의 MDO 및 다른 오염물질을 바다에 유출하였다. 이는 주변의 동물들에게 심각한 영향을 끼쳤고, 아직까지도 유출되어진 오염물질들을 완전히 처리하지 못한 상태이다(Arctic marine shipping assessment, Arctic council 2009.). 즉, 기름이 유출을 하면 방재시설이 다른 육상에서 오기 전까지는 상당히 오랜 시간 동안, 사고 지역 주변을 오염시키게 되며, 유빙이나 극한의 온도는 방재 작업을 더욱 힘들게 한다. 본 연구에서는 극해와 같은 해역에서 기름이 유출 하였을 때에 대응하는 방법, 즉 현존하는 기계적인 복구 방식, 점화식 처리 방식 과 유처리제 방식을 소개하고, 그에 대한 국제규정 및 기술 발전 동향에 대해서도 설명한다.

The big problem of accidents at sea is negligent watch, it causes collision, fender bender, stranding, rollover, and sinking of fishing vessel. Most accidents happens without an eyewitness, it is difficult to identify the cause of the accident. VDR(: Voyage Data Recorder) is needed to identify a cause of the accident, the VDR is not usually used for fishing vessel because of high cost. Thus, this paper designs and develops a VDR system for fishing vessel. If the system is used, cause of a sea accident can be quickly identified. Also, a VDR system can be used for appropriate measures to fix a cause of the accident. Finally, it also can be helpful to prevent maritime accidents.

과거와 달리 유독가스가 생성되는 화재, 폭발, 화학사고 및 급격한 기압차를 경험하게 되는 선박 침몰 구조 등 다양한 재난 혹은 사고 상황에서 고압산소치료가 욕구되며, 이를 수행할 수 있는 고압산소치료챔버는 재난에 대응하는 핵심 자원으로 그 수량과 배치가 적절해야 한다. 따라서 다양한 종류의 재난에서 발생하는 유독가스 피해자에게 고압산소치료는 필수적이나 본 연구에 의하면 국내에는 고압산소치료챔버의 숫자와 동시에 고압산소치료로 수용할 수 있는 환자수에도 한계가 있고 그 분포의 불균형도 존재하고 있어 재난 시 인명 피해 감소의 기반 장비, 시설로서 고압산소챔버의 균형있는 확산, 적용이 시급한 실정이며, 이는 가칭 재난고압산소지수로 객관화할 수 있다. 국내에서는 인구밀집지역인 수도권이 고압산소치료가 필요한 재난에 대한 대응 기반이 부족하다가 향상되고 있으며 부산, 경남 권역에 고압산소치료 자원이 편중된 현상을 보이고 있다. 고압산소치료 필요한 대량의 중환자 발생 시는 국내 전체의 고압산소치료기 활용 여부에 대한 실시간 모니터링 시스템이 필요하고 필요 시 원거리 피해자 전원 시스템을 갖추어야 하므로 이는 향후 구축해야 할 사항으로 이를 위한 전국적 고압산소치료기 모니터링 시스템이 필요하다.

Seafarers are often placed in circumstances that require emergency evacuations due to various causes, including ship collisions, sinking, stranding, and fires. Achieving shorter evacuation time is an important factor in increasing the survival rate during these circumstances, but the narrow and complicated structure of ships is an obstacle when it comes to executing a quick evacuation. Also, unpredictable restrictions may be imposed by bad sea or weather. In this study, various experiments were conducted with sailors currently on board ships in order to examine factors that increase evacuation time. The data was then and analyzed. Evacuation time was measured by dividing crews into groups: sailors that were given an explanation of the ship's structure and those that were not. Furthermore, the visibility range was divided into 0 m, 3 m, and 5 m. The results indicated that, having an explanation of the ship structure did not have much of an effect on evacuation time but visibility conditions led to an increase in evacuation time with a maximum of 2.5 to 2.6 times longer when the visible distance was 5 m, 0 m and 3 m. Therefore, ensuring a visible distance of over 5 m was determined to be the most important factor for reducing evacuation time. In the future, effort should be made to ensure a greater visible distance to improve the survival rate of seafarers and passengers on board ships that encounter incidents.
