Mooring fittings mean various devices and fittings to safely fasten vessels to quays, jetties and sea-floating buoys, etc. They include mooing winches, capstans, chocks, fairleads, guide rollers, bollards, and bitts. Not only the seats and reinforced parts for the installation of fittings but also ropes and chains for mooring and chain stoppers can be also considered. Because of damages to mooring fittings during mooring directly related to large-scale accidents such as the drifting of vessels, mooring fittings with strength appropriate for the physical features of the vessels must be installed. The reinforcement of the vessels on which the mooring fittings are installed must be designed to withstand the loads transferred from the fittings as well. Also mooring fittings with efficient strength should be required because damaged ships lead to sea pollution such as oil or fuel oil spillage. This study has been performed by the Finite Element Method for two aspects of closed chocks which are divided into structure-supporting shapes and working load. In the case of structure-supporting shapes, they have been performed in the field of sheet and bulwark. As for working load, it has been analyzed according to working load direction such as chock's side and below. At first, strength analysis for unique closed chocks has been carried out by using the Finite Element Method, they are applied for the situation when vessels pass by the panama canal. And then the experiment has been done to verify the analyzed date obtained by FEM. The experimental results were found to be similar to the numerical results with up to 16% difference. On the basis of the results obtained, standardization has been carried out by the Finite Element Method for various sizes of closed chocks.

It has been developed large mooring fittings having the capacity of 160 tons and 180 tons installed on 170K LNG FSRU. The finite element analysis for the mooring fittings was carried out in order to check the structural integrity and to confirm satisfaction of the rule requirements. The 3 kinds of mooring fittings such as chock, bollard and universal fairlead are selected for FE analysis and load test. According to the FE analysis results, all the stress levels satisfied the acceptance criteria guided by the IACS UR A2, ISO standard, ship rules and OCIMF. As test results under design load, no structural defects were found.

The ship’s safe mooring stability is a principles for the safe cargo handling works at the mooring berth. Today numerous standards, guidelines and recommendations concerning mooring practices, fittings and equipments exist throughout the worldwide maritime industries. In recently, the mooring facilities were constructed as dolphin types at the open sea area apart far from shoreside instead of enclosed coastline area in accordance with increasing ship’s size and for preventing environmental pollution. Therefore the exciting wave condition must be considered as a basic environmental criteria with the wind force and current force for all of the mooring ships at the sea berth facilities. In this study, this added wave force as one of the environmental external forces by using the theoretical formula was applied to the LNG ship in Pyeongtaeg harbor needed the special mooring stability of the sea berth. Through this research, it can be confirmed that wave force is the very important factor in the mooring force and the strength of wave force works much more in the full laden condition than in the lightship condition. And also the wave force changes to non-linear states according to the wave frequency and wave length. In addition, the maximum limit criteria of environmental force of prohibiting the entering ship on the berth and loading works controlled by the port authority concerned of Pyeongtaeg port fully satisfies the condition of the mooring limit force recommended by OCIMF that the safe permitted force of the mooring line have to be within 55 % of MBL.

선박이 부두에 안전하게 계류 및 예인하기 위해서는 관련 국제규정에 부합하는 설계를 해야 한다. 그러나 현재까지도 일부 소형 조선소 및 설계 회사에서는 그 내용을 정확히 숙지하지 못하고 있는 경우가 많다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 예인 및 계류설비에 관한 국제규정을 살펴보고, 최신 발효된 MEG4(Mooring equipment guideline 4) 기준에 만족하는 대표적인 계류 의장품인 볼라드(Bollard)와 쵸크(Chock)를 개발하고자 한다. 볼라드는 계류 밧줄을 선체에 고박하기 위한 의장품이며, 일반적으로 2개의 기둥으로, 대부분은 8자 매듭 형태로 사용하고 있다. 쵸크는 선외에서 선내로 들어오는 계류 밧줄의 방향을 전환하고, 밧줄의 손상을 방지하기 위하여 곡률을 갖는 주물방식으로 제작한다. 이 두 가지 계류 의장품은 선박의 선수와 선미, 중앙부 측면에서 많이 사용되고 있다. 최근 컨테이너선 및 LNG 운반선의 크기 증가로 인하여, 계류 밧줄 하중이 증가하고 있으며, 계류 의장품도 안전사용하중(Safe working load)이 변경되어야 한다. 본 연구에서는 유한요소해석 모델링을 통한 허용응력 평가법 결과를 정리하고, 분석하였다. 추가적으로 비선형 붕괴 거동 평가를 통하여, 안전사용하중 결정에 대한 검증을 수행하였고, 탄성영역 내 설계가 되었음을 확인하였다. 연구에서 제안하는 평가법 및 기준, 그리고 해석절차는 향후 유사 의장품 개발 시 참조가 가능하다.

Common structural rules of JBP(Joint Bulker Project) and JTP(Joint Tanker Project), which will come into effect in 2006, invoke the necessity of the ultimate limit state(ULS) design for ship structures. Even though the many applications of ULS analysis have been performed for ship structures, there have few studies carried out for deck machineries and their supporting structures. Recently four major Korean shipbuilders(DSME, HHI, HHIC, SHI) jointly developed and proposed a new design standards for mooring fittings and also proposed the SWL (Safety Working Load) obtained based on the first yield criterion. In this study, various ultimate strength analyses were performed for bollards and their foundation structures whose yield strengths were quantified by the research consortium. Prior to performing the ultimate strength analyses, the numerical calculation method was substantiated with the test results provided in the joint work report. Based upon the results of this study, it can be concluded that the reinforcements to increase the yield strength are not always resulted in the enhancement of the ultimate strength. Furthermore, the additional production costs for the reinforcements can not be rewarded by the ultimate strength. Therefore, another alternative arrangements should be developed in the view point of ultimate strength.
