Because a change in the natural frequencies of a structure indicates structural health problems, monitoring the natural frequencies crucial. Long-term measurement for the Uldolmok tidal current power plant structure has shown that its natural frequencies fluctuate with a constant cycle twice a day. In this study, lab-scale tests to investigate the causes of these natural frequency fluctuations were carried out in a circulating water channel. Three independent variables in the tests that could affect the fluctuation of the natural frequencies were the water level, current velocity, and boundary condition between the specimen and the bottom of the circulating water channel. The experimental results were verified with numerical ones using ABAQUS. It was found that the fluctuation of the natural frequencies was governed by a decrease in stiffness due to the boundary condition much more than the effect of added mass. In addition, it was found that the natural frequency would decrease with an increase in the tidal current velocity because of its nonlinearity when the boundary condition was severely deteriorated due to damage.

A multi-purpose environmental monitoring system has been developed as a commercially available standard using the technique of hetero-core spliced fiber optic sensors, for the purposes of monitoring large-scale structures and preserving natural environments. The monitoring system has been tested and evaluated in a possible outdoor condition, in view of the full-scale operation at actual sites to be monitored. Additionally, the developed system in this work conveniently provides us with various options of sensor modules intended for monitoring such physical quantities as displacement, distortion, pressure, binary states, and liquid adhesion. Two channels of optical fiber line were monitored in each channel, three displacement sensor modules were connected in series, in order to examine the performance to a pseudo-cracking experiment in the outdoor situation and to clarify temperature influences an the system, in terms of the coupling of optical connectors and the OTDR stability. The results from the pseudo-cracking experiment agreed with the actual cracks, by means of calculation, based an the detected displacement values and their geometrical arrangement of the used sensor modules. The temperature change, ranging from 10 to $20^{\circ}C$ resulting from the 10-days free running operation, was found to influence the system stability of ${\pm}10{\mu}m$, primarily due to the coupling instability of the used optical connectors. It was found that fusion splicing, rather than the use of connectors, reduced the fluctuation dawn to ${\pm}2{\mu}m$. The specification and performance of various option modules have been demonstrated to show the capability of inspecting various physical quantities by use of the single system, which would be suitable for multi-purpose environmental monitoring.

This study aims to examine the characteristics of the water quality variation in relation to the change of water exchange rate with respect to the development phases of the Pusan port. To clarify the characteristics, water exchange caused by the variations of coastline shape and water surface area was examined by the numerical experiments using the Lagrangian particle tracking model based on 2-D shallow water equation. As the results of numerical experiments, it was proved that the water exchange in the Pusan port was decreased mainly due to the port development and the breakwaters construction. During the port development phases from 1875 to 1998, 35% of the sea-space in the port had decreased to make hinterland spaces. This resulted in the loss of wet-land and coastline change as well as decrease of the water exchange rate at the sea side. The city population in that period had rapidly increased from several thousands to 4 millions, resulting in the large discharge of sewages into the port area. Under the these environmental conditions, it can be clearly said that the water quality in the Pusan port is sensitively affected by the discharge of urban sewages decrease of the water exchange rate in relation to port and urban developments. In the study, the temporal changes of water quality were discussed with respect to the port development phases. It was clear that the water quality wad controlled by the exchange rate change under the port development as well as the input impact into the port from the urbanized city area. To make clean sea of the Pusan port, it is suggested that the sewage control, the water exchange and coastline control should be systematically checked under the concept of eco-friendly development and environmental management.

The accident risks in the marine environment are increasing because of the tendency to build faster and larger ships. To secure ship safety, risk-based ship design (RBSD) was recently suggested based on a formal safety assessment (FSA). In the process of RBSD, a ship designer decides which risk reduction option is most cost-effective in the design stage using a cost-benefit analysis (CBA). There are three dimensions of risk in this CBA: fatality, environment, and asset. In this paper, we present an approach to estimate the environmental costs based on the size of an oil tanker involved in an accident using a neural network. An appropriate neural network model is suggested for the estimation,and the neural network is trained using IOPCF data. Finally,the learned neural network is compared with the cost regression equation by IMO MEPC 62/WP.13 (2011).

For the past scores of years, our country has driven its land development toward economic growth as its top priority. ut, as a result that almost all developments been promoted excepting environmental values, in fact, they've incurred some bad environmental effects desirable. Especially, as representative examples, we can raise some issues such as damages of the foreshore or coast wet lands by seas reclamation, and coast corrosion by building up of rivers or coast constructions. Recently, many people started to have great interests in businesses of environment preservation or recycling to minimize effects of these environmental matters. However, before beginning public businesses of non-commercial goods relevant to the seas environments, there seemed to be some limitations that can not accomplish under consideration of environmental sides at the same time while performing economic validities and efficiencies with environmental economic analysis, which is already effective in countries advanced in environment, it's a very meaningful course in that citizens' opinions are being influenced in seas environmental policies for their efficient execution. In this research, after modeling coast corrosion preventives with Jeong-am coast of Gangwon Province, and using Contingent Valuation Method being widely used of value measuring methods on Non-commercial goods, we've appreciated environmental economy's validity of construction works and the scale of environmental economic value of beach restoration work.

