This experimental paper deals with the performance of tanks that are turned the active A.R.T(Anti-Rolling Tank) when the fluid transfers from wing tank to the opposite tank by the power developed by the automatic control system (INTERING Stabilizer), which was installed in the fishery training ship T/S. A - RA (G/T:990 tons) of Cheju National University. In this paper, the author has tested the performance of INTERING Stabilizer for the signals obtained by the inclinometer in irregular waves and compared with the results obtained in passive mode operation at stop and at various ship speeds. The performances of the system were confirmed the results as follows through the tests: 1. The average amplitude and significant roll (${\pi}$1/3) of the passive and active mode operations in the condition of stoped engine and underway were obtained 8.30$^{\circ}$, 4.37$^{\circ}$, 8.30$^{\circ}$, 4.37$^{\circ}$, and 5.01$^{\circ}$, 4.36$^{\circ}$, 5.50$^{\circ}$, 5.10$^{\circ}$, respectively. 2. The rates of performance of active mode operations were carried out during a sea trial in the condition of stop engine and underway resulted in 47.5%, 12.7%, respectively, therefore the active mode operation estimated to be improved more than passive mode operation. 3. Active - A.R.T by INTERING Stabilizer didn't affect the amplitude of pitching.

선박은 근본적으로 파랑이 향상 존재하는 해상에서 운항하게 되므로 파랑 중에서의 선체운동 여객, 승무원, 화물 및 선박 자체의 안전과 밀접한 관계를 가지게 된다. 뿐만 아니라 선박의 운동은 해상에서의 각종 활동과 임무수행의 정도를 결정하는 주요한 인자가 되고 있다. 횡동요(Rolling)는 6 자유도 운동 가운데에서 가장 중요한 운동이며, 선박들이 근본적으로 횡동요에 대하여 낮은 감쇠특성을 갖고 있기 때문에 안정성 측면에서 볼 때에 가장 많이 제어되어 왔다. (중략)

The roll motion of a general vessel, which is more influenced by resonance as compared to other motions, adversely affects the passenger and hull. Therefore, reducing the roll motion through an anti-rolling system is critical, and most ships use various devices such as anti-rolling tanks, bilge keels, and fin stabilizers to accomplish this. In this study, a simplified model is developed for the application of an anti-rolling device for unmanned semi-submersible vessels. The applied anti-rolling device is installed on the stern and stem of a ship using a pair of servo motors with added weight, and the motor is controlled through the Arduino. The moment of the motor is designed and implemented based on a mathematical model such that it is calculated through the restoring force according to the heel angle of the ship. The performance of the proposed system was verified by utilizing the roll damping coefficient calculated by the free-roll decay test and logarithmic decrement method and was validated by a towing tank test. The system is expected to be used for unmanned vessels to perform sustainable missions.

Reduction of a ship's rolling is the most important performance requirement for improving the safety of the crew on board and preventing damage to cargos as well as improving the comfort of the ride. A mass driving anti-rolling system (MO-ARS) might be one candidate of several systems against the ship's rolling. As the movable range of the mass on the ship is finite, the control system must include restriction on the mass position to protect the device and the ship. This restriction usually causes windup phenomenon and control performance is deteriorated seriously. Two control algorithms, anti-windup control and saturated sliding mode control, are studied in this paper. Control performance and robustness problem are checked out by numerical simulations.

Recently, very large container ships are emerging as shipment of containers is expected to rapidly increase near future. A possibility of roll resonant motion in a seaway is expected to noticeably increase for large container ships of which capacity ranges 8,000 to 15,000 TEU due to relatively wide breadth and shallow draft comparing to conventional container ships. In this paper, a design and performance evaluation of a fin stabilizer for a 9,000 TEU container ship is carried out. The weak opposed control concept is adopted for the design. Time domain simulations and model tests are performed for performance evaluation. The design prediction, the model tests and the simulations show generally good agreements.

A ship operating in rough sea may suffer from an undesirable motion which may severely degrade the performance of equipment onboard and give a person an uncomfortable feeling. Hence, roll stabilization received a considerable attention and various devices including bilge keels, stabilizing fins, gyroscopic, anti-rolling tanks, rudders and flaps have been conceived and utilized for the purpose. The Coanda effect is evident when a jet stream is applied tangential to a curved surface of a hydrofoil since then the jet increases the circulation around the foil and consequently the lift. Model tests and numerical simulation have been conducted to examine the practicality of a fixed type fin stabilizer augmented by the Coanda jet. The results show that the lift coefficient of the modified Coanda fin at the zero angle of attack identically coincides with that of the original fin at ${\alpha}=\26^{\circ}$ when Coanda jet is supplied at the rate of $C_j$ = 0.25. It is also shown that fixed type fin stabilizers for active control of the motions of ships and the other mobile units without rotation can be put to practical use if the Coanda effect is applied.

The rolling motion of a floating body makes crews and passengers exhausted and/or applies forces to the structure to cause damage; it might even upset the body. Therefore, almost all ships are equipped with bilge keels for anti-rolling; in special cases, an anti-rolling tank(ART) or fin stabilizer or gyroscope could be installed. But an ART requires a large capacity to install it, and a fin stabilizer and gyroscope need great costs to install and also many expenses to operate. The authors suggest the use of an anti-rolling pendulum(ARP), and they showed that the ARP is effective to reduce rolling by experiments and via a Runge-Kutta analysis. This paper introduces the linearized 2 degrees of freedom with a viscous damping system for a ship equipped with ARP; it also shows the validation of the linearized analysis for the ship's roll motion. The paper proposes an optimum ARP on the basis of the justified model. The case of the 7.7kg model with ship 20g ARP of a mass ratio of 0.26%, is the most effective for reducing roll motion. The paper shows the ARPs with various mass ratios are effective for reducing the roll motion of a ship by free decaying roll experiments.

예선이 부선을 예인줄로 연결하여 운항할 시 예인줄에 걸리는 장력 및 형상을 예인줄을 다물체로 분할하여 모델링하였다. 이러한 예인줄 요소에 대한 횡동요를 제외한 5자유도 운동방정식을 구성하고, 각 요소들에 작용하는 힘을 정식화하여 연성 운동방정식을 도출하였다. 예인줄 요소들 간에는 예인줄의 재료 특성에 따른 강성을 가진 스프링과 감쇠장치로 연결하여 동력학적 조건을 부가하였고, 요소의 변형을 허용하는 형태로 운동학적 조건은 설정하지 않았다. 예인줄의 다물체 모델링의 검증을 위하여 단순 낙하, 직진, 사인파 형태로 지그재그로 움직이는 예선과 단순 항력체로 가정한 부선의 운동에 대한 시뮬레이션을 수행하였다.
