  • Corrosion of reinforced concrete structures in marine environment is one of the most important mechanism of deterioration. However, conventional rehabilitation techniques in tidal zone, which consist of removing delaminated areas of concrete, cleaning affected steel and patching with portland cements mortar, have proven to be ineffective for marine structures. Also, repairs are often repeated every several years. The purpose of this report is to announce appropriate repair method of highway bridge damaged by chloride attack in marine environment (application of cathodic protection) using FRP and antiwashout underwater mortar.

  • The model exchange from CAD system to CAE system in valid and effective manner is the major issue of automatic analysis modelling of ship structure. However, model exchange approaches based on the neutral CAD file have resulted in invalid model exchange that could not properly reflect the characteristics of CAD model and CAE model of ship structure. This paper presents the new approach of n-to-n mapping to exchange ship structure model in heterogeneous CAD/CAE environments. In this study, the common model called 'unified ship model for analysis' to directly extract proper information from different CAD systems for ship structural analysis is proposed. Moreover, a command language based model interfacing technique to construct an idealized model for analysis job is also proposed. The proposed approach has been actually implemented in DSME CAD/CAE environment of ship structure such as TRIBON system, PATRAN system and FLUENT system. The applicability and effectiveness of the proposed approach was verified by applying it to the real analysis project for fore-body of ship and block lifting. This application results show that the proposed approach can be effectively used for heterogeneous CAD/CAE environment.

  • AIS is the most important navigation equipment for the identification of other ships, etc. However, the AIS overload problem has been raised recently due to an increase in AIS equipped vessels. The government is planning to introduce the wireless LTE network at 100 km offshore as part of the SMART-Navigation project. Continuous development and dissemination of the services available through such platforms will be necessary to achieve major goals such as marine accident prevention and environmental protection. In this study, we applied a WAVE communication system, which could be the basis for the development of such services. As a result, reliable data transmission was confirmed for a range of communication of approx. 5 miles, although the service was limited to 1 km in road traffic. Therefore, it is expected that WAVE communication technology will be used to prevent marine accidents through such efforts as collision avoidance and the transfer of marine safety information between ships.

  • This study introduces the navigational environment database(DB) compiling water depth, sediment type and marine managed areas (MMAs) in coastal waters of South Korea. The water depth and sediment data were constructed by combining their sparse points of electronic navigation chart and survey data with high spatial resolution using the inverse distance weighting and natural neighbor interpolation method included in ArcGIS. The MMAs were integrated based on all shapefiles provided by several government agencies using ArcGIS because the areas should be used in an emergency case of ship. To test the validity of the constructed DB, we conducted a test application for grounding and anchoring zones using a ship accident case. The result revealed each area of possible grounding candidates and anchorages is calculated and displayed properly, excluding obstacle places.

  • According to the current status of marine accidents in Korea, the number of accidents is steadily increasing by an approximate average of 8.5% per year, and marine accidents are steadily increasing for ships and structures such as floating barges, tugboats, ferries and floating platforms except for fishing ships. In this study, domestic floating structures were classified according to the type of floating structure, and the regulation system and the scope of the application of floating marine structures were schematically illustrated according to related domestic laws such as the Ship Safety Act, Ship Act and Fishing Management and Promotion Act. In addition, considering the state of the marine environment, it was intended to discover structurally delicate parts and risk factors early in blinded safety spots in applying domestic regulations, and to derive effective improvement measures for the discovered risk factors.

  • Various numerical models that have been developed for marine environments and applied to coastal waters in USA were introduced briefly. Inter alia, with regard to an integrated monitoring and modeling system, the main features and outline of system, the system architecture for data management and representation system, and the incorporation of internet based technology were described. An example of application of an integrated system to coastal waters was also presented. The prospective research works to improve the capabilities and to advance the functionality of an integrated monitoring, modeling and management system were suggested to be the instrumentations for various monitoring parameters, the new development and/or advancement of various numerical models, the relevant internet based technologies. etc..

  • Marine Structures are very costly and need a continuous inspection and maintenance routine. The most effective way to control the structural health is the application of an expert system that can evaluate the importance of any distress on the structure and provide a maintenance program. An extensive literature review, interviews with expert supervisors and a national survey are used to build a decision support system for concrete structures in sea environment. Decision trees are the main rules in this system. The system input is inspection information and the system output is the main cause(s) of distress(es) and the best repair method(s). Economic condition, severity of distress, distress situation, and new technologies and the most repeated classical methods are considered to choose the best repair method. A case study demonstrates the application of the developed decision support system for a type of marine structure.

  • Marine casuality causes not only loss of lives and ships, but also severs damages to marine environment and related economic activities such as fishing industry, sea farming, and tourist industry. Basically, the great effort should be made to prevent the occurrence of maritime accidents by any means. However, once accident has occurred, the salvage works should be done rapidly and properly based on theoretical and technical informations, which could minimize the risk during salvage operation and the overall damage from the maritime accidents. Generally, to calculate accurate hydrostatics of a stranded ship, a large amount of input data is needed. But, an availability and a reliability of input data cannot be guaranteed in most situations, and the adequate time required for preparing all input data is not allowed to perform the timely operations of salvage. In this paper, the development process of simple computer program for salvage operation using limited input data is introduced and its application example is presented. This program was developed to provide technical support for planning salvage operations in the grounding accident.
