Korea has achieved a remarkable growth by pursuing externally-oriented growth policy since 1960s. That is, we imported raw materials and spare parts, manufactured them into products and exported them, which led to successful economic development. Therefore, our marine business has played an important roles as one of key industries. The development of marine business has contributed to efficient distribution and cost reduction in addition to production of added value and creation of employment creation, which improved external competitive power. In spite of economic importance of marine business, national perception on it is in general low and its developmental conditions are considerably poor. Therefore, this study aims to speculate the effect of Port-related business on regional economy using regional input-output tables.

In order to be a hub-port in Northeast Asia, current China government has intensively invested in port development. Further, this development Project is significantly big scale, compared with those projects which Korea and Japan have. Thus, China is beginning to threaten Korean ports, especially Busan port which try to be a hub port in Northeast Asia. For this reason, recently many studies to evaluate competitiveness between Korean ports, especially Busan and Gwangyang, and Chinese ports have been conducted. In the mean time, implications of those pervious research has mainly been based on evaluation of port competitiveness using evaluation methodologies, such as AHP(Analytical Hierarchy Process) and HFP(Hierarchical Fuzzy Process). However, as previous evaluation algorithms are methodologies that only calculate ranking of ports by competitiveness level, from the results of analysis, critical weak points affected current port competitiveness could not clearly fine out. That is, because there has not been any algorithm that can extract critical points from the evaluation results. The aim of this paper is to present critical points that affect port competitiveness using an algorithm based on IRFE(Inverse Relation of Fuzzy Evaluation), and scenario analysis, from previous results of evaluation of port competitiveness. And The research scope is to covey the subjective ports of Korea and China's 7 major ports (Busan, Gwangyang, Sanghai, Qingdao, Tienjin, Dalian and Kaoshuing). From analysis, it was found that critical weak point of Busan port is the level of hinterland including availability of free trade zone.

Container port development in Korea seems to be based on the policy of balanced regional development rather than demand and supply theory. The problem of overcapacity and low utilization faced by several ports such as Kwangyang, Ulsan New Port and Phohang Youngil New Port can back up this. Furthermore as some ports are located closely sharing the same domestic hinterland the revitalization of the ports is not easy resulting in wasting resources with both regional and national aspect. This study, therefore, aims at providing an empirical results for the container port classification of the 5 ports such as Busan, Kwangyang, Incheon, Pyeongtaek and Ulsan. For this several time series data for the ports such as transshipment containers, import and export containers, origin and destination countries, and local origin and destination are analysed. Based on the results of the analysis the 5 container ports are classified together with their practical roles, and the functional overlap of the port including Phohang was analysed.

This study aims to compare Jeju Island, Shanghai, and Yokohama cruise ports and to investigate the relative strengths and weaknesses of Jeju Island. This study conducted comparative evaluation of 8 factors [airport, berth, expenses, distance, access to town, shopping facilities, source market (background market), and tourism] through a cruise network analysis. Comparative evaluation results find that Jeju Island, which secured 2 berths (berthing capacity) by completion of the civil-military complex port, has ascendancy over Shanghai cruise port and will have ascendancy over Yokohama cruise port once construction of the new airport is completed. Therefore, it will qualify as the best cruise port in Northeast Asia in the future. Results obtained from the cruise network analysis provide insights for administrative policy. Study limitations include only eight factors are used for evaluating the cruise-ship harbor area and surrounding hinterlands, and thus cannot sufficiently evaluate the complex conditions of the sites. In the future, it is necessary to reexamine the evaluation factors of the cruise ship harbor in detail. Furthermore, future research will need to consider the economic effects of the cruise ship industry, and its relevance to related industries as a possible fusion or hybrid industry.

