Kim et al.(I999) presented a non-linear finite element formulation of spatial ocean cables using multiple noded cable elements. The initial equilibrium state of ocean cables subjected to self-weights, support motions, and current forces was determined using the load incremental method and free vibration analysis were performed considering added mass, In this paper, the methods to generate regular and irregular waves and calculate wave forces due to these waves are discussed and challenging example problems are presented in order to investigate dynamic non-linear behaviors of ocean cables subjected to wave loadings.

Linear and nonlinear motion responses of a Tension Leg Platform(TLP) was investigated by model tests. The model tests were carried out at KRISO's Ocean Engineering Basin which has a deep pit of which diameter and depth are 5 meters and 12.5 meters, respectively. Optical sensors were used for measuring drift motions, and a set of accelerometers were employed for analyzing wave frequency motions. ISSC TLP was chosen as the model for the present study. Scale ratio was 1/65 and elastic modelling of tether system were conducted. Very good agreement was obtained between experimental results and theoretical calculations not only in linear motion responses but tension responses, nonlinear wave drift force and double frequency excitations.

For the reliability analysis of offshore guyed towers for large storm events, failure of an anchor pile of the guyline system is investigated. Two failure modes of the anchor pile due to the extreme and the cyclic wave loadings are considered. The probability of failure due to the extreme anchor load is evaluated based on the first excursion probability analysis. Degradation of the pile capacity due to cyclic loadings is evaluated by using empirical fatigue curves for a driven pile in clay. The numerical results indicate that the failure probability due to the cyclic loadings can be as large as the risk due to extreme loading, particularly for the cases with the low design safety level of the pile strength and the large uncertainty of the pile resistance.

In this paper, a hybrid element method(HEM) for the evaluation of the hydrodynamic responses of arbitrary-shaped offshore structures is studied. The hydrodynamic pressure forces are assumed to be inertially dominated, and viscous effects are neglected. The mathematical formulation procedure of the hybrid element method with the analytical eigenseries solution is established systematically. The computer program based on the HEM has been developed, and applied to solving the wave diffraction and radiation problems for arbitrary shaped structures. From comparisons of the results obtained by using the other avaliable solution methods, the method for the evaluation of the hydrodynamic forces using the HEM and the computer program developed here have been proved to be valid.

Traditional methods of research on ship maneuvering performance were estimated in calm water. Ship maneuverability in waves is of vital importance for navigation safety of a ship (ITTC, 2008). The accurate estimation of force and moment acting on the ship and rudder behind propeller are necessary because the rudder, propeller and hull interaction is of key importance. In addition, course-keeping ability and maneuvering performance of a ship can be significantly affected by the presence of wave. In this study, the model test is performed in the regular wave in the square wave tank in Changwon National University and the hydrodynamic force acting on the ship hull and rudder behind the propeller in various wave directions is investigated. The effect of wavelength and wave direction on hydrodynamic force acting on ship and rudder behind propeller in regular waves is discussed.

This paper considers a numerical analysis of ship maneuvering performance in the high amplitude incident waves by adopting linear and nonlinear ship motion analysis. A time-domain ship motion program is developed to solve the wave-body interaction problem with the ship slip speed and rotation, and it is coupled with a modular type 4-DOF maneuvering problem. Nonlinear Froude-Krylov and restoring forces are included to consider weakly nonlinear ship motion. The developed method is applied to observe the nonlinear ship motion and planar trajectories in maneuvering test in the presence of incident waves. The comparisons are made for S-175 containership with existing experimental data. The nonlinear computation results show a fair agreement of overall tendency in maneuvering performance. In addition, maneuvering performances with respect to wave slope is predicted and reasonable results are observed.

