The purpose of the present study was to investigate the mariner's information characteristics in ship-ta-ship collision situation using the full mission ship-handling simulator. Risk levels of ship-to-ship collision were manipulated by whether the target ship complies with the naval regulations and by movement patterns of target ship. Dependent variables reflecting mariner's information characteristics in ship-ta-ship collision situation were measured in terms of radar detection reaction time, free recall performance of past navigation situation, and subjective ratings for the task difficulty. The results showed that, in general, the mariners appeared to be deteriorated in their radar detection reaction time and free recall performance as the risk of ship-ta-ship collision increased. Also, the mariners tended to rate required tasks more difficult in the high risk ship-ta-ship collision situation.

Although there are many kinds of advanced ballast water management systems, pioneering studies for ballast-water free ship and minimal ballast water ship concepts are in progress. In this study, the existing alternatives of ballast water are reviewed and a new design concept is studied on the basis of the existing bulk carrier hull form. To develop a new design alternative which has minimal ballast for ballast water discharge free operation, the new concept should have technical feasibilities that are related to the role of the ballast water, berth access, loading constraints, etc. For this purpose, a simplified systems engineering basis design approach is adopted using a business model as the system analysis and control tool. To check the performance feasibility of the new concept, ship resistance performance is reviewed based on a model scale ship resistance performance analysis.

In December 2002, International Maritime Organization (IMO) has adopted the Resolution MSA.137(76) Standards for the Ship Maneuverability. For applying the standards, we have to estimate and evaluate the Maneuverability of a ship at the design stage in difference of trim and displacement as accurate as possible. In this paper, the effect of loading condition on the ship Maneuverability was investigated through 3 methods : numerical simulation, free running model ship and real ship data.. Firstly, We carried out numerical simulation, free running model ship experiments and real ship experiments at ballast condition, half loaded condition and full loaded condition with difference of trim.. Secondly, by comparing these results of 3 methods, we draw out the trend of ship Maneuverability due to the change of trim and displacement of a ship.

The recent huge maritime casualties and their environmental impacts showed that human error in ship navigation is one of the primary causes leading to accidents. In order to reduce maritime accidents and human errors in ship navigation, it is very important and urgent to improve the skills of navigators and develop advanced navigation support system for ship operations. For example, a SCMS(Ship Control and Management System), INS(Integrated Navigation System) and PCS(propulsion Control System) which are considered as a ship automation system was operated in ship. Furthermore, the most recent automation ships collision incidents warn us that only making automation ships alone is not sufficient for improving ship safety. Effective interaction between officer and ship automation system is essential for safety. In this paper, the interactive relationship between officer and the ship automation system was studied, then the research result for reducing maritime casualties will be presented.

The rapid growth of IT technology has enabled ship automation systems to gain better functionality and safety with reduced costs and crew numbers. Nowadays, the remote maintenance services for the systems are required because a ship may be located in a very remote area. To provide the remote maintenance services, some issues such as how to collect the ship automation systems data, how to monitor a ship's data from onshore offices, how to get support from experts while sailing, and how to reduce the maintenance costs, should be addressed. In this paper, we propose a remote ship maintenance system for remote monitoring and diagnostics of ship automation systems, which is based on both a ship area network to integrate separate system networks and a ship-shore communication infrastructure to support a remote access using satellite communications. Finally, we present the function test to verify the applicability of the proposed system.

Ship maneuvering performance is usually estimated in calm water conditions which provide valuable information about the ship maneuvering characteristics at the early design stage. However, the course-keeping ability and the maneuvering performance of a ship can be significantly affected by the presence of waves when ship maneuvers in real sea condition. Therefore, it is necessary to understand the maneuvering behavior of a ship in waves in the viewpoint of ship safety in the design stage. In this study, the force and yaw moment acting on a moving ship in regular waves with different wave length and wave direction will be performed in the square wave tank in Changwon National University. The results of this study can be used to help a person to design a ship hull with the best ship maneuverability in waves and disseminate knowledge on predicting ship maneuvering in regular waves in various wave directions.

The Jiao Guan Ship was a sea ship, used by Zhang Baogao, the Silla great sea merchant, in the marine trade with china during the 8th cetury A.D. and the 9th century A.D. Studying on the Ship type of the Jiao Guan Ship is the urgent problem to be solved, in the sphere of learning abuot the history of communication between China and Korea. The authors take the initial probe into this subject , by researching Zhang Baogao's marie activities, and point out that the Jiao Guan Ship's original type should be the Sha Ship which was the sea ship sailing the sea in northern China , in the tang Dynasty. At the same time, the authors estimate the constructions and equipment of the ship.

In the ship-handling simulator, it is important for a ship manoeuvring model to represent the dynamic characteristic of a ship and to be simple for reducing calculation time. Especially, even if principal dimensions of a ship are given in initial design stage, or manoeuvring test data are only given by model or real ship's trials, simulations are often needed to check the manoeuvrability of a ship. In this paper, a simple manoeuvring model based on turning test data of a ship is mathematically developed. And the simulation results are verified by comparing with turning test results of a real ship.

The ship surveyor makes a scheme of reasonable ship operation by examining whether the ship has been properly constructed in accordance with the rule of classification societies and international conventions or whether the facilities of the ship in operation meet the standard stipulated by law. Even though the ship surveyors of classification society generally consist of people who have the skill of design or operation of a ship, it takes a long time to train a surveyor to the maturity level. This paper describes the development of survey simulator based on virtual ship environment that enables the surveyor minimize trial and errors to survey the ships. By using VR(Virtual Reality) based survey simulator, surveyors possibly achieve improvement of competence in survey quality by means of safe and immersive training environment. In order to improve the usability and utility of the VR simulator, the ship 3D model has been generated using 3D CAD model for design and production in shipyard. Through this, we suggested the possibility of consistent use of 3D model as the digital twin of a ship.