항만구조물의 방파제 또는 방파호안의 마루높이는 배후지역의 활용도에 따라 내습파의 월파로 인한 전달파 또는 월파량에 의해 결정되기 때문에 월파량산정은 항만구조물을 설계함에 있어서 주요한 설계인자이다. 그동안 국내에서는 항만구조물 설계시 주로 외국의 기준이나 기법을 활용하고 있는 실정이다. 국내 항만설계기준에서는 Goda도표를 이용하여 직립제 및 방파호안에 대한 월파량 산정방법을 제시하고 있으나, 도표축이 log로 되어 있어 내삽 또는 외삽시 사용자에 따라 월파량 차이가 발생할 수 있다. 국내의 해역특성 및 최근 설계동향을 반영한 월파량 산정식의 개발이 필요하고, 동일조건에 대한 동일한 월파량 산정결과가 도출될 수 있어야 한다. 최근의 대표 연구성과인 EurOtop(2007)과 같이 지수함수의 형태로 월파량 산정식을 제시하고자 한다. 경사식구조물의 평균월파량 산정식 도출을 위해 적용한 구조물 위치에서의 수심(d_t)은 0.40m, 0.55m, 0.70m 이다. 적용수심을 서로 다르게 한 것은 기존의 대부분의 연구에서 적용하지 않았던 구조물 위치에서의 쇄파조건을 고려하기 위한 것이다. 실험파는 Bretschneider-Mitsuyasu 주파수 스펙트럼을 사용한 불규칙파를 적용하였다. 본 연구에서는 주 피복재로 TTP를 대상으로 하였고, 주기 및 파고를 다양한 조건에서 수리실험을 수행하였다. 본 연구의 실험결과는 월파량 계측을 통해 분석된 평균 월파량을 적절한 산정식으로 나타내기 위해 EurOtop(2007)의 기존 월파량 산정식 형태에 대입하여 비교하여 분석하였다. 따라서, 본 논문은 월파량 산정식 제시를 통해 보다 합리적인 항만구조물의 마루높이 산정이 가능하게 하고, 또한 월파량 산정과 관련된 실험자료 구축을 통해 신뢰성해석 자료 및 수치모형의 검증 자료로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

This paper examines port redevelopment and urban regeneration projects of foreign advanced countries and investigates policy implications to apply to Korean port cities. Busan and Incheon have started to redevelop old port facilities located near old city centers and they have been faced several problems. Significant findings are found from the experiences of Inner Harbor in Baltimore, Darling Harbor in Sydney, Hafencity in Hamburg, Eastern Dockland in Amsterdam and Minatomirai 21 in Yokohama etc. At first, port and city have to be integrated to an unique regeneration project in order to solve the spatially disconnected problems originated from separate development in the initial stage. Preservation of historical regional assets is highly recommended to characterize its own value which is emphasized in the age of post modernism. Accurate and consistent design guidelines of port cities are stressed to build high standard cities. In the perspective of investigating a new business model, anchor facilities and place marketing strategies are introduced to induce more people to the place specially in the beginning stage. In addition, creative financing methods and competent implementing bodies are emphasized to running the projects stably regardless of real estate market status.

Mokpo port marked the $131^{st}$ anniversary of its opening in 2018. while the Mokpo has taken the new port development initiatives, it is limited by inefficient port functioning due to the lack of maritime port policy and government investment. Hence, port logistics has not been activated. Additionally, studies on Mokpo port have not been conducted, and knowledge available on the port is declarative in nature. On the other hand, research on port competitiveness focuses on how to analyze the factors that determine port competitiveness. Therefore, this study was intended to expand the existing research on Mokpo port and conduct an analysis of non-competitiveness factors and suggested improvements by considering the operational aspect of Mokpo port. In this regard the importance of non-competitiveness factors was assessed through an analytic hierarchy process(AHP) analysis and the influence of the non-competitiveness factors was analyzed through an fuzzy structural modeling(FSM) analysis. The result of the AHP analysis show ed the important non-competitiveness factors included the deactivation of industrial complexes around Mokpo port, the number of liner route, the cost of the pilot and tug. Accor ding to the FSM analysis, the top level included the non-competitive factors at Mokpo port; the intermediate level included the number of liner routes, cost of pilot and tug, enrance and clearance fee, costs of inland transportation, fee for port facilities, and loading and unloading costs; and the bottom level comprised the most non-competitive factors including the deactivation of industrial complexes around Mokpo port, hinterland connectivity, access to international port, incentives, and cost of transportation and storage. Based on the results of analysis, improvements were suggested for non-competitive factors of Mokpo.

The purpose of this study is to provide a comparative evaluation of container port criteria at four major container ports in the Bay of Bengal, including Colombo Port in Sri Lanka, Chennai Port in India, Chittagong Port in Bangladesh and Yangon Port in Myanmar. Important container port selection criteria are identified and comparisons among container ports are made using previous studies, personal interviews and questionnaires, completed by top shipping companies, freight forwarders, logistics service providers, and experts in Myanmar. The AHP method is used to verify the research model and hypothesis. This study identified five main criteria and eleven sub-criteria when choosing potential regional hub ports among the four ports in the Bay of Bengal. The main findings from the five main criteria suggest that port efficiency is the highest priority criteria, and the second priority is port costs. The criteria of geographical location and available port facilities are the third and fourth most important, respectively, and the last priority is port's hinterland. Regarding the relative competition among these ports, Colombo Port obtained the highest priority among the four influential factors except for port hinterland. This study has certain limitations that will require future research. First, the sample group for the population size is relatively small. Second, interviewees had limited experience answering questionnaires using this methodology and a limited amount of time was available for respondents for the interviews.