동해 남서대륙붕은 부산에서 포항까지 내대륙붕에 니질퇴적물이 띠형태로 형성되어있다. 이 지역은 분급도가 대체적으로 불량한 니질퇴적물로 구성되어있다. 연구지역의 물리적, 지질적 그리고 지형학적인 차이는 아마도 살아있는 유공충의 분포에 영향을 미치리라 생각된다. 동해 남서니질퇴적물의 환경기준선을 설정하기 위하여 총 17개의 정점에서 45종의 살아있는 저서성유공충을 이용하여 검증을 해보았다. 살아있는 저서성유공충의 집괴분석은 5개의 서식지로 구분되었다. 이러한 서식지는 각 서식지의 모든 정점에서 나타나는 종에 의하여 각각이 뚜렷하게 구별되고 있다. 각 서식지를 구성하는 종들은 해류, 수심, 영양염 그리고 해저퇴적물의 특정이 서로 연관되어 형성된 것으로 보인다.

The purpose of this study was to develop a buckling analysis technique for a windpower system structure under environmental loadings (hydrostatic pressure) using FEM. We analyzed an isotropic material and composite material and made a comparison using buckling pressure formulas. First, finite element analyses for an isotropic material (SC410) were performed to obtain the variation of buckling pressure for the number of elements and boundary conditions in a pressure-shell model, and the numerical results were compared with those of existing empirical formulas. Then, additional finite element analyses based on the results of the isotropic material (SC410) were performed to determine the optimum lamination angle and pattern for a composite material (URN300). The results of the FE analyses for the composite material were also compared with those of existing empirical formulas. The ply orientations (lamination angles) used in the FE analyses were $0^{\circ}$, $15^{\circ}$, $30^{\circ}$, $45^{\circ}$, $60^{\circ}$, $75^{\circ}$, and. The lamination patterns in the FE analyses were and. The lamination pattern was assumed to be the equivalent model of. The results of the FE analyses for the isotropic material (SC410) indicated that the optimal values for the number of elements and the boundary conditions were 6000 and both simply supported, respectively. The results of the FE analyses for the composite material (URN300) showed that the optimal ply orientation was $60^{\circ}{\sim}75^{\circ}$.

최근 들어 심해역에 대한 개발과 합섬섬유 재질 케이블의 발달로 인하여 저장력 케이블의 사용이 증가되었다. 저장력 케이블은 장력에 의한 복원력이 작기 때문에 대변위가 발생하게 되며, 따라서 기하학적 비선형이 강하게 나타나게 된다. 또한 해양환경에서는 유체 비선형도 작용하게 된다. 본 연구에서는 수치해석적 방법을 통하여 불균일하게 구성된 예인되는 저장력 케이블의 3차원 동적거동 해석을 수행한다. 수치해석에서는 유체 및 기하학적 비선형과 굽힘강성이 고려되며, 유한차분법(음해법)을 적용하여 풀이된다. 비선형 해를 구하기 위해서 뉴톤-랍슨 방법을 사용한다. 대형 행렬을 풀이하기 위하여 불록삼중대각행렬 풀이법이 적용되는데, 이 방법은 일반적인 행렬 풀이법인 가우스-조르단 방법에 비하여 계산시간을 상당히 줄일 수 있었다. 선배열 음탐 케이블에 대한 다양한 예제해석을 수행하였으며, 해석결과는 미국 우즈홀 해양연구소에서 개발된 프로그램 결과와 잘 일치하였다.

본 논문에서는 염소이온의 확산과 이송해석이 가능한 유한요소해석 프로그램을 개발하였으며, 해양 간만대의 건습 반복 조건을 고려하여 염소이온 침투해석을 수행하였다. 염소이온 침투에 영향을 미치는 열과 수분의 전달을 동시에 고려하였으며, 특히 염소이온 이송을 생성항 또는 소멸항으로 처리하여 온도, 상대습도, 염소이온농도를 순차적으로 풀 수 있도록 하였다. 건습 반복 주기를 변수로 한 유한요소해석 결과와 ACI Life-365방법에 의한 침투 프로파일의 비교를 통하여, Life-365 방법은 해중에서의 염소이온 침투에 대해서는 정확한 결과를 주지만 간만대의 해석결과는 건습 주기의 영향을 고려하지 못하는 것을 확인하였다. 실제 해양 콘크리트는 다양한 건습 주기의 간만대 환경에 노출되어 있으므로, 정밀한 염소 이온 침투해석을 위해서는 확산-이송 해석을 수행해야 할 것으로 생각된다.

A series of model tests was carried out to investigate the vortex-induced vibration (VIV) characteristics of a free hanging PVC pipe under forced oscillation conditions. The prescribed displacement with a period and amplitude was forced at the top of the riser. The motion of the riser along its length was measured with underwater cameras in three dimensions. The top-excited responses in the inline direction and vortex-induced vibration in the cross-flow direction were examined in the time and frequency domains. Multi-peak frequencies in the VIV were demonstrated to be strongly dependent upon the Keulegan-Carpenter number, corresponding with the results of Blevin. It was found that the Reynolds numbers (excitation period) was a critical parameter for the dominant VIV characteristics, even under the condition of using the same Keulegan-Carpenter number, under the top-excited condition. In the resonance at the nth natural frequency by the forced-motion induced VIV frequency, the riser responded with a large amplitude and forced frequency, dominantly in the VIV CF direction.