수리구조물에 관한 기존 연구들은 대부분 기능성과 안정성 측면에서 본체에 작용하는 유체력에 대한 안정성에 주안점을 두고 있다. 수리구조물 상·하류의 수위차에 기인한 기초지반내의 흐름 및 간극수압 변화는 하천 구조물의 안정성을 연구하는데 매우 중요하다. 해양에서는 파랑하중에 의한 과잉간극수압이 액상화를 발생시켜 해안구조물의 안정에 큰 영향을 미치는 것으로 보고되며, 이에 관련 연구들이 활발하게 진행되고 있다. 반면, 하천구조물 주변 지반의 흐름 및 간극수압 뿐 아니라, 액상화에 관한 연구는 아직 미진한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 수리구조물 주변의 유동 및 와동 현상 뿐 아니라, 수위차에 따른 지반 내부 유동장과 간극수압에 관한 특성을 분석하기 위해 유체-구조물-지반 비선형 상호작용을 고려할 수 있는 수치수조를 새롭게 제안하였다. 그리고 제안하는 수치수조의 타당성 및 유효성을 검증하기 위해 기존 실험값과 비교·검토를 수행하였고, 그 결과는 거의 유사한 경향을 나타내었다. 또한 이 수치수조에 다양한 입사조건(상·하류 수위차)에 적용하여 유체-구조물-지반의 비선형동적상호간섭 해석을 수행하였다. 최종적으로 수치수조에서 측정한 구조물 주변의 유동, 와동, 수위로부터 수리특성을 논의하였다. 게다가 지반내의 흐름과 간극수압을 측정하여 상·하류 수위차가 수리구조물의 안정성에 미치는 영향을 분석할 수 있었다.

Due to the global warming and air pollution, interest in renewable energies has increased in recent years. In particular, the crisis of the depletion of fossil energy resources in the near future has accelerated the renewable energy technologies. Among the renewable energy resources, oceans covering almost three-fourths of earth's surface have an enormous amount of energy. For this reason, various approaches have been made to harness the tremendous energy potential. In order to achieve two purposes: to improve harbor water quality and to use wave energy, this study proposed a sea water exchange structure applying an Oscillating Water Column (OWC) wave generation system that utilizes the air flow velocity induced by the vertical motion of water column in the air chamber as a driving force of turbine. In particular, the airflow velocity in the air chamber was estimated from the time variations of water surface profile computed by using 3D-NIT model based on the 3-dimensional irregular numerical wave tank. The relationship of the frequency spectrums between the computed airflow velocities and the incident waves was analyzed. This study also discussed the characteristics of frequency spectrums in the air chamber according to the presence of the structure, wave deformations by the structure, and the power of the water and air flows were also investigated. It is found that the phase difference exists in the time series data of water level fluctuations and air flow in the air chamber and the air flow power is superior to the fluid flow power.

As ships become faster, larger and are required to meet higher standards, the importance of flow noise is highlighted. However, unlike in the aeroacoustics field for airplanes and trains (where flow noise is considered in design), acoustics are not considered in the marine field. In this study, analysis procedures for hull-induced flow noise are established to investigate the flow noise characteristics of a wave-piercing hull form that can negate the effect of wave-breaking. The principal mechanisms behind hull-induced flow noise are fluid-structure interactions between complex flows underneath the turbulent boundary layer and the hull. Noise induced by the turbulent boundary layer was calculated using wall pressure fluctuation and energy flow analysis methods. The results obtained show that noise characteristics can be distinguished by frequency range and hull region. Also, the low-frequency range is affected by hull forms such that it is correlated with ship speed.

This research was carried out to estimate annual erosion and retreat rates by using datum-point and to identify the characteristics and causes of seasonal variations of sea-cliff slope in Pado-ri, Taean-gun. In the result, the erosion and retreat rates of sea-cliff were increased from spring to summer. The rates were increased rapidly between August and October, caused by the effects of extreme weather events such as severe rainstorms and typhoons, etc. Since then, the erosion and retreat rates of sea-cliff were decreased gradually, but the rates were increased again in winter due to the storm surge and mechanical weathering resulting from the repeated freezing and thawing actions of bed rocks. The factors that affect erosion and retreat rates of sea-cliff include the number of days with antecedent participation and daily maximum wave height. In particular, it turned out that the erosion is accelerated by strong wave energy during storm surges and typhoons. The annual erosion and retreat rates of study area for the past two years(from May 2010 to May 2012) were approximately 44~60cm/yr in condition of differences in geomorphological and geological characteristics at each point. These erosion and retreat rates were found to be higher than results of previous researches. This is caused by coastal erosion forces strengthened by extreme weather events. The erosion and retreat process of sea-cliff in the study area is composed by denudation of onshore areas in addition to marine erosion(wave energy).
