쐐기형 레일클램프는 초기에는 작은 압착력으로 레일을 압착하다가 바람이 불면 쐐기작용에 의해 큰 압착력으로 레일을 압착하는 구조를 가지고 있다. 이 때 쐐기작용을 위해 레일클램프는 레일을 따라 이동하게 되는데, 만약 지지대를 설치하지 않으면 밀림거리가 증가하여 구조물을 파괴에 이르게 하는 과부하가 발생하게 되므로 이를 방지하기 위한 지지대를 적절히 설치하여야 한다. 이러한 지지대의 적정위치는 초기압착력과 쐐기각에 따라서 결정되므로, 본 연구에서는 이러한 초기압착력과 지지대의 적정위치사이의 관계에 대하여 살펴보기 위하여 5가지 쐐기각을 설계변수로 하여 유한요소해석을 수행하였다.

The 1MW OTEC (Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion) platform was designed for application in equatorial seas. In this study, the OTEC platform was investigated using numerical and experimental methods. An octagon-shaped OTEC platform was investigated using the Ocean Engineering Basin of KRISO. These experiments included various tests of regular waves, irregular waves and irregular waves with current (wave+current). The responses of the platform in regular waves showed good agreement between the numerical and experimental results, including the motion RAO, wave run up, and mean drift force. The peak period of heave and pitch motions were observed around 0.5 rad/s, and the effect of the total reflection was found under short wave conditions. The standard deviation (STD) of the platform motion was checked in irregular waves of equatorial and Hawaiian seas. The STD of the pitch was less than $4^{\circ}$ different from the operability requirement under equatorial conditions and the surge STD of the wave frequency showed good agreement between the numerical and experimental results. The STD values of the surge and pitch were increased 66.6% and 92.8% by the current effects in irregular waves, but the pitch STD was less than $4^{\circ}$ under equatorial conditions. This study showed that the STD of the surge was affected by spring effects. Thus, the watch circle of the platform and tension of the mooring lines must be evaluated for a specific design in the future.

Floating Production Storage and Offloading (FPSO) units have the advantages of their ability to provide storage and offloading capabilities which are not available in other types of floating production systems. In addition, FPSOs also provide a large deck area and substantial topsides payload capacity. They are in use in a variety of water depths and environments around the world. It is a good solution for offshore oil and gas development in fields where there is lack of an export pipeline system to shore. However due to their inherently high motions in waves, they are limited in the types of risers they can host. The Low Motion FPSO (LM-FPSO) is a novel design that is developed to maintain the advantages of the conventional FPSOs while offering significantly lower motion responses. The LM-FPSO design generally consists of a box-shape hull with large storage capacity, a free-hanging solid ballast tank (SBT) located certain distance below the hull keel, a few groups of tendons arranged to connect the SBT to the hull, a mooring system for station keeping, and a riser system. The addition of SBT to the floater results in a significant increase in heave, roll and pitch natural periods, mainly through the mass and added mass of the SBT, which significantly reduces motions in the wave frequency range. Model tests were performed at the Korea Research Institute of Ships & Ocean Engineering (KRISO) in the fall of 2016. An analytical model of the basin model (MOM) was created in Orcaflex and calibrated against the basin-model. Good agreement is achieved between global performance results from MOM's predictions and basin model measurements. The model test measurements have further verified the superior motion response of LM-FPSO. In this paper, numerical results are presented to demonstrate the comparison and correlation of the MOM results with model test measurements. The verification of the superior motion response through model test measurements is also presented in this paper.

Recently, the interest in marine leisure activities has been growing rapidly with the work-life balance trend. In response to this demand, the Korean government is supporting fostering and revitalizing the relevant industries and facilities. In particular, a marina has been making efforts to change itself into a resort with multiple amenities instead of a simple mooring facility. However, the facilities in a marina for the transport of marine leisure equipment mostly consist of cranes and boat-lifts using ropes, which can result in incidents such as damage and accidents during lifting or movement. This paper proposes the equipment and support system for the safe transportation of marine leisure ships. Aluminum transport equipment was designed by performing a structural analysis to achieve a lighter weight than the existing steel products. In addition, a safety support system with alarms for tilting or obstacles and a slope monitoring system was developed to enhance the safety during operation and transportation. The safety support system developed in this study was implemented and installed in the transport system, and verified through commissioning on land.

