For the numerical analysis of free oscillation characteristics in a harbor with general boundary and bottom topography, finite element method is applied. The governing Helmholtz equation is transformed into a generalized matrix eigenvalue problem using the standard finite element procedure. A computer code is developed for the numerical evaluation of natural frequencies and free oscillation modes. In the eigensolution process, a shifting strategy is devised for the treatment of numerical singularity. Scaling of coefficient matrix is also found to be effective for the alleviation of numerical ill-conditioning. For the test problems, firstly, analytical and numerical solutions are compared and validity of the code is obtained. Hence the method is successfully applicable for the real-world problems with general geometric boundaries and bottom topography.

A Galerkin finite element model for the analysis of harbor oscillation has been developed based on the extended mild-slope equation. Infinite elements are used to accomodate the radiation condition at infinity and joint elements to treat the matching conditions at the harbor entrance which include the energy loss due to flow separation. The numerical tests for rectangular harbors with fully or partially open entrances show that the energy loss at the harbor entrance considerably reduces the the amplification ratios at the innermost parts of the harbors and that the amplification ratios decrease considerably with increasing incident wave heights and jet lengths at the harbor entrance. Application of the model to the Gamcheon harbor show that when the incident wave amplitude is small the amplification ratios rather increase when the entrance energy loss is included than when ignored because of the shift of the resonance periods. Even though the entrance energy loss was insignificant for the measured long-period incident waves, it would be of great importance if the incident waves were large as in the attack of tsunamis. The resonance period of the Helmholtz mode at the Gamcheon Harbor was calculated to be 31 minutes, which agrees well with the measured one between 27 and 33.3 minutes. The measured resonance periods between 9.4 and 12.1 minutes and 5.2 and 6.2 minutes were also calculated by the numerical model as 10.4 minutes and 6.6 or 5.6 minutes, indicating good performance of the model. On the other hand, it was shown that a variety of oscillation modes exists in the Gamcheon Harbor and lateral resonances of considerable amplification ratios also exist at the periods of 3.6 and 1.6 minutes as in the Young-II Bay.

This study deals with the case of a fixed floating structure(FFS) at the mouth of a rectangular harbor under the action of waves represented by the linear wave theory. Modified forms of the mild-slope equation is applied to the propagation of regular wave over constant water depth. The model is extended to include bottom friction and boundary absorption. A hybrid element approximation is used for calculation of linear wave oscillation in and near coastal harbor. Modification of the model was necessary for the FFS. For the conditions tested, the results of laboratory experiments by Ippen and Goda(1963), and Lee (1969) are compared with the calculated one from this model. The cases of flat cylinderical structures, both fixed and floating, were taken to be in an intermediate water depth.

A two-dimensional numerical model is developed to investigate the phenomenon of forced seiche caused by the incident long waves. This model is applied to Young-il Bay and Pohang New Harbor, where the seiche is most frequently observed and the damage of the seiche is serious compared with the other harbors in Korea. Some results on this study are as follows; 1. The natural periods of the first two modes obtained from the present model are about 70 and 25 minutes respectively for Young-il Bay, and about 25 and 7.5 minutes for Pohang New Harbor. These results are well consistent with those obtained by the theoretical formula, the spectral analysis, and the statistical investigation of the recorded data. 2. Since the fundamental natural period of Pohang New Harbor is almost the same as the second natural period of Young-il Bay, the seiche in Pohang New Harbor can be strongly amplified by the Oscillation in Young-il Bay. Therefore, the most strong seiche in Pohang New Harbor can occur when the long wave of about 25-minute period come into Young-il Bay.

This study proposed an estimation method of allowable wave height for loading and unloading of the ship and evaluation of effective working days considering moored ship motion that is affected by sip sizes, mooring conditions, wave periods and directions. The method was examined validity by comparison with wave field data at pier $8^{th}$ in Pohang New Harbor. The wave field data obtained with wave height of 0.10~0.75 m and wave period of 7~13 s in ship sizes of 800~35,000 ton when a downtimes have occurred. On the other hand, the results of allowable wave height for loading and unloading of the ship in this method have obtained with wave heights of 0.19~0.50 m and wave periods of 8~12 s for ship sizes of 5,000, 10,000 and 30,000 ton. Thus this method well reproduced the field data respond to various a ship sizes and wave periods. And the results of this in Korea are didn't respond to various the ship sizes and wave periods, and we h method tended to decrease in 16~62 percent when have considered long wave, and it is decreased in 0~46 percent when didn't consider long wave than design standards in case of the ship sizes of 5,000~30,000 ton, wave period of 12 s and wave angle of $75^{\circ}$. The allowable wave heights for loading and unloading of the ship proposed by design standards in Korea have found that overestimated on smaller than 10,000 ton. On the other hand, the rate of effective working days considering ship motion at pier $8^{th}$ in Pohang New Harbor reduced in 6.5 percent when compare with the results without considering ship motion.

해안역에서의 대규모 개발은 파랑에너지의 전파에 상당한 변화를 초래한다. 특히, 항만내로 전파되는 파랑장을 변화시켜 기존의 에너지 전달체계에 큰 영향을 야기한다. 따라서, 이러한 파랑에너지의 변화를 사전에 예측하여 항만내의 선박이나 항만구조물의 피해를 막을 수 있다. 그러나 일반적으로 수행되는 항만내의 파랑장 검토 즉, 정온도 검토는 주로 공학적으로 문제가 되는 주기 10~20sec의 풍파와 너울성 파랑에 대하여 수행되고 있다. 그러나 실제 현장에서는 20sec 이상의 장주기 파랑에 의한 선박이나 항만구조물에 상당한 피해를 가져오기도 하지만 이로 인해 연간 부두 접안율이 낮아 항만운영에 어려움을 겪고 있다. 본 실험은 대규모 개발에 따른 장주기 파랑에 의한 반응특성과 부진동의 영향을 검토하였다. 특히, 항내 수제선에 개발이 집중적으로 이루어져 내륙측으로 항만수역을 보완하거나 변경이 어려운 경우 장주기파로 인한 부진동의 영향을 저감하기 위한 시도로 공진수역을 도입하였으며, 이에 대한 반응 특성을 분석하여 장래 항만 재배치 계획에 반영할 수 있는 근거가 될 수 있을 것으로 본다.

Everyday about 90% of cargos are delivered by ships, and thousands of vessels enter and depart the international container harbors such as Shanghai, Singapore, Hong Kong, Busan, Rotterdam, etc. Maneuvering at harbor is known as the most sophisticated and difficult procedure, because the effectiveness of actuators during low speed berthing is reduced. In this paper, a new berthing method is discussed. Tugboats are combined with damper systems to ensure safe berthing. A mathematical model describing the interaction between unactuated ship, tugboats and damper systems is presented. An optimal controller is designed to maneuver the ship without oscillation and overshoot. MCL (Marine Cybernetics Lab) model ship is used to evaluate the efficiency of the proposed approach through MatLab simulation.

Subgrid scale stabilization method is applied to Woo and Liu(2004)'s extended Boussinesq FEM numerical model to eliminate the 2dx wiggles. In order to optimize the computational efficiency, Hessian operator is introduced and the matrix of velocity vector is combined to one matrix for solving matrix equations. The mass lumping technique is also applied to the matrix equations of auxiliary variables. The newly developed code is applied to simulate Vincent and Briggs(1989)' wave transformation experiments and the results show that the numerical solution is almost wiggle-free and it matches very well with experimental data. Due to improvement of computational efficiency and wiggle reduction, it is plausible to apply this model to a realistic problem such as harbor oscillation problems.