A series of model tests was performed to evaluate the survivability of an articulated tower-type buoy structure under harsh environmental conditions. The buoy structure consisted of three long pipes, a buoyancy module, and top equipment. The scale model was made of acrylic pipe and plastic with a scale ratio of 1/22. The experiments were carried out at the ocean engineering basin of KRISO. The performance of the buoy structure was investigated under waves only and under combined environmental conditions from sea state (SS) 5 to 7. A nonlinear time-domain numerical simulation was conducted using the mooring analysis program OrcaFlex. The survivability of the buoy was analyzed based on three factors: the pitch motion, submergence of the top structure, and anchor reaction force. The model test results were directly compared to the results of numerical simulations. The effects of the sea state and combined environment on the performance of the buoy structure were investigated.

Interest in renewable energy is rapidly growing around the world. One of the most popular renewable energy sources is solar power, and photovoltaic (PV) systems are the most representative route for generating solar energy. However, with the growing adoption of solar power systems, the demand for land on which to install these systems has increased, which has caused environmental degradation. Recently, floating PV systems have been designed to utilize idle water surface areas of dams, rivers, and oceans. Because floating PV systems will be exposed to harsh environmental stresses, the safety of such systems should be secured before installation. In this study, the structural robustness of a floating PV system was analyzed by conducting numerical simulation to investigate whether the system can withstand harsh environmental stresses, such as wind and wave loads. Additionally, conventional wind and wave load predictions based on the design method and the simulation results were compared. The comparison revealed that the design method overestimated wind and wave loads. The total drag of the PV system was significantly overestimated by the conventional design criteria, which would increase the cost of the mooring system. The simulation offers additional advantages in terms of identifying the robustness of the floating PV system because it considers real-world environmental factors.

To assess the station-keeping performance of floating structures in the Arctic region, the ice load should be considered along with other environmental loads induced by waves, wind, and currents. However, present methods for performance evaluation in the time domain are not effective in terms of time and cost. An ice load generation module is proposed based on the experimental data measured at the KRISO ice model basin. The developed module was applied to a time domain simulation. Using the results of a captive model test conducted in multiple directions, the statistical characteristics of ice loads were analyzed and processed so that an ice load corresponding to an arbitrary angle of the structure could be generated. The developed module is connected to commercial dynamic analysis software (OrcaFlex) as an external force input. Station-keeping simulation in the time domain was conducted for the same floating structure used in the model test. The mooring system was modeled and included to reflect the designed operation scenario. Simulation results show the effectiveness of the proposed ice generation module and its application to station-keeping performance evaluation. Considering the generated ice load, the designed structure can maintain a heading angle relative to ice up to 4°. Station-keeping performance is enhanced as the heading angle conforms to the drift direction. It is expected that the developed module will be used as a platform to verify station-keeping algorithms for Arctic floating structures with a dynamic positioning system.

본 연구에서는 포텐셜 이론, 섭동법, 경계요소법에 근간을 둔 이차의 시간영역 수치모델을 개발하고 이를 이용하여 폰툰형 부방파제의 성능을 평가하였다. 다양한 설계조건에 대하여 파력, 운동변위, 자유수면고, 투과율 등의 변화를 고찰하였으며, 파랑의 약 비선형성이 방파제의 동수역학적 특성에 미치는 영향을 분석하는데 주안점을 두었다. 수치모의 수행 결과, 이차의 성분 파는 동유체력, 계류장력, 운동변위에 미치는 영향이 큰 것으로 분석되었으나, 파랑의 약 비선형성이 투과율에 미치는 영향은 매우 작아 선형해석만으로도 파랑제어효율을 평가할 수 있음을 확인하였다. 또한 파랑제어효율이 우수한 수심과 흘수의 비, 파수와 폭과의 관계 등을 제시하였다.
